They said within 12 weeks! but they said they will call me next month to notify when to turn up. They are registering all ID's which will be required for an immunity passport later on. Already travels to a couple of countries mean you need one.
It's more akin to a flu shot. You're going to need boosters, especially as the virus mutates.
It's not for me as i will never get it, never had the flu shot either. Just doing some research for those family members who are considering getting it so they know before they roll up the sleeve if it's a one time only or every 6 months/yearly. Good thing is it's going to be a fair while before they even get the chance to step up to the plate so lots of time to get answers and by then they might just think what is the point if Covid is dead in the water.
It will be mandatory before too long.
No it won't.
It will in the sense you won't be allowed to do much without the government jab
Nope.
Hope your right. I'm not as optimistic
Turn the radio off dude, they probably knocked back all the other lawyers who said it won't happen and then one says yes and he gets the nod to run his mouth.
It was some lady lawyer. The usual geezer David Whiting was unavailable
Given the speed of the roll out, if there is any risk , wait until you are NOT pregnant.
I got the usual vaccinations when I was a kid and got some more when I went travelling through Asia.
I did some analysis on the US data and posted ITT that the short term adverse effects did not seem greater than for other vaccines. The longer term effects on the immune system are as yet unknown, particularly for mRNA vaccines.
So basically your life is in hostage, until you get the the jab that the govt threatens you with, even though they claim " Its tote safe guyz, honest!", even though there have been claims overseas that it isn't. Then you have people, not a whole lot, but there are cases, dying from said jab and apparently "it's normal" or "its part of the process". Understandably people will hold off on the Vaccine because they are sceptical of its efficacy or they'll take a chance on the COVID virus.
Dying AFTER jab, not dying OF jab. Deaths again in the uppermost age bracket.
If the vaccine is as effective at preventing serious illness as the early reports seems then I think that once everyone that wants to get vaccinated is vaccinated then I think things will open up. I doubt we get herd immunity for those that are unable to get it but as the cv virus is novel it will go through the unvaccinated pretty quick and they will develop immunity that way. I think you'll have the choice. Some of the totalitarian doom and gloom is a bit overblown - I suspect air travel might be the only area where a strict vaccinated only policy might be the norm for a while.
Jobs.
Aged care jobs and perhaps child care positions as well.
I'm never right and I take great comfort in that.
Yeah well health and aged care jobs seem an obvious one. I guess I mean once we get a more open environment cv-19 will be allowed in to the population group (there's no barrier via lockdown etc) and once its 'gone through' the population the ongoing need for these measure will be limited. Some of the science types might correct me but isn't it highly contagious effect just due to it's novel status ie 'new' so there's natural defence - so for better or worse we'll get to a point full exposure - either through the vaccine or cv19 itself pretty quick after which who cares whether you've had the jab or not.
Find it very hard to believe flying without one will be possible
