    All the usual ones, Pfizer, Astra and Moderna. Boosters are being rolled out but at the moment only for people over 5 months since their 2nd jab. It's only about 2 months since I was fully vaxxed so a while longer for me, I was planning on coming home to Wales for Christmas but this spike is very concerning.
    I wouldn’t you’ll never get back into Oz……

      Steal a sheep or something, do they still send people there for things like that?

        Things may change but I'm eligible to return as a PR, there is also only a 72 hour isolation on arrival and a day 1 and 5 test. Sydney have even removed entry restrictions on the original African countries with Omicron. The hard border has gone, it is literally harder to get to Perth than to Wales and back

          I know of an Australian chap who is resident in the UK who has just served 14 days quarantine in an hotel room in Perth.

Alot of people seem to be basing their argument on the fact that it doesn't seem to be as bad or is much weaker and not likely to kill many but when you realise the average age of the South African population is under 20yrs old and the UK is over 40 you begin to see the politicians dilemma insomuch as their data is useless as a guide to how this variant can affect an older population.And the controversial bit is I don't think they are as concerned about the number of deaths this variant could cause but the size of the bed blockage nationally if this variant is strong enough to put people in hospital but not being able to cure them fast enough to discharge them.Because of this I feel this variant will put the biggest strain yet on the NHS even though they are arguably better prepared this time around.
            So, admit it, you literally are doing the equivalent of getting your information off the back of a fag packet. I hope you feel proud of yourself.

              Drakeford is buggered without the Furlough support ,so lockdown won't get easy .

              32 cases shouldn't be creating hysteria, I think all these leaks are about forcing folk to get the booster, once again pollard the issue

                  I'm not totally sure what you mean by "leaks"? If you mean suggesting people get vaccinated in a pandemic wave by accentuating the current danger with snippets of information, how dare they! I mean that would be totally sensical.

                    It's amusing , in an ironic sort of way , that all these people have either not been getting jabbed on the grounds of feck it , its all a hoax or I have had two jabs , I will be OK or booking a jab and not even showing up ......what utter wankers ........the new variant emerges and the lines of people outside the jab centres is fecking huge ! 😆

                      Something to do with that daft woman in Hi De Hi? I can remember a couple of cricketers with that surname if that helps.

                        The Somerset Levels are known for the practice of pollarding willow trees i.e. pruning them in such a way to promote growth of dense branches.

                          The first known use of pollard was in 1611. Good to see its revival in everyday parlance.

                              Here in Melbourne we have a double vaccination rate of 92.2% (over 12 year olds) and have used a covid pass for restaurants etc successfully for months but omicron is only a handful of international arrivals so far, Sydney however have some in the community, they were averaging 300-400 cases a day 2-3 weeks ago, today 1750! Cases numbers are going to explode across the world if it’s doing that here in a recently highly vaccinated population.

                              Surely any large indoor events, clubs, bars etc are in the firing line for closures
                              I’m really against the covid passes - and if someone really wants to try and manipulate that pass they can quite easily

                                I’ve got a paper pass - I could have shown the steward a shopping list at the Sheffield United match for all of the attention he paid to it.
