Mantis , let me explain my objection to being in the same place at the same time as an unvaccinated person.
My belief is that anyone still unvaccinated, for whatever reason, is very unlikely to get the jab any time soon. Experience here and overseas has shown that when unvaccinated people catch Covid they either deny its existence or wait until they are quite ill before seeking medical assistance. In the time they are infectious they present a clear danger to people in my age group.
My wife and I are in the senior citizen category and were double vaxxed in July. In addition, my wife is a chronic asthmatic. Our GP will give us a booster shot next January, but in the meantime our immunity to Covid is going down at a faster rate than for people in younger age groups.
If restrictions are removed and unvaccinated people are allowed to wander around in the community at will, then the elderly will be forced to self isolate in many instances to protect themselves.
As far as I am concerned I hope that Andrews keeps the restrictions on for as long as possible. People who bludge on the vaccinated to keep Covid at bay should not be rewarded for their actions.
