Health authorities have issued an appeal for the 'missing 50 percent' of eligible people in New South Wales who are yet to get their COVID-19 booster shot to book in their jab. DETAILS: 9News

NSW is lagging behind other states and territories in its booster shot uptake, with only around 47 percent of eligible residents having received their third dose.

"What's happened to that 50 percent? Why aren't they out and about getting their boosters?" Mr Hazzard said.NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard has made an appeal for all eligible residents to get their booster shot."It is much less likely that you'll end up being ill, it's much less likely that you will end up in hospital, much less likely that you will end up in ICU and, of course, much less likely that you will die.

Mr Hazzard said he believed one of the main reasons people were not getting boosters was because people still thought they had to wait six months after their second COVID-19 vaccination to get their booster.

The gooberment broke the deal first. This is what they bought with their bullshit.

I have stopped my blood donations and suspended my organ donor registration in protest to vaccine mandates. I encourage everyone to do the same. This protest highlights how healthy unvaccinated people are and that we are good people not the villains we are made out to be.

Bhahaha, the first 2 jabs don't stop you catching it so why would the non working booster be any better? People are waking up to the fact government and media are fooling them.

😂😂😂 suck shit everyone is waking up to the bullshit

Adam_Creighton People are starting to wake up to the fact covid vaccines are far from safe and efficacy only lasts a short time before it becomes negative or more likely to be infected, hospitalised and die than unvaccinated.

Just leave the 50% alone

NONE of these stop you getting or spreading so REALLY WHAT FOR?

Ha all the boosters will be going in the bin , brilliant

No thanks you can have mine! I don't want covid!

Pandemic will be over once enough people stop getting vaccinated!

Make Novavax available as a booster shot, otherwise not risking getting myocarditis I will be sensible wear a mask, socially distance, exercise, maintain a healthy lifestyle, take essential vitamins, minerals, natrual anti-inflamatories e.g. tumeric, garlic, manuka honey.

Australians are more clever than some bureaucrats may think. They learned a lesson with two 💉💉, not going for No. 3 💉💉💉. Forget No. 4 💉💉💉💉.

HA, appeal all you want, it ain't happening.

Covids still a thing I'm sure we are at a point where we just accept it's a virus and go about our lives now.

Dear Health Authorities, please leave us alone now. Regards, The 50%.

Adam_Creighton Won’t happen. 50% dgaf

Adam_Creighton

Adam_Creighton

Adam_Creighton Not Fkn likely

can you list the reasons why we should get it?

No booster for me or any of our family. The wheels are falling off the scare wagon. You need an new, more deadly variant and quick if you want the booster to be taken. nobooster

Hand off mate , you booster you kids and your family.

I'd say a fair few of us (myself included) have had COVID and been advised we shouldn't get a booster for 6-weeks

Probably because of the actual science

Leave us alone

Doesn’t work. The virus isn’t as bad as they try to sell it. They forced people to take the first 2 with threats and tyranny. Game over.

Finally it seems people are waking up to this nonsense, the vaccine DOESN’T WORK , it’s not even a vaccine, stand your ground Australia 🇦🇺

Leave them the fuck alone

After booster

Bin it 💉💉💉💉💉💉💉🪣🪣🪣🪣🪣🪣🪣🪣

It's insane that 50% of people are still so blind and uninformed to have gone and taken the 3 jab! Do they live on this planet? IQ test, not a passed there!

As many as 50% of the eligible NSW population went and got boosters? Wow. Still got a ways to go then.

Because it’s experimental

Stick that booster were the sun don’t shine … you crooked pharma shilling ….

And business will follow suit . But low and behold they did not except the gvt to cut and run . Your profits and bottom line suffer . Wake up and look at the around the world .

No thanks.

Yes, he's pushing the vaccine hard or he won't pass his performance review🤪

Srsly just stop it’s becoming pathetic how hard you are pushing this. The ppl that want a booster will get one. Go back to clinging to whatever relevance you have left.

I got the booster because work mandated it. Otherwise I wouldn’t have because the sheet just doesn’t work.

Three is not good enough, but four makes a difference. Let’s take example from Israel 🇮🇱

Here come all the Twitter “experts” telling us how it is!!

They aren't missing, most of the 50% likely don't want it. Completely their choice too

Just wonder how many of this 50% have already had Omicron or survived Delta ?

People lost interest when the gov stopped following the science

🖕🏻

I think Australians have woken up that it is not effective bud.

Two was enough from the experts so are they no longer experts?

They heard the Pfizer CEO and took him at his word!

FrankfurtZack Aussie land horror land

FrankfurtZack 50% who won’t obey any longer…🤷🏻‍♂️💉🚫

Make it mandatory for the media

Missing 90% protection rate or any benefit from the first two doses they most likely had to choose because you cannot live without money and needed to keep a job! humanrightsviolation

Waiting for appointment to hurry up

Don't get the third jab They can't mandate it until enough people have got it If half the population haven't got it, a mandate will obviously cripple the economy That's why they keep talking about changing the def of 'fully vaccinated' to 3 doses, but still haven't done it

no

No one getting boosted because all us pricks got the omnicron, man. 😂

🔥🔥🔥Many people have told me they won’t be getting it…

🤡

Perhaps it’s a bit like the RAT’s the Prime Minister was saying “Yeah you bet, we’ve got them, stock up wrinkles they are in the Chemists “ but they weren’t it was all crap. So maybe the boosters just aren’t available.

Hate to tell you Fim.....a vast majority, including me won't be getting it

Around 60% of people I know had covid in this last month so maybe they all are going to wait.

FrankfurtZack

No one is getting it, cause everyone was forced to get the last two. What is the incentive? Oh and I have gotten the booster. 😉

Eligibility isnt the issue - supply is!

They were so hard to get initially that people just gave up.
