It sometimes helps you understand things better, can strengthen your stance or just make you shake your head! Im more in the shake my head camp with the good Dr Fielding but I take your point.
I think I remember seeing her on Q&A on the ABC which of course has reps from both major parties usually as well neutrals and the odd Greta Thunberg for a bit of spice and the good Dr was flushed out for her pro labor views. Which is fine but she should disclose she is a long term paid up member when she comments on political issues...

It's a weird description but I get it, Gladys has basically parachuting NSW off the cliff, and either way the outcome is the same you'll end up at the bottom of a one way journey with no return!
There will be a bit of nervousness now that politicians are turning up positive, they are serial hand shakers, highly mobile and out doing the meet and greet despite sensible restrictions. I wonder how many Bushies and CWA members the agriculture minister had a cuppa with over the last couple of weeks. They've all come together in one location, then spread like the wind Bullseye, trailed by a team of PAs and advisors!

Best wishes to the MIL MBB.
It looks like the doc was onto it pretty quickly.
One of the issues for some may be deciding when to go and get things checked.
When does a minor side effect turn into a major one?

Had my 2nd AZ today - fingers crossed - OK so far.
Hope all goes well MBB.
Reality always wins in the end.

Good on ya, Cookie. You go from around 33% to about 90% protection and overseas experience suggests it is effective against the Delta variant. And breakthrough infections are much less serious.
Gladys reflects on her unwillingness to go hard on suppressing the Delta superspreader event:

I presume they'll end up blaming Dan!

I can’t believe there hasn’t been outrage over the revelation the limo driver was unvaccinated (and was apparently not a great fan of PPE). The explanation for allowing this was that excluding unvaccinated drivers would leave fewer drivers available than they wanted. Bugger me ... isn’t that just a structural limitation that should have limited the number of flights coming in? If I go to the Emergency Department for treatment, I don’t want to hear that receptionists and cleaning crew are seeing patients in order to cope with the flow of cases.
Surely if they’d offered to double or triple payments to drivers but only vaccinated drivers could move flight crews, the unvaccinated drivers would have fallen over themselves in the rush to be vaccinated. And what about the other cliché solution to all things Covid-related: the ADF? There are plenty of drivers in their transport sections and they’re presumably all vaccinated. And if getting police to sit on a chair to keep an eye on a floor in a quarantine hotel is a good use of their time, then surely police driving limos is worthwhile too ...

They are not forcing anybody to be vaccinated, there are staff, nurses and doctors in hospital emergencies departments that have chosen not to be vaccinated.
You do not even have to be vaccinated to work at a COVID testing centre.
