I don't think we should be given a choice on vaccines that aren't able to be got into arms yet
Seems so many are holding off for phizer when a perfectly good vaccine is available in quantity now.

Did anyone get a choice of vaccine with measles, chicken pox, mumps, polio, flu etc etc?
No one seemed to be concerned then, why now?

Regarding Kiwis and Covid - I'm confident the take away from future analysis (whether it be the degree of suppressing Delta, vaccination uptake rates or whatever) will be...

I dunno what they put in the water in that long white cloud but golly it is effective. If you want something difficult done, you best ask a Kiwi!

Yep and when self medication doesn't work out, the muppets clog up the over-stretched services operated by professional guys.

A Sydney Covid patient landed themselves in hospital after overdosing on a supposed cure for the virus they discovered online.
A Western Sydney Health toxicologist has issued a community warning for people not to “rely on online sham cures for Covid-19” after the patient got a stark dose of reality.

The positive case presented to Westmead Hospital’s emergency department with vomiting and diarrhoea recently from an overdose of the drug ivermectin and other supposed Covid cures they ordered online.

If you want all the statistics on vacination in Australia you need to start watching that Paul Murray bloke on Fox news.

Having been a member of the national cabinet which agreed on the 70% and 80% lock down free ups the state of Queensland has decided to retain the option of border closures until all the children under 12 years old are fully vacinated.

Nope, seriously.

You may not like the platform because Rupert might be involved and you might not want to watch the rest of his show, he's a bit right wing, but he does supply all the statistics, and often with graphics of where they are occurring, and not just the case numbers.

And he has a show on channel 56 of free to air TV so you are already paying for it in the price of your washing powder and consequently may as well take a look at it.

And anyone who believes that the Media Watch program on ABC TV presents any item which it would be the grossest exaggeration to in any way describe, or even vaguely infer, as objective is definitely in the market for a harbour bridge.

On the upside, horse worming tablets are a big step forward from injecting bleach.

At only 25% fully vaccinated and less than half the population with one dose NZ has a long way to go to overcome their previous complacency with their slow start. And their lack of penetration into the Maori and Pacifica communities.

They’ve also closed all entry into the country by not releasing anymore quarantine spaces for the next few weeks. I think that’s an admission that even after 18 months they still don’t have very good processes in place to manage infected people in quarantine.

Muppets who have been fortunate that they are governing (ineptly) an island in the middle of a big empty sea.

You need to work on your numeracy mate. The channel numbers responsible for that all start with 2.

If one wants an example of fear mongering one needs go no further than Anistasia where she states that all our children are going to die if she opens the borders before every child younger than 12 is immunized.

Any chance of a link to that info?

Best I have been able to find is

and

' a possible shortage of supply next month' (Sept).

'said that the speed of vaccinations might come under pressure in the coming weeks as massive demand puts pressure on supplies.'

'During Sunday’s 1pm press briefing, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the Government had just taken a delivery of 320,000 more vaccines, but plans were being drawn up if stocks ran low.

“What our team are working on at the moment are some different scenarios, based on the strategy working about continuing to meet demand,” she said.

The Prime Minister stressed that the government were working on mitigation plans if vaccine quantities ran low


She said the concern wasn’t that New Zealand would run out of vaccines, but said it may be a case of managing demand in some areas.'

Lots of 'if but and maybe' in there.
