The WA Premier Mark McGowan will keep his state closed to NSW , even to the vaccinated:
WA's border to remain closed to NSW for Christmas regardless of vaccination status
Mr McGowan has not budged on his hard border stance, today explaining vaccinated people could still spread COVID-19.
"Even though you might be vaccinated, you can still transmit the virus," he said
There are no exceptions to this rule, including NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian who has taken a somewhat Brahminic or rabbinic attitude to COVID, declaring that she will not want to be around anyone who is unvaccinated.

AZ vaccine designer Dame Prof Sarah Gilbert 's Vaccitech share price continues to flounder despite Gilbert warning Australians that they will die if unvaccinated: Taxpayers paying for her vaccine should treat her product and claims with the same scepticism as investors

Dame Professor Sarah Gilbert's Vaccitech share price has a had a torrid day ,despite her Australian media blitz:
As reported on this blog (see below), Vaccitech's IPO flopped, and the company continues to trade below its IPO price of USD 17. This is despite its COVID vaccine story and its backers which include Google, TenCent, and Sequoia. The market is clearly not impressed with Vaccitech's potential, despite its COVID story. Taxpayers who are paying for the AZ COVID vaccine ought to be equally sceptical.

AstraZeneca COVID vaccine designer Prof Sarah Gilbert warns the unvaccinated that they will die; meanwhile her vaccine company's share price flopped at IPO, continues to flounder

Prof Sarah Gilbert, the scientist who led the team that created the Oxford/AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine, is set for a payday of more than £20m as the biotech firm she co-founded prepares to float on the stock market in the US.
Gilbert, who became a household name as a result of her work creating Oxford’s Covid-19 vaccine, owns 5.2% of Vaccitech, a Oxford University spin-out company that owns the biotechnology behind the AstraZeneca vaccine and others for Mers, hepatitis B, the virus that causes shingles, and a range of cancers.
The IPO document filed at the SEC does not disclose any sale of shares by existing shareholders, only fund raising.
So it's really important that people look at the whole picture. With the Delta variant, which is spreading so rapidly, it's going to reach everybody who is not vaccinated and also reach those people who are vaccinated and even if they then get infected, they tend to have a much milder disease. They are protected against hospitalisation.
So really we can't hide from this virus any more. Initial plans were to try to eliminate the virus. That's not going to be possible with the versions that we have spreading now. We have to be prepared to meet it and to deal with it, and that means vaccination.
