Premier Gladys Berejiklian has said about five million people in the state need to be fully vaccinated before borders open.
She said NSW was "bearing the brunt" of the virus, losing $1.5 billion a month due to the lack of international travel. "Yes, it's important for us to keep our citizens safe, but we also believe you can keep your citizens safe but also welcome Aussies home as well," she said.
Please release your modelling that shows 62% vaccinated is safe. Especially with very large proportion getting much less effective AZ vaccine GladysB COVID19Vaccine
How can America be vaccinating their people at a faster rate than us. We are a smaller country. Is it money like what is it
Well do it then !!! How about making sure we have the stock and reliable delivery!!Disabled people STILL have not got theirs but you Gladys were front of the line for yours! DESPICABLE from you and your mates to leave vulnerable people behind SHAME ON YOU !!
I have to wait until the end of the year to get Moderna or Pfizer. I don't trust AstraZeneca at all. It scares me. Why can't we ask for Pfizer now? We could still catch the virus from those returning from India.
Well if she let over 50’s get Pfizer she would reach the target easily
Genocide...
The covid vaccine roll-out has been a total joke. Can't wait till the next election to vote these idiots out. I'm classed as an essential worker. I work during lock downs. But I can only get the vaccine cos I turn 50 this year. Absolutely pathetic..🤬🤬🤬
You never said a TRUER word GLADYS!! That applies too ALL states!!🤔🤔👍🇦🇺😜
Every few days another 5million cases are added to the Tally of Coronavirus Cases. No way we should be opening the borders just to play Russian roulette with people's lives to get Mutant strains of Covid19 that is more contagious. There is no benefit to Covid19 mutations.
Well you can count my family of 8 out. We won't be getting any vaccines ever
How slow is this vaccine rollout compared to any other western country......
The Borders should only be opened when the world's countries are no longer considered to be in a Pandemic and a risk to the world economies. The Pandemic and covid19 is still raging and exponentially growing worldwide, irrespective of vaccines and anti virals.
Vero is much better
LOL ，No AZ pls
Such bullshit NSW repatriating Australians? Isn't it the Federal government doing the repatriations? Such rubbish from GladysB
So 5 million out of 8.5, take out the under 16’s and it’s a high percentage of the total left
Won't happen. 3 million don't want to be mRNA lab rats... go for it. auspol
This somehow was not known?
good luck
Unfortunately that’s required to win elections
I am over 50, but not interested in the AstraZeneca vaccine, the only one offered to me. There are still clotting cases in this age bracket, and coverage of newer variants is not as effective either
Well derr, that’s where all of Australia’s cases have come from. Let them in & we will lockdown Melbourne another 2 times for another extended period, lockdown Perth Brisbane SA Sydney & Nth beaches close borders stop Anzac Day major events etc ....“NO THANKS”
They should be tested b4 coming....
Get jabbed, return 2 positive tests weeks apart , BEFORE boarding any plane bound for Australia.
Nice try at mass Psy Ops on the citizens by glorifying the covid19 crap Channel 9. Give it up
This is true. But people returning (including narcissistic cricketers) know the risks when they leave our great country. Everyone knows that quarantine is so important to keeping us relatively COVID free boycottcricketaus
Open borders for students

She is a bitch
