Not sure but should Ignorance be a fail safe? Do you think most would have some basic knowledge of what behaviours are risky and what aren’t? Do you think most people should understand you shouldn’t be visiting family/friends and if you do limit the time spent up close indoors? That the more shops and places you visit the higher at risk you place yourself? Do you need the government to tell you to limit that behaviour?
I suppose as Baloo points out it may be a bit of a natural cull coming up, if you actively choose to not get vaccinated or choose to put yourself at risk by making unnecessary movements you will have to wear the consequences.
We don’t seem to quote the R number anymore , the reinfection rate.
NSW still has R at around 1.2 which means that on average every positive case is infecting 1.2 people. The only way to get that down is for more positive people to be isolating when they become infectious which is by lockdown or simply let it go up until vaccination rates start to bring it down.
The fact that it is 1.2 means the cases will rise and 500 a day in September may be conservative

On my evening walk last night the basketball courts nearby were chockers. It was at the same level as pre-COVID - absolutely insane. 5-on-5 at both ends of each of the courts, not a mask in sight, plenty more sitting watching on. Police station is only just up the road so obviously they dont care.
When I’m out I’ve noticed there is definitely more traffic on the road in this lockdown than the previous ones.
Grim in Sydney.
Gladys's ideology has been flushed down the crapper.
individual rights, commerce is king, small govt.
has failed
and become
call in the army and tax the *smile* out people on the spot.
what a *smile* up.
and ideological driven *smile* up at state and federal level.
put LNP last at the next election.

At what point can the federal government step in and relieve Gladys of her post? The NSW leadership is clearly not up to the task.
On the other hand she and her arrogant crew deserve to stay and be engraved in the annals of infamy.

Its staggering what is happening in NSW right now. Honestly COVID has been going on for 1.5 years now, we had the example of what happened here in Melbourne last year to lean on as a local case study, and yet still this has happened. Unbelievable.
If this is not a reason to completely shut the border to NSW, apart from permits in border areas, then I don’t know what is. There should be no flights from Sydney whatsoever. Andrews can implement this. If he does not he risks an ongoing lockdown in Victoria. If Gladys can’t get her *smile* together then it is up to other states to protect themselves from her incompetence and stupidity.
Just wait until the dreams start. They download instructions to your brain while you sleep.Second jab today - phone has never worked better, getting personal messages from Bill Gates and, quite strangely, the ghost of Steve Jobs
