I guess they are, but oddly enough they don't seem to be the "popular" ones the media use that **** me off en-masse.

I was given to understand( by the Media (?) )that AZ was the poor cousin & had no long term protection. More ballcocks it may seem.

Yes, the whole "I want Pfizer, AZ is second-rate" attitude was never correct.

Look at the delays that caused around the country. That was the Media again.

We are down at Arrawarra at the moment.
Seems after 1/1/22,we just have to tick the box on the border pass to say we have done the Rapid Antigen Test,be double vaxed and all good,to get back into Qld.
Oh and the test has to be negative I presume

I wonder how many are actually going to do the test?
They are difficult to get and expensive.
Luckily we have 4 we picked up before heading down.It took a lot of ringing around before we found a place that had them,then there was a limit of two per person.

Yeah the whole area has sold out, its a **** fight to get a RAT, everyones in uproar about getting tested, more so those with symptoms, because the 'i wanna go to qld holiday makers' are clogging the system.

Seems a bit of gouging going on for those. Originally on the shelves for $45 Today $90

Govt is going to involve the ACCC (they think ???) but that could take forever so don't lose the buggers.


EDIT.
Gargle thinks it nice down/up there as images support.

Worked for me. Cost me all of about 20 days of delay waiting for the fizzer. I wonder what my booster will be? It's due tomorrow, but that's not going to happen.

Yes we rang down your way before we came down,no,none anywhere.

Very luckily we picked them up at Mt Warren Coles on the way down,after ringing a heap of places,couldn’t risk going out of Qld without them.

The whole system is a shambles,well,most things the govt gets involved with are anyway….

And yes they said the price of them is going to rise as there is a special emergency shipment of them coming in from somewhere,I can’t remember where.
And they are going to pay after hours rates to have them packaged and sent out to many places all around the country.

But I recon if people can’t get them,they are just going to tick the box and get into Qld,easy as.
