COVID-19 / Australia / 6th October Update

Cases in New South Wales are falling due to the very tight ‘stay at home’ regulations.
The same can’t be said for Victoria unfortunately but there have been quite a number of super spreader events in that state over the last week or so eg. protests and alleged numerous football parties related to the grand final of the AFL competition, albeit held 3000km away in Perth.
Other states, apart from the ACT, have been virtually cases free.
Vaccination rates are now reaching a point where certain states will begin a stepped opening up.
NSW reached its initial goal of 70 % fully vaccinated today and restrictions will ease next Monday.
At 80% another relaxation of restrictions will occur.
It is estimated that the state will be fully open by the 1st December.
A full rundown of ‘exit plan’ can be accessed here.
Other states and territories have their own plans, some more conservative than others.
