Commentary: Sydney should know by now zero
COVID-19 cases is a pipe dream
It’s four more weeks of ทดลองเล่นสล็อต lockdown for Sydneysiders, with no end yet
in sight. New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian is still to outline a roadmap
out.
Sydney feels like it is going through COVID Groundhog Day right now. And not just
because many are having to cope with being confined to home or struggling to stay
on top of homeschooling.
Australia’s public policy approach to COVID also hasn’t significantly shifted from
the settings of 2020. Despite the advent of astonishingly powerful vaccines and
lessons from across the world, Australia still seems fixated on getting cases down
to zero. Leaders are also reliant on lockdowns.
Even Berejiklian, once so resistant to lockdowns, has now fallen into line.
It is vital, of course, that Australia vigorously controls the current outbreak.
It can’t afford to let the virus run rampant. Too many remain vulnerable as most
Australians have not yet been offered the opportunity to be fully vaccinated. |
