        Now, this can't be used to calculate vaccine efficacy, because exposures for vaccinated and unvaccinated are different, but it's still quite interesting especially given that virtually all of these were Delta cases

        This conveniently overlooks the multiple fully and partially vaccinated cases announced in the last week. I realize you can’t change the publication you’re quoting, but I am sure you are aware of these cases and could have mentioned them.

        I’m in no way undervaluing vaccination. But breakthroughs are clearly happening and I fear for Australia following recklessly in the footsteps of countries throwing away their masks like vaccination is completely reliable, and all we need.

        An age breakdown of this table would be interesting. Apart from Aged Care Residents (elderly), how many were in age group eligible for a dose?

        It's almost as if the vaccines are working!

        Research out of Israel now suggesting people will need a third shot, because efficacy rate is dropping of a cliff after a few months. Natural immunity for me thanks.

        Are you saying immunity from having had Covid is stronger and/or lasts longer than immunity from the vaccines?

        This cannot be right. 2 aged care residents were fully vaccinated. Also, these figures largely mirror the population of those exposed (mostly younger who have a very low % of vaccinated). Not saying vaccines don’t work, but this data is meaningless.

        It would actually be amazing if it actually listed all cases since March… it only lists about a third of them… 249 are missing… please try to be more accurate if you want to express a point 👍
