Cannot trade in CEY for Darling

Lions midfielder moved to inactive list after refusing COVID vaccine
Cam Ellis-Yolmen is now ineligible to train or play with the club after failing to meet the AFL's COVID-19 requirements

What do people actually think happens from here?
It's a month till we get any sort answer right? Which means 6-8weeks minimum before a possible opening, that puts us around early April. Opening early April seems not the smartest move given Winter is right around the corner. But waiting too much longer and even the booster shots start to wane.
Next year?

Does Winter and Summer really make a lot of difference on Covid in Perth? The temperature differential is not much compared to UK, US and Canada.
Better hope that second rounder isn’t anti-vaxCannot trade in CEY for Darling

It definitely does on the normal flu, which will still fill up the hospitals.
Which thread can I bash mask mcgowan in?
What a tosser
No doubt we have another strain and need our 2nd booster before we open.
Can someone explain to him that this isn't going away and we look like ****ing cavemen?

I really dont know the answer.
Lower temperature and lower humidity favour the covid spreading.
Our summer is high temperature low humidity, but winter is lower temperature, higher humidity. The temperature and humidity factors counter balance each other.
Apparently it's humidity that makes the difference (low humidity slows the virus). So all good if you live up north and we open up in June.

Benefits of COVID-19 booster shots in WA would start to wane after March: Chief Health Officer
The level of vaccine protection would be at its best at the end of March, according to WA’s medical advice, as the government stays quiet on when borders might open.
Round and round in circles mcgowan will go

Our Omicron outbreak takes off and we open up between mid Feb and mid March this year. The final effect ends up being extremely similar to if we didn't have an existing Omicron outbreak and we'd opened up on Feb 5. It ends up being a bit better than if we'd opened up on Feb 5 with our existing outbreak going.
decrease in humidity will increase in covid case is what the following article said.
New research finds link between COVID-19 and lower humidity
If COVID-19 is a seasonal illness, is Australia’s easing of social distancing restrictions going into winter a good idea?

You could be right here
From the posted article above
The Chief Health Officer recommended a ‘case number threshold’ be established for opening the international and interstate borders if Omicron outbreaks grew to large levels before whatever the new planned opening date was.
“If the Omicron disease were to enter WA prior to WA opening, or the current outbreak becomes established, consideration should be given to opening the borders when WA reaches a community daily caseload above a threshold level, which would require assessment to ensure that this would not further exacerbate the outbreak,” Dr Robertson said.

He also mentioned diminishing booster effects the longer they delay the opening. Sounds like we might open sooner rather than later.
Gabba thanks. I live opposite so could watch every couple of weeks.

Hall of Famer
Having 7 News on in the background, their poll had 73% of respondents agreeing with the decision to delay reopening.
Obviously in no way scientific but I found that number quite high, I expected closer to 50/50, especially given the noise on social media.

I think it makes sense to keep the borders closed, I agree with his decision.
I definitely feel sorry for people who were expecting to be able to see their family in the couple of weeks, it's a f****d situation.
I think a lot of the extra angst is around his messaging, he's been standing firm on the opening date as the 5th of Feb when he probably should have set the scene weeks ago that with the changing situation Feb 5th wasn't locked in.
Most who agree with it probably haven’t posted anything on social media. Tends to be those who disagree who voice their opinions more and that’s for anything
They are generally the family oriented persons

So, does that mean winter is the best time?
A 70/30 split makes sense. A majority want it but there is still a rather large minority.

Probably a fair indication of the % of the population who want to go visit family or have family come here
Not sure. Looks like there are counter balancing effects on tempeature and humidity of our dry summer and wet winter.
The winter and summer effect on Covid might not be significant in Perth

I guess the thing with winter is that people are inside in close quarters more often than in summer
