2/3 I calculated we need 68%min & preferably 80% of total pop to be vaccinated. Grattan Institute recommends "fully vaccinating 80% of all Australians, & 95% of the over-70s", to "give us the best chance of gradually returning to normal life – with open borders & no lockdowns".

3/3 NZ is targeting 78% of total population and Singapore is targeting 75% of total population. National Cabinet modelling must to be published for public review & for Australians to understand why Government targets are so low compared to estimated local and overseas targets.

The states agreement was only "In Principle". Thank you for advocating to ensure more protection for more Australians.

It’s deceptive and gravely concerning that the PM ignores children when proposing a vaccination target. Protect the most vulnerable of our society PM!!!

So more than 1 in every 3 will NOT be vaccinated… how can that work?

The Doherty modelling MUST be released. This is the root of public distrust: zero transparency. Secrecy is no way to ‘bring the people’ on the journey.

Correct as usual. However, there are some Yr 12s being vaccinated so that they can trail across Sydney x2 per day, to take 'mock' exams that can be postponed or taken online. Pls ask Chant to explain. AMA and AEU up in arms, rightly so.

The threat to Australia’s children from the Delta variant is a real concern. If we look to Indonesia we can see that. Hopefully we will get vaccine approvals for younger children soon. Until then people need to understand the threat and do the right thing.
