    I'm taking early retirement at the end of September

    Congrats ! I retired from full time work a little over 4 years ago and enjoy working part time.

    I work for a school district and enjoy having weekends off

    well our government are now saying that they intend to open up fully on the 19th even though they expect daily cases to be 100,000 a day by that point from the Delta Variant.

    Thats a pretty crazy stat and the only reason they are able to do this is that vaccinations will be at 75% by that stage and everyone over the age of 18 will have had 1 jab. So they are hoping hospitisations and deaths will not track that increase.

    however considering our cases were under 2500 a couple of weeks back you can see how this variant is spreading despite a high level of vaccination.

    I can only assume that the Australian government is still being cautious as if this gets a grip it can escalate so quickly. 

    That's a big leap from 2500 cases a day to 100,000

    I think the genie is out of the bottle and this virus will not be defeated. I think we will have to learn to live with it just like we live with influenza. I bet we have to get annual booster shots to keep up with all the variants year in year out. Hopefully at some point it becomes old news and we can have the elites controlling the masses by making us fearful of something else again, like the sun for instance.

    With this being a pandemic you're probably right about it not being defeated.Especially when only 10% of the world is vaccinated.The main point is to minimize it.

    The main difference between covid 19 and the flu is that I've known many people to get the flu but no one died from it.As for covid 19,I've known people,neighbors,etc... who died from it,

    Right now we have in the USA we have a president who,if you believe the former president,is going to hurt God.So God answers to Joe Biden so all of us Americans have nothing to fear !

    but until you all get vaccinated this - restrictions, lockdowns, face masks - will never go away.

    if collectively Australians all hate the restrictions. you must collectively all get vaccinated. 

    Then the government will have to bow to pressure and ease everything. 

    Yes everyone should get vaccinated.

    That's the best way to defeat this virus.
