Re: NZ, Australia - into winter with Covid-19
Fully vaxxed as in 2 shots, or 3?
Will it be 4 in a year from now?
I was fully on board with the vaccines when it was 2 shots, as advertised, but now that it’s looking like this could be a bi-annual thing, I’m sliding over to the other side.
Got the vax. Still got covid. Survived. Don’t need any more.
Don’t need to be treated like a leper either. Nobody got mad at me before when I never got an annual flu shot. Doctor said only the vulnerable needed it, and we all knew it wouldn’t eradicate the flu even if everyone did get it.
Re: NZ, Australia - into winter with Covid-19
Yeah. That’s what my post was about but only obvious to those who have heard the message. They are removing fully vaxxed from the language. Now they will refer to being ‘up to date’ with vaccinationsRyan754326 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 6:15 amFully vaxxed as in 2 shots, or 3?

I’m other words, if we want to be able to function in society, we all have to sign up for a lifetime subscription with the pharma companies.
Do you honestly think that ongoing vaccines are necessary for the majority of people who aren’t all that vulnerable, especially if they’ve already beaten the disease itself?
If we all took a Tylenol every six hours for the rest of our lives, none of us would ever get a headache again either, but more importantly, a few people would make a ton of money.

By you do you mean me? Nothing about my post expressed my beliefs. I don’t intend to get into my beliefs on the matter again. Totally over it.Ryan754326 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 7:29 amI’m other words, if we want to be able to function in society, we all have to sign up for a lifetime subscription with the pharma companies.

And it was all a very big storm in a very small teacup. ….
As of 6 July foreign citizens arriving in Australia no longer need to declare their covid-19 vaccination status.

‘This is a race’: Qld goes it alone to open 500-bed quarantine hub this year
The Queensland government will move ahead with a regional Howard Spring-style quarantine hub near Toowoomba, west of Brisbane, after negotiations with the federal government stalled.
The Wellcamp announcement comes one day after the Premier paused arrivals from interstate hotspots NSW, Victoria and the ACT for two weeks as hotel quarantine became “stretched to the limit”.
Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the facility would have 500 beds open by the end of the year and 1000 beds by the end of the first quarter of 2022.
“We all know that our hotels were not built to deal with the Delta strain of this virus,” she said.
“What’s happening in New South Wales and Victoria is a direct result of the Delta strain coming in and essentially breaching hotel quarantine.
“We’ve got to get on with this.
“This is a race.”

What could go wrong? Well, for a starter, by the time this is initially up and running ie end of the year, 70/80% of the OZ population will have been vaccinated by which time restrictions can be eased, compulsory quarantine centres will not be required and home quarantine for inbound travellers will suffice. Or is this a rogue premier still hanging on to the 'zero covid' policy against the opening up plan put forward by the federal gov't?
$600m later, the sorry story of Qld’s quarantine hubs turns a page
Queensland is now left with two quarantine centres, costing a combined $600 million-plus, looking for purposes.

Feb 11, 2022 · The company behind Australia’s detention centre on Nauru, made $101m profit last financial year. ... more than $500,000 for each of the fewer than 200 people held and the Christmas Island Immigration Detention Centre
Yea, I know it's not the same as a Quarantine center but the money wasted by the government is still Australian taxpayers money wasted.
