revealed about 1 in 10 people in South Western Sydney Local Health District had been infected with COVID-19 since December, with the most cases per capita in Strathfield, Cumberland, Liverpool and Fairfield councils.
There are signs the state’s Omicron surge is retreating, with some experts predicting cases have peaked. However, authorities have cautioned that infections could spike again as mobility increases when schools return. “My community has been doing it tough through this pandemic. Will they get their booster? One hundred per cent,” he said. “Watch this space. It’ll be fine.”
“There may also be an element of complacency that has crept in because people heard year-long messages that two shots were enough. But that changed when Omicron arrived.” “Now is the time to start planning on how to address the disparities, recognising that it has been a very challenging period for governments dealing with Omicron, staff furloughs and changing advice on when to get a booster.”
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone My mother is in a nursing home in Victoria. The home is not providing booster shots until at least March. I had to take my frail mother in a wheelchair to a walk in clinic at sunshine hospital to get her a booster
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Fool me once....
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone most of us are only just moving into eligibility now, that's why. Because of eligibility and supply last year.
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone If in doubt, blame communication, “Communication is always difficult in an area that is as diverse as ours, but we are doing everything we can to get the message out,” she said. How about a comparison, state wide, of who is moving from admission to ICU, to ventilation, to death
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Did you do ANY analysis of why ?...doesn't look like it...piss weak journalism
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Hmmm. How many _should_ be below average?
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Does data have to be provided only to news outlets? Can’t it be in the public domain for everyone?
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Why is it a headline that some areas are below average. There are also some areas above average.
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone This is such an embarrassing example of taking correlation as causation. I mean, I can think of a number of reasons to explain the observed difference in covid numbers between Liverpool and Mosman be fore I pin it on boosters.
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone T-cells and B-cells
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone I know several people just in my family who are eligible for a booster but they just had covid. Had to wait for end of isolation, and then a month or so to get it done. The high + rate could account for lower booster numbers right now.
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Parts of Sydney less hit by the omicron variant are those who studied at least elementary biology and know viruses mutate virtually ad infinitum to less virulent strains from host to host
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Because not the time as yet to get the booster 🧐
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Ethnic cleansing?
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Many are wary of third shot, on struggle st Resistance is very strong, one hears this a lot, the establishment has no idea what’s going on , the message of anti vaxers is getting through , many been effected by the virus , think they are ok , got a big job to convince them
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone there must be a vaccine coming which works 100% with ONE shot.........soon?
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone But when they were pushing the vaccines you were allowed to get them even if you had covid.
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Every single person I know who got a booster got covid in a matter of weeks.
marywardy lucy_carroll Nigelgladstone Mr Hazard states The message is clear, people who have had the virus should have a booster four to six weeks after the infection clears.NSWHealth put out on 6/1/22 the below. Can't find any info on NSWHealth or ATAGI site re interval for booster post infection
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Third dose 'booster' shots have been in limited supply, difficult for the public to get local bookings, criteria for this dose was not adequate for Omicron protection when protection measures were stopped. Still cant book after 3 mths frm 2nd dose. This is the fault of NSW Govt
lucy_carroll marywardy Nigelgladstone Might be because residents recently caught it, and the NSW Health letter tells us not to get jabbed for atleast 6 weeks. Or maybe residents are waiting for the upcoming omicron specific jab
