The Australian media is frantically pushing the line that social freedoms can only be given back if there is a greater than 70 percent vaccination rate. Ideally, everyone gets the might Vaxes, and happy, happy. But will it be? Take Israel, with the sort of dream percentage of people vaccinated that the Australian technocrat class must nightly dream about. What is being seen now are infections among the unvaccinated, to be sure, but even more infections among the vaccinated, at numbers that would shut down Australian states and cause premiers to get a wee bit hysterical.
As well, while there is an almost fanatical religious faith that the Pfizer vaccine is a magic bullet here in Australia, preliminary vaccine data published in Israel in July 2020, reported that the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine was just 40.5 percent effective on average at preventing symptomatic disease. Some religion!
