Plus, we've put fairly decent mitigations in place for the older Victorians. Still to tackle problems in child care, schools, etc.

Agree, and not too different from the global experience to date at the beginning of waves. Maybe our RACF outbreaks in VIC skewed previous patterns. In saying that, the 0-9 may be higher this time, or may just reflect higher testing in these brackets.https://twitter.com/DrPieterPeach/status/1315621617922314241 …

It would seem that we have vaccinated quite a few under 50.... behavior would have to be part of this? (vaccination from DH population from statistica)pic.twitter.com/5CN4tTaIyI

Would be interested to see test numbers for each group as well. Older age groups possibly lower exposure as better able to stay home, but curious to know if vaccinated people less likely to present for testing either b/c they don't think they need to or don't have symptoms?

And when you combine that with a lockdown where older people are less likely to be the sort of "essential workers" exposed in the course of their employment.
