Seems everyone and their dog wants 3rd booster shot currently. No chance of a walk in appointment 125 kms around Canberra. Left my number for ACT AIS appointment at 7am and no callback as yet. I wish they could just say you are number 8372nd in the queue or whatever. I conclude there is a supply shortage. I suspect it was first come first served for those that went with the program.
Meanwhile John Campbell of Covid talkies - I pharaphrase - dont take Paracetamol if you catch it - let the fever amplify its purpose, and 4000 I.U of vit D was debated. I do not know if any Australian hospitals are whacking new arrivals with high levels of Calcerfotrol , as did some in Spain. It reduced demand, ICU beds. Imagine that. NT and WA should consider that idea, given that elimination is now assured of going ballistic, with high breakthrough rates. I don't feel sorry for the fence-sitters by-choice.
The take home message is Omicron is mild for most, much milder than Delta. So let it rip is not so bad. Meanwhile my friend are hunkering down at home, afraid to go out, not spending any money at the shops or Hardware box stores.
