Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
You delete Instagram, Twitter off your phone. You lock FB down to your friends/family. No whatsapp. You ring people and see them F2F. You don't visit Demonland, Big Footy, skip articles about your form online. Unecessary noise.

The line at 1.90 22.5 is very tasty on this one

The problem with this is that there is limited transmission at present, which doesn't provide a compelling reason for people to hasten their vaccination timeline. The prof on RN Breakfast y'day morning also spoke to the different profiles of people. She mentioned that hesitancy was really broken into "wait and see", "undecided", which makes sense given the low level of circulating virus. Another way to look at this is: so long as we have low numbers, then international travel and unrestricted (read: low risk, low friction) domestic travel is out the window. For some that's unimportant, so there's no need to hurry. If you're a university chancellor or any number of industry/vested interests (excluding tourism) who relies on a steady supply of international students, temporary migrant workers (capital C Capital to contain wages), etc, then follow the money. There is a clear interest in vaccinating the populace to reopen the borders.

Enjoy it - better on them than showering us in bath water and it’ll make it all the more enjoyable if they fall in a heap Then we can hear all these moronic stories about how David King and Journo X was “burnt” by the bombers - whatever that means

That’s sad to hear - the club can’t play a player in this mental space I don’t think. Not good for him or the team - back to the 2s for a reboot and get back the mojo Hope he is off Twitter Insta etc

On this statement: "There is 0 evidence of outdoor transmission", citation required - is this the case. Parking that, though, as others have said, it's not just about proximity in seats - it is incidental contact - toilets, bars, entry/exit, etc.

Citation required for this statement but isn't the risk lowered?

Hopefully Metricon at a sensible family friendly hour so I can take my 6yo eldest (massive Petracca and Lever fan) to his first Dees game up the road. Otherwise it’s me and Brownieeeeee (you’re the designated drive brownie?)

No need for apology. You are of course right. Let's not forget why there's a rush to get vaccinated - lot of vested interests want the borders open (perhaps not the RBA, as they wish to see wages growth which now looks to be occuring. Shock horror! Training locals!).

Well, not quite. AZ continues to be administered at scale. If you mean into the future, perhaps. There is Novavax and now the BCG TB vaccination depending on the trials currently underway. BCG a live TB virus, Novavax (protein) so there will be options. AU has 50 million Novavax on the way (presumably once approved).

Residential Aged Care Facilities: Pfizer is still (or should still be) the vaccine being administered to RACF residents (and I think workers). Link.

Most RACF will be on Pfizer.

Yes there is one, I think fed from hospital and other data plus consumer surveillance conducted via SMS follow up post innoculation. TGA: link, about the system To your second point, it might be because these aren't effective? AZ is apparently making very little of this vaccine c.f. Pfizer and Moderna, but someone can double check that.

Gary Pert Mid-Season Update
I wonder how much success will drive uplift in memberships (including GFGs) and therefore improve the bottom line next year. Keep winning games and the rest will take care of itself: sponsorship, Friday Night Lights blockbuster Boy Gee Wow games and more home games at the G against the big dogs - RFC, CFC, Cats, Bombers.

Novavax The BCG TB vaccination shows promise and it's a 100 year old vaccination: Link I think I read an Australian research group had tested it in rodents and were after funding for human trials. EDIT: The Brace trial already underway - link. Fancy that, a 100 year TB vaccine....cheap to make anywhere and no super cold chain needed. There are reports now that the mRNA vaccines are causing heart inflammation in younger males. Link. [source CDC via VAERS surveillance] Are you sure people who've already been vaccinated with what are effective vaccines are going to go get another, given the apparent issues (albeit at very low rates).
