I’m just saying, sometimes I’d love a good lockdown to come back. I miss the quiet times where you didn’t have to pretend to like people you really don’t …

Congratulations @juliette_io and @migga for receiving OAMs today! The effort you guys put in to collect and analyse data and build accessible and informative websites during the pandemic was amazing. Bravo! 👏

TBA A top of 19 today with a little rain about. On this day in 1914 Australia entered WW1 with 400,000 directly participating in combat and non-combat roles. Today is the 2nd anniversary of this account, so just a little nostalgia for old times’ sake. Lots of love, carry on xx

11am for the final daily covid presser. After today details will come in a pre-midday press release. I’ve officially been made redundant. I leave you with the immortal words of Vinnie Jones:

Happy 80%! If you’re out walking you can take the mask off now! And all the other stuff like shop and leave Melbourne 😊 Sooo good to be at this point, all eyes towards 90% in November!!

If you missed the presser: 80% DD hits 6pm Friday. Retail, gyms etc open, no more metro / regional divide At 90% DD (~ 24 Nov) no masks (except certain spaces), no caps, no density limits Here’s your mission: if you’ve had your first jab make sure you get your second!

11:15 today. Nothing overly significant but noticed the fax so thought I’d pass it on. No Dan but Jeroen will be there sporting his delicious beard. What awesome sunshine today!

FYI team: journos have been called to a 10:30am briefing on some updated modelling ahead of the presser. I expect the presser to be around 11:30am but I’ll keep you posted (can’t make the journos go too long between coffees!)

TBA (for old times’ sake) Details of when and how lockdown ends out this morning, once 70% DD hits later this week. To every eligible Victorian who has or is getting vaxxed and to our medical heroes giving the jabs a big THANK YOU. This is your win - we are almost there! 🤗

11:45am. The fax says it’s just Jeroen (he has such a lovely beard as well as a measured, confident tempo to his voice - I like that). Doesn’t look like Dan or Brett will make it so I expect the “lifting lockdown” specifics will come tomorrow. Love to all, have a great weekend xx

Don’t worry, Hobart. Your 3 day lockdown will pass quickly. I mean, our 7 day circuit breaker was over in about 3 months. Easy.
