Vaccination isn't a magic bullet. With the way this country is reacting right now to very small amounts of people getting covid, sometimes literally one cast, and vaccination being unable to prevent spread with 100% effectiveness, what, do people reckon that it will be ok to not go back in to a lockdown, that governments will let it roll when cases start to rise?

I think it's when we achieve herd immunity with the vaccine. That'll make it difficult for the virus to spread, and it could even peter out (but of course the virus does mutate). Right now the virus spreads exponentially if left unchecked. That's leads to overwhelmed health systems which the lockdowns are designed to avoid.

And there are signs vaccines slow or prevent transmission. That's big news.

To shoot people who perform 61 minutes of exercise outside of their home instead of 60 minutes, obviously. This has been rife in Perth the past few days.
Good!

Bout time someone cleaned up Western Australians from all those Western Australians.

When do they start on Kalgoorlie or Geraldton?

A commie in his social views, certainly not in his economic views.

I have simple economic views.

Kill the poor except for the ones that look after my kids, clean my house, maintain my pool and do the gardening.

I'll rephrase.

Covid vaccinations are not a magic bullet.

Sanitary measures introduced with covid should never return to pre covid routines.

And I think we should kill the billionaires except the ones who produce stuff I like.

An infected worker that visited over a dozen spots in less than a week across around 10 suburbs. What a surprise. Just awaiting news he belongs to a family of 70. How hard is it to have as part of training for any in medi-hotels that due to the risk of infection, they try to minimise where they go outside of work hours, until we have most of the country vaccinated? :drunk:

Right. Understood.

So when will governments just let it roll? Right now one case still warrants a lockdown. What will the number be in the near future?

I'm hoping no more lockdowns once the vaccine rollout is done, assuming enough of the population is vaccinated. The health system should be able to manage small numbers of +ve cases because the virus either won't be able to spread or can be controlled easily enough. Everyone will still need to follow good hygiene practices but that will have broader benefits.

And if things like ubiquitous cough-screens at service desks, hand sanitiser everywhere and distanced queueing are here to stay, that ain't a bad thing at all.

I'll tell you about the WA police state I'm living in - I was only allowed to buy two of bread, rolls and crumpets today. I thought it would have been a limit of two of any of those, but no dice. Luckily I have enough toastable (ie not mouldy yet) bread to last until tomorrow.

How you doing for toilet paper? Want me to fax you some?

And workplaces still being vigilant and understanding toward people not working with symptoms, and appropriate protection and safety nets from government.

I mean fingers crossed we've been through the worst of it, and too many times those things still weren't present when needed most.

Yes, I think that's right. I was quite impressed the last time I was in SA. I had to "check-in" each time I entered a cafe/supermarket/clothing store etc etc

You poor ignorant fool. Now Nicola Spurrier can control your brain with microwaves.
 
The people that claim Melbourne coffee is the best are the same that spend their weekends in piss filled alley bars paying $80 for something called a fu**bomb which they then Instagram to their 14 followers thinking they're an influencer then ask for discounts at the gelato store because of it.

You forgot the lining up part. It would have been the perfect Melbourne post if you'd mentioned lining up.
