Despite I agree healthcare workers may be able to have their holiday earlier, I don't agree with the third category of people where so call those working in crucial sectors get it first. I definitely won't agree with train drivers, bus drivers, or those who work in a slaughterhouse etc those...

On the other hand, whilst we are discussing vaccination for entry I would wonder how travel will be possible at the initial stage of vaccine availability or after vaccine is approved and not yet (or rarely) available. I would say we need to have discussions of travel bubble and ensure we will...

Well that's right. Another issue is at the initial stage of vaccine rollout where there may even not enough vaccines for people in the country, so how can we ensure citizens/PR will be able to get vaccinated if they wish to, and yet they were not able to get vaccinated in their own country...

Another thing is that there are still a lot of Australians stranded overseas and I am sure they want to come back once the borders are open. So how are you going to ensure they are vaccinated before arrival, especially those who come from countries where vaccines is not available? I would say...

I would be happy for my foreign family membersto pay fora vaccine in Australia, rather than vaccinated in HK, because there is no western vaccine ordered, and I am seriously concerned about the safety of anything medicial made in China. Yet if the government even don't provide vaccination on...

The thing is, is there space at the airport that is hygienic for people to be vaccinated on the spot? Also, I am really concerned that if we are not in the front of the queue for a vaccine, we will not be able to catch the first flight out of Australia and go back to where we come from.

Requiring incoming passengers to be vaccinated is going to delay when the borders can open to people from overseas, because not everyone can get vaccinated in time and with the vaccine that they prefer to take. Moreover, there are many people from other countries, in particular Asian countries...

https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/international-travellers-without-covid-vaccination-to-be-forced-into-quarantine-20201125-p56hza.html This is outrageous. I think we should launch a lawsuit against this rule as forced vaccination is simply assault, which is a criminal offense.

So it appears that vaccines is available from January 2021, and according to the latest survey, 6% will not get the vaccine whilst 36% is not certain whether you will get vaccine or not. When vaccine arrives in January 2021, will you get vaccinated?

I am getting married to a Malaysian girl next month and I really want Malaysia's border to be opened soon so that we can go back to celebrate with her family. Yet quite unfortunately there are lots of cases (about 1,000 a day) in Malaysia and I cannot foresee we will be able to go until they are...

I wonder how about Vic?

I think the National Cabinet has decided that the distribution will first go to healthcare professionals, followed by aged persons and people working in critical sectors. I would say if Pfizer can provide 10 million doses from March, and millions from AstraZenaca possibly from January, we could...

I suppose there is a degree of over-reaction there. From a high amount of tests, they were only able to pick up 2 cases yesterday and 0 cases today. I think it shows SA has little confidence in their system and they need to rely on lockdowns to contain it. Between now and Easter, where...

It will be apparent to have a false declaration if we temporarily close automatic border clearance and ensure ABF officers check stamps. If you are in Singapore in past 14 days, there should be stamps indicating when you come in and out of Singapore, and that is the best evidence of you had...

I could, especially with Hong Kong-Singapore ATB, I could go back to Hong Kong without quarantine, provided I do tests in Singapore and stay for 14 days. Yet as an expat, and my work will require F2F contact, it is not able to come back to Australia which is the key issue. As an University...

True. At this stage, if you open Singapore, then you are opening to Hong Kong, mainland China, Vietnam and NZ. But having said that, I think this could ease the pressure of hotel quarantine as those citizens will have to stay in Singapore for 14 days before arrival. Perhaps universities should...

Singapore will be another safe bubble partner. 8 days with no community cases already.

Same here. Antidepressant and antipsychotic meds are required to calm me down for these negative thoughts for not able to travel overseas. I am worried that the internal borders are one of the reasons for a failed travel bubble discussion. If even some states don't have confidence for other...

Getting stuck in Australia is like living in hell. If we are to give up hope for international travel, mine as well commit suicide. Even though I have Australian citizenship, because I am not PM of Australia, I don't treat this country as home, and so as many here who are desperate to go back...

Exactly right. Our borders are closed just because our politicians want to keep their jobs. Vaccines are here, they are getting approved. So where is the plan to reopen the borders?
