It's good to hear that members of CT are receiving their vaccinations, good luck to all those yet to have theirs. It seems like a long haul till we get everyone sorted and hear the results of the present vaccines. 

I'm leaving this open for non political comments as per the guidelines. Hope you can add your own experiences and thoughts.

My first jab comes up tomorrow, I'm so glad we have research institutions that have got us this far! And I am planning breaks away in the hope of improvements on the horizon.

I thought it ironic that one news report I heard stated he was not allowed in his Australian layers offices as they had a no vax no admittance policy.undecided

I am glad to note that the Australian immigration rules are not at this time , going to be "relaxed?" because of whoever he is, and the it seems by reports and evidence "fake covid"infection

It’s not over yet-he may yet have his rejection reimposed due to his no vax status. I think they will do more harm by giving in to him than letting him stay. If I was an Aussie I’d be out there countering these we love Serbia types-the types that left the Serbia they love so much to live in Australia🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

It's certainly not consistent what he and his lawyers have been saying. Whichever way you look at it, they should stick to the rules and make an example me of the situation. Might just focus some of the anti vaxxers minds if someone as prominent as him is refused entry to a country.

On the up side by BIL had his 4th jab on Monday smile

On the down side our DIL and  grandchildren have still not been vaxed, our son has had all of his. Can't get through to her she should, even when I pointed out she can't go on holiday it made no difference. The eldest granddaughters ears pricked up though laughing

That’s interesting TammyG. Which reasons is she giving? What does your son say about his children not being vaccinated? Difficult for you as you no doubt want to see them.

IMO the Australians handled this badly by letting him in and then dragging their feet for so long. He made his choice and should expect the consequences, as should others, why should the rich and famous expect different treatment from the rest of us. I think many Australians will be glad of see him get on a plane.

We have a neice who is getting married this year, had what will be quite a big wedding booked from pre covid. Both Bride and Groom haven’t had a single jab yet, despite carefully worded suggestions from family. I do wonder what they will do if the hotel phones and wants to check their vaccination status. Apparently neither are anti vaxxer, so it does rather beg the question why are you @rsing about then. They have a small child as well. Her parents are so worried about them, both work in environments where they are in constant contact with others, of all ages.🤷‍♀️

I'm not surprised.  We are still getting a regular, but thankfully reducing, stream of people of all ages presenting for their first jab.  I've heard every reason imaginable for the delays and some beyond my imagination, but that's life.
