A fearful and obedient population is compliant and able to be manipulated. Just look at Russia, China and Nth Korea.

Cant agree with that. In those countries you would get shot potentially for saying that. Thankfully we live in Australia and will never be like those countries. Cheers

Here is a short story about how it is possible to get the virus after the first injection. Interesting, it is a reminder that COVID precautions need to be followed even after the first injection.

Why can people still catch Covid after getting vaccinated?

Despite being proven to dramatically cut the risk of Covid, none of the jabs approved in Britain are 100 per cent effective.
Rigorous scientific studies on tens of thousands of volunteers showed how vaccines almost completely removed the risk of participants falling seriously ill or dying from the coronavirus.
And the jabs were also highly effective at stopping people developing tell-tale symptoms of the disease.

But no coronavirus vaccine will ever be able to completely wipe out the risk of getting infected.
It means some vaccinated people will inevitably get infected without having any symptoms, leaving them unaware they are infected and contagious — unless they get tested.
Government analysis of the vaccines currently used in Britain suggests 30 per cent of inoculated people may still go on to catch it without getting sick.

Some inoculated adults will also fall ill if they get infected — but the risk of getting symptoms is much lower, as has been proven by trials from across the world.

And the risk of becoming seriously ill, being hospitalised or dying from the virus is even smaller.
It means deaths and hospitalisations from coronavirus will still occur in the coming months, but No10's scientific advisers hope — and believe — they will be at much lower levels than seen throughout the pandemic so far.

We are staying home, but such a relief. Had to smile at the Deputy Premiers speech, put it in perspective.

My experience with the vaccine has been my name is down at the local medical vaccination centre, has been for a week. I am 1b, over 70 with medical conditions. The centre has been getting 10 bottles of vaccine at a time, but can not make appointments because they are not informed as to times or dates of delivery, [ put your name on the list, hope for the best.]the vaccine just turns up, at random, which also makes it difficult to organise second doses , because ATM no one knows how much vaccine is coming, and when. A mate works in the PA hospital, and even they don't have a guarantee of delivery. Now we are making our own vaccine, things will improve. And, we can rely upon the magnificent health workers [ the real hero's here] to keep the lid on the genie bottle until that happens. I say be concerned, do all the right things, but don't stress out, it's not as bad as it looks. So smile, give a little whistle, just like Doris Day

May I 'umbly suggest, guvnor ( wrinkled flat cap in hand) that you ring in now & then to find out your possie on the list?


We had our name down from Day 2 & were advised the list was already a "mile long".

'Indoors had reason to contact the rooms on another matter & asked how it was going. One week later it was done.


I think they have all got themselves in a bind after the initial GOVt Speel & now things have calmed down a tad & now they can see light at the end of the tunnel. Provided it isn't the 0700 Fast Dining Service to Birmingham you could be ok.

Just contact them regularly & ask.
