It is obvious that our state, New South Wales, is progressing to opening up faster, due to our vaccination rates, than other states so will concentrate on that situation more in the future.
In NSW 93.7% of people eligible have now had at least one dose of the vaccine, while 88.3% are fully vaccinated.

Today the New South Wales government has brought forward, to the 8th November, a raft of freedoms for fully vaccinated residents, while delaying when unvaccinated people can exit stay-at-home orders.
Under the original roadmap, restrictions were supposed to ease from 1st December.
The NSW premier said today’s changes were due to the state’s high vaccination rate, with authorities pushing NSW to hit 95% double dose coverage.
The changes also delay the mooted 1st December restrictions ease for unvaccinated people to either when the state hits the 95% fully vaccinated rate or by 15th December, whichever occurs first.
Obviously this will cause some disquiet among the anti vax crowd but who cares. Their selfishness shouldn’t be rewarded.
The mask mandate will also remain until the state hits 95% fully vaccinated or 15th December.

In other news the NSW international border is open to fully vaxed people who can now arrive without quarantine and depart without ‘permission’.
There have been some pretty emotional scenes at Sydney airport as families reunite, some after nearly two years separation.
Our 2022 USA trip plans are back on the table.
Also everyone is now eligible for a Pfizer booster shot 6 months after their last inoculation no matter the initial vaccine taken.

So it’s certainly all happening!
