“Have we shut down too hard, too long, especially in Victoria, adding unnecessary economic pain to our health challenge,” he said. “It only makes sense if there is a vaccine, and we still haven't got one, and the budget is predicated on us getting one next year. “Let's hope there is a vaccine, in reality, some sort of a vaccine will be used I reckon, even if it is not highly effective they’ll get it out there and it will give governments some cover to open up more ...
but I still worry we have mismanaged this threat very badly.” Mr Kenny said those countries which had higher mortality rates at first, but falling rates now, might not have been reckless but are likely just ahead of where Australia will eventually end up. “Except we've blown the bank along the way,” he said.

Russia has a vaccine, the choice should be ours in a pandemic.
Australia does not want any filthy poisons. Medications are bad enough.
Oxford vaccine only aims to reduce symptoms from moderate to mild in healthy, non-vulnerable populations, no other safe and effective vaccine in sight (and frankly, where is it going to be effectively tested? Northern hemisphere is pretty much done). This has been a huge waste.
Could someone at SkyNewsAust please point out to this moron that Australia doesn't currently have 10s of thousands dead and that there is no functioning economy while thousands upon thousands are sick and dying...k thx.
Well the virus is no more dangerous than a bad flu at worst . We don’t need a vaccine for that
What will our plan be if the vaccine is further away than expected or if there is none at all ?
I live in the USA trust me enjoy your freedoms while you still can and keep the virus out and down Vic stuffed up but the rest of the states can operate And most people aren’t travelling anywhere OS regardless of numbers so you aren’t missing tourism
Only if the goal is not to open up to the rest of the world. Wonder what other countries with 0 cases are going to do?
