Who here will be getting the vaccine? I will hopefully.

Do we really have a choice? At some stage, I will want to go overseas again.

I'm not really worried about getting the vaccine. I believe when I get one it'll be the Astrazeneca vaccine, which is a more traditional proven vaccine method than some of the others. I am in a low-risk group and so will be towards the back of the line, so by then any concerns over the vaccines would be lessened.

Apparently vaccines won't be mandatory for Victorian frontline workers?

They shouldn't be vaccinating all of them anyway. A sensible COVID policy would be to have targets of 50-60%or whatever the number would be. Just because these are new vaccines.

There's nothing to suggest there'll be a problem, but you still need a risk management strategy. In the extremely rare chance there is some long term negative outcome from the vaccine. You can't risk having your entire health care industry impacted at once.

Then as time goes on, we become more confident in a vaccine, maybe have better vaccines, we can get the rest vaccinated. Or have a slow roll out for the rest. Still in the relative short term.

"You just can't slam the border shut because someone's sneezed. And I mean that respectfully,"

Huh, seems like Tina may not be a fan of certain premiers.
