I think we will have to get used to lockdowns and masks etc for a while, Israel are busy whacking 3rd doses of Pfizer into citizens and still have very high infection rates. There is no way known we will tolerate the same level of infections as Israel without lockdowns being used. Waning immunity is the major problem, the Israeli data is the best around as suggested and we all know that what happens overseas will be happening here eventually. The Government are going to have sell the idea of boosters sooner than later for those folk who got vaccinated early because Joe Average in Aus thinks when we have 70-80% vaccination rates here we can all stick on our party hats and call it job done...
