I think the way it has panned out has saved the Governments ar$e, the hesitancy issue would have resulted in a huge amount of wasted vaccine as it would have expired, so now the rush to get vaccinated has started and the vaccine is arriving. Pure ar$e IMO. ?Everyone has lockdown fatigue. It's more community numbness than anger. No one really is paying attention to the hospitals. Which is why I recommend getting the vax now. You cannot put this back in the bottle, so vax as many as they can to try and stem the tide.
I think hospitals will overfill and we get deaths. But it times out with the summer months. So realistically it's lucky in the timing. Some of the other states that tried locking down hard are only going to prolong the inevitable into next winter.
Everyone here is vaxxing to avoid restrictions. Young people especially. The only people that care about the virus are journos. And those sht mongers have so far got everything wrong.
Which shops?Add to that business is dying hard. NSW needs to reopen. Kids need to go back to school.
I'll say this as well. After the first few weeks I thought that the lax lockdown was a mistake. Now I'm glad they went with it. Melbourne's experience shows this ain't the same virus as before and that even "ring of steel" lockdowns are harder to control.
Added to that: many states will be slow tracking and premiers will be eating their words. The hard talk of "lockdowns" is over (who knows for how long though).
Nsw has been relatively lucky so far. We had a lot go our way in one sense. Deaths so far have been low. I suspect the vaccine passports will be short lived and just used as a scare tactic. But we won't know till we start stripping away some of these police state rules.
I just hope shops can restock before Christmas. It should be absolutely crazy on reopen.
Jb hifi, harvey Norman, outdoor/camping stores, toy stores, hell even kmart is shut here.Which shops?
You mean food places etc?
Entertainment & services I could understand, but jb hifi etc? All that stuff is just being ordered online surely?Jb hifi, harvey Norman, outdoor/camping stores, toy stores, hell even kmart is shut here.
Restaurants are busy doing take out. But eating out at restaurants will explode. Singles are getting ready to date. Barbers and hairdressers have been shut for about 7 weeks and I look like a mop.
Clothes shops, gyms of any kind. Cafes, zoos, entertainment.
It's a long list. Plenty to profit from for the entrepreneurs.
Na physical stores have run out of items for local click and collection. Problem is the same item is out of stock in other stores. Certain headphones as well. I don't see them having the stock come Christmas.Entertainment & services I could understand, but jb hifi etc? All that stuff is just being ordered online surely?
Or possibly stores cutting back on expenses?I wonder how much of that is everyone knowing how slow the post is at the moment though?
I've bought a couple of things in person/off the shelf despite it costing more because I knew ordering it online would take forever.
not aware of any tool.Is there an equivalent to google translate for youtube???

The biggest issue has been supply. Plenty of supply coming online now. The whole vax thing doesn't bother me. Had all of my shots growing up, whats the difference now (without getting into politics and whatnot) ?
Bas, while certainly some are in fact part of that antivax movement, In fact the majority of people not wishing or hesitant to get the CV vax are not anti vaxxers at all.For the last 25 years there has been an ongoing anti-vax movement. Remember when people were saying that vaccines were making children autistic ? That research turned out to be faked with the researcher having been paid 435,000 pounds to come up with the story.
Nonetheless the core of people who insisted vaccines were still dangerous has continued to grow,
Do Vaccines Cause Autism?
There’s a lot of talk in the media about vaccines and autism. Are they linked? WebMD sorts fact from fiction.www.webmd.com Why Have Vaccines Been Ruled Out as a Cause of Autism?
A fraudulent study from 1998 opened the doors to unfounded fear of autism.www.historyofvaccines.org

Like myself they have had an array of vaccinations previously... Mumps measles chickenpox polio tetanus etcetera... And very happy to have had all of those.
Therefore to call these people anti vaxxers is both childish and incorrect and actually quite a disgusting smear.... not untypical of today's toxic politics, particularly of the left.
