@IndependentSage gov vaccination criteria has just reclassified most CEV to underlying conditions. Many vulnerable moved from category 4 to 6 on priority list. Nothing has changed medically or survival chances, highly transmissible new variant puts CEV at more risk. Is this safe?
Families like Laura's are being put in an impossible situation by Government.

@whazell@theipaper It is too soon to stop wearing masks. We should be erring on the side of caution. Our children will be unnecessary exposed to long covid. ๐
@lara_wong Those in charge voted for by the people, have access to the best scientific advice available and should follow this so the public can trust their safety is paramount. LFTโs are another example of the government misleading the public and this lie will cost lives
We knew most people wouldn't understand the difference between an LFD test and a PCR, or the accuracy issues.... and why should they?
LFDs may cause more harm than good if people think they aren't infected and had a test to prove it. Also, valuable info on variants may be lost.
