All borders to reopen.

The cycle of new variant is getting faster , Pfizer saying 100 days to make booster , oil has gained %50 of its losses , futures back up in states . Borders will be closed just in time to reopen . Whiplash will be only concern .
however I heard an interview this morning with the South African doctor who was the first to find this new strain. She seemed not to be overly concerned as it appears that while it is more infectious, the symptoms are mild with no hospitalisations. So far of course and we will need another two or three weeks to confirm. But the sharemarkets are bouncing off their days low quite convincingly. I have bought in. So fingers crossed this will be a storm in a Petri dish.
as its quite apparent already the borders are slamming shut and travel will stop.
Israel has gone hard but they always do.
Australia’s international border is OPEN.
“We can start SHIPPING in one hundred days” is what he actually said.

Nu’ is too easily confounded with ‘new,’ and ‘Xi’ was not used because it is a common last name,
As predicted, all borders never to open , still can’t go to many places in Australia. Will not get to WA until the masses form a civil war at the border .
we’re mostly 90% vaxed and there is really no concessions.

Foxxster, the people in "little" Australia couldn't give a stuff about the NHS, so he lost me in the first ten seconds and went downhill from there. A mocking tone of voice when talking dangerous nonsense really isn't the way to change anyone's opinions.

We can travel overseas without an exemption.
Australians can return with a 72 hour isolation.
Only WA and QLD are holding up the border freedoms.

Reports on the radio just now that Jetstar have cancelled all flights to WA until the end of January. Looking at the Jetstar web site, it appears to be true.
I think pointing out abject hypocrisy is always welcome. And deserves mocking. As for dangerous nonsense.. ????
Looks as if WA is intending to open up next year and throw some money behind it:
The package focuses on international education, airlines, tourism and sourcing skilled labour.
It includes $65 million for re-establishing pre-COVID flight routes to Perth and securing new direct routes to Perth from countries such as Germany, India, China and Vietnam.
There will also be $10 million for more intrastate flights.
WA government to spend $185 million in effort to lure students, tourists, workers back when borders open

This is a good article about vaccines and other treatments in general and with relation to the new variant.
