Rang the Doc at 9.00am,
Drive straight to Docs at 9:45am
Pfizer Jabbed and sitting outside by the 10:02am for my 15min wait.

Second jab on 9th August.

Not a single side effect noted.

Its the 2nd Pfizer jab that can whack you big time. Opposite to AZ which is the first jab that generally affects you.

I get my 2nd Pfizer jab next Thursday.

Mario and I are booked in for our second jab of Astra in 3 weeks. We where fine with our first jab only a bit sore where they injected. We have a few of our friends that have had there first and second jab and they are all fine from it. Our son in Japan is booked to get the moderna on the 1st Aug and the second the 28th Aug. The moderna you have the second jab about 28 days after the first. So he is looking forward in getting it as the number in Japan are going up, and he teaches at several schools. And most classes have about 30+ kids in it. He hasn't stopped wearing a mask 24/7 since Feb last year, and will still keep wearing it. Pity I can not say that about the Japanese people, Brendon said they do what they like, they don't listen to the Government. He can walk in to a class room and more than 1/2 are not wearing masks, which he walks out until they put there mask on. Goes in to the teachers room and they don't wear masks, until Brendon walk in they put there masks on. Vaccine and masks are the only thing that will help us to get back to some like of life.

That is surprising and also that they let him teach at more than one school with the risk of spreading the virus.

He is under contract by the JET program and you teach from primary to high school English. And with this virus a lot of JET ALT people didn't recontact or broke their contact to go home (US,UK,Canada Sth Africa Etc). So that gave the ones left more schools. Brendon left here July2019 and just recontracting until 2022 August. So with luck he might not have to go in to hotel quarantine.

If you're interested in checking the actual wording for yourself, here is the Qld Border Direction 29, only issued at 4.45pm yesterday.
Basically, even if you're in a border area, you can only cross for very limited emergency or medical reasons or if exempt such as a freight driver, and may have to quarantine anyway, including Qld residents.
This is in place for at least a month.
Checking QldTraffic and RACQ shows multiple closure points.
So, thanks to the mess in Sydney, we're closed until further notice.
Glad we came back before 1am Friday or we'd now be in HQ.
Now cut off from both our families in NSW, who are furious about being put in danger by the Sydney outbreak.
The eldest son and family, who were already on holiday in northern NSW when Sydney went to ruin, have indefinitely postponed their return to Sydney. The kids school is online and he can work online, so why go back and risk getting sick?
Lotta very unhappy people around. I feel sorry for them. It's not going to improve soon, unfortunately.
