Yep, heard that rumour too. I couldn't give a feck about empathising with those who break a law that's trying to keep people healthy. Just follow the damn law. By the way, I just love that we need to empathise with scofflaws when there's zero empathy shown by some towards those who take a knee or refuse to stand during the national anthem (which is no crime at all) as a protest against racism.
The only way to avoid lockdowns in the near future is to try to stamp out Covid. Suppression rather than elimination is a fine theory but as NSW has shown it's not possible to keep new case numbers stable once you have it in the community. You need to resort to harsher lockdowns/restrictions to avoid it growing exponentially. And if people want to blow off restrictions because they're too important to be part of community action for the common good, then the restrictions will only grow more invasive.

If you were a cynic, you'd wonder whether NSW is deliberately exporting Covid to avoid being isolated.

This is why people like you are dangerous.
You are the type that would go around dobbing people in, in nazi germany "because they aint following the rules" only to find out, that the people harbouring Jews knew they were going to get killed, so risked their own lives to save them.
Lockdowns are here to stay, as per Mark McGowans statements regarding 0 tolerance to covid approach with or without 80% vaccination.

No, you're exactly the type to have dobbed in the Jews. My oh my, you would have hated how they separated themselves from the rest of the community, just like indigenous Australians. They shouldn't get any protection until someone tracks down those 2 people who insulted you about your Greek heritage.

The NSW premier just said even if they had 80% vaccination we would still have restrictions with 400 cases a day.
We are going to be locked up for a long time.

No, it's because of 600 cases a day or worse. That's how exponential growth works.
