An anti vaxxer at my work thinks that when the authorised worker restrictions are lifted he won't have to get vaccinated.

I wouldn’t be so quick to think he’s wrong yet. It won’t be the first time Dan back flips.

I tried to get additional labour for a city job we are on and was told labour hire is struggling as there is still a fair percentage that are not even single vaccinated - I was quite surprised tbh. The girl I go through for labour said you would be shocked at the numbers that are willing to stay home and not work then get the vaccine.
 
In fairness especially early days I wasn’t keen on it either and was really against my children taking it but as we all love travelling interstate and I need to go on site from time to time the decision was taken from me. Once my kids decided to get it I was always going to follow despite admitting parts of the handling of it I made me feel uneasy.

Anyhow I got it but I guess if you don’t have commitments maybe live alone and have the cash to sit idle you could stand firm for a few more months and see how things play out.

That's the thing isn't it; a choice between getting somewhere close to normal or staying as we are now.  I know where I'd rather be.

I wasn't sure whether it would be constitutional but all Victorian members of parliament have to produce evidence of vaccination before they can attend parliament now.

True. I have got to the point where I caved in - just cant live this sort of locked up existence for much longer. I miss my mates and my extended family terribly. The little things that i used to take for granted like catching up for a BBQ or a few beers I really miss the most. Just cant wait to have face to face conversation with those close to me. 
  
And it regards to parliament reckon there would have been bloodshed if they had a different set of rules then us.

As the record holder for the longest locked down city in the world, no surprise.  The worst run state in the commonwealth  >:D

I'm starting to swing to that view myself- would never have believed it before this.
Reality always wins in the end.

Ambulance service is near collapse now as well, call centre overwhelmed and waiting times at a critical level.
Army been called in to supply drivers, the call centre I believe has also had to call on trainee Paramedics to help staff as well.
I'd be worrying too about the mandate and how many experienced healthcare and other workers they may lose who do not want to get vaccinated and will be lost to the system and where the replacements are coming from.
Dan looks rattled, as Carlton fans we know well how coaches look when they are clueless what to do in the coaching box and Dan has got that look IMHO.

And two people supposedly died from heart attacks as a result of slow ambulance response?

At least that what was said today on the news.

We had to call an ambulance a few nights ago for our daughter. Without going into details we are not the type to call an ambulance unless we think we need one.

My wife waited at least 4-5 mins to get through After at least 30 mins waiting for the ambo to arrive I called back this time and waited 7.20sec this time to get thru.
The person who allocates the 000 call stayed on the phone with me the whole time constantly saying ‘we will get thru sir’ and I’m right here with you sir’ and ‘they will answer sir’ before finally getting through to them.  I asked if they could advise how long the wait would be and was told they could not confirm but are very busy.

In the end things improved at our end and the danger had passed thankfully so I ended up cancelling and had to call back a third time and again waited similar times to get through.

Very worrying to have an emergency service in a country like this that is so utterly overwhelmed.

Give the wilfully unvaccinated a box of Ivermectin rather than a trip in an ambulance. Problem solved.

Maybe if inner city ER's were not clogged with Vaccine side effect patients both real and the over anxious we might do a little better too....

But they’re mostly not taking ambulances to get there or hospital beds, unlike the unvaccinated who are questioning their life choices while attached to ventilators.

Mav I will say this once. Be very careful with those sorts of sarcastic comments when I am speaking honestly about my family.

Best you don’t go there.

Given you and your kids had the vaccine, I can’t see your problem.
