I'll stick this here for want of a better place. Pretty big announcement today by Aus PM, Morrison. After a pretty bad week for him, with various Covid outbreaks over the country - he's come out of his own 2 weeks MIQ (was at G7 as a guest), with what on the face of it seems finally a pretty well thought out co-ordinated national Covid strategy. Overdue.

Phase 1 - vaccination (aiming for 1M jabs a week), trying to prevent outbreaks, lockdowns if required, a 50% reduction of incoming commercial international flights/less people into MIQ where problems are now. Basically continuation of current situation, with less incoming flights to take pressure off failing MIQ.
Phase 2 - targeting sometime Oct-Dec this year, depending on the modelling of having some form of 'herd immunity'. Learning to live with the virus like the flu. Having all vulnerable people vaccinated (unless they choose not to). Focussing on hospital/death rates rather than Case numbers. End to lockdowns, unless is a big risk of a rise in hospitalisations rather than just new cases. More flights to Australia.
Phase 3 - opening up more overseas travel bubbles to vaccinated travellers, and other loosening of restrictions. Rolling out a booster vaccination program when science says it's required.
Phase 4 - life pretty much pre Covid, esp for vaccinated people. More restricted if you are unvaccinated.

Biggest change is this vocab about learning to learn with the virus (day like Europe/USA), like the flu - rather than an elimination strategy. Something a lot people will agree with (me included). Welcome news to likes of tourism idustry etc, with some real evidenced plan ahead, if not definite time frames.

Be interesting to see how Jacinda and NZ respond.

From Nix point of view, higher chance (esp if NZ Govt start to adopt a similar policy/view) of a proper home & away season in 2021/22.
