00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 2: talk this morning, as you'll see in the paper page

7
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 2: five is the love bubble the singles. This is exciting though,

8
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: and I feel it's a great chance for you and

9
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: after to step things up. Will he be moving in

10
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 2: chee cheek? You to ask the question, is Arthur moving?

11
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're allowed to ask the question, but I'll just

12
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 3: say no comment.

13
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: Comment.

14
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: This is good for your mental health, o glad. This

15
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: isn't it for people? People?

16
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's for people actually that aren't in a relationship,

17
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 3: because that's the moment if you're If you have a relationship,

18
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 3: you're allowed to see your partner. But if this is

19
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 3: for people who live by themselves, are able to choose

20
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 3: a friend or a relative. It could be your mum,

21
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 3: it could be a brother or sister, and you have

22
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: to have it the same person can can visit you, right,

23
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 3: So at least then you don't feel isolated because we're

24
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 3: in this for another month. At least we know that

25
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 3: people on there your own won't feel completely isolated. Yes,

26
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 3: you can go out and exercise, but the singles bubble

27
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 3: or the singles alty means that you can pick one person,

28
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: but it has to be the same perce.

29
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: You can't switch it up, can you halfway through?

30
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 3: You can't.

31
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: What you can't switch it up halfway through?

32
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 3: No, no, you can't because then you can spread the virus.

33
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 3: So it's going to be the one person. And as

34
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 3: I said, it could be a relative, it could be

35
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 3: a friend, a work colleague, but so long as it's

36
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 3: just the one person.

37
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad. As we spoke to the Prime Minister before,

38
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: a statistic that I saw on the television last night

39
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: which really got me down is that New South Wales

40
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: were around about fifteen sixteen percent fully vaccinated. Is that correct, dud?

41
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 3: And that's why I've been pushing hard like for the

42
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 3: last year, because we have to have a sense of

43
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 3: urgency about the vacs because the delta is taking this

44
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 3: strain of the virus is taking over the world, and

45
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 3: the more people who get vaccinated as soon as possible,

46
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: the sooner we'll be able to live freely. And I've

47
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: been kind of shouting that from the rooftops, and I

48
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: really want to encourage everybody to come forward and get

49
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: the vaccine because, as I said, we knocked every other

50
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 3: type of COVID on its head. Well, we've done so

51
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: well in the last day. This felt astrain is unbelievable

52
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 3: and how contagious it is. And the vaccine doesn't only

53
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: keep you alive and keep you out of hospital, but

54
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: it also reduces how contagious you are.

55
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: Can we he did say, Gladys he was a lot

56
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: more positive this time about astrosenica and anyone can go

57
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: and get it. Sarah has done really, really well. She's

58
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: under forty. She went and got the astrosenica.

59
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: Well that's the only thing you've got access to, because

60
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: I agree all the media around her.

61
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean.

62
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 3: It's better than it's better than I mean, it's a

63
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 3: highly effective vaccine, but better than you can't get it.

64
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: You've got a heap of astrosenica, got heaps of And

65
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: the federal authorities only changed their advice last week.

66
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: So until last week they was saying if you're over forty,

67
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: get it, but now they're saying any adults get it,

68
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 3: which is a great use because a lot of people

69
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: in their twenties and thirties and forties. Twenties and thirties

70
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 3: in particular can now get access to it, and we've

71
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 3: got a lot of supply that in your stuff well,

72
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: but we weren't able to it until this week, right,

73
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 3: the Health Advice was saying to us before you can't

74
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 3: give it to anyone under forty. But now they've changed

75
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 3: the federal authorities of changing the health advice, which is

76
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: really good. It means that any any adult can get it.

77
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 3: But obviously now that we're keen to get you twelves

78
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: back to school, those local government areas where the virus

79
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: is really bad, it's really bad where we're keen to

80
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 3: keep the year twelves vaccinated with firess, So kids like

81
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 3: sixteen to eighteen year olds have to have the fires,

82
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 3: but any adult over eighteen can get the asses in

83
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 3: the count glad.

84
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: As we touched on with the Prime Minister as well,

85
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 2: the rally that took place last weekend and the behavior

86
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: that we saw and the rumors earlier this week that

87
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: a second rally would take place this weekend. What is

88
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: your intel on that?

89
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 3: Oh, look, I'm in regular contact with the Police Commission

90
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: he's actually going to be with me today at the

91
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 3: press conference and have something to say about that. So

92
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: it's just shocking. And look, I suspect the case numbers

93
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: will go up before they start coming down, because we've

94
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: had a few events where people unfortunately have done the

95
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 3: wrong thing and passed the virus onto some and other people,

96
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 3: and they're setbacks. I don't want to see more setbacks.

97
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I can't tell you how much it hurts

98
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 3: me when we have to make decisions that really put

99
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: pain on people. But the alternative is to have thousands

100
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 3: and thousands of people with the virus ending up in

101
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 3: hospital or dying, and that's not something that I want

102
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 3: for people in your stuff. Well, which is why we've

103
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 3: got to make these difficult decisions. But once our population

104
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 3: is more vaccinated, once those rates go up, it's safer

105
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 3: to do more to open up, of course, and that's

106
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 3: why the vaccination is key to our freedom. As the

107
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 3: irony is, even though we're in a really difficult position

108
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 3: compared to other states, and other states have gone through

109
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 3: different we've got times are different at different times, we

110
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: could ironically open up earlier if our population gets vaccinated.

111
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: Aince it's possible, wouldn't it be good? It's you know what,

112
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: it's that minority though, Gladys, that scares everyone to death,

113
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: because it's it's the minority who don't care. It's that

114
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: it's that funeral where fifty people went to the wake

115
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: and then I other thirty people actually forty five now

116
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: forty five, and then someone else passes away from the family,

117
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: And how you convince there's obviously a real disregard for

118
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: the rules. There's a lot of people that are really

119
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: scared that that minority disregard and we saw it last

120
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: week with the anti lockdown protests. They will keep this

121
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 1: lockdown going for a very, very long time. Are you

122
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: prepared to get real hard if it does continue, Gladys, Well, look, we've.

123
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: Been hard from day one. And actually, most people this

124
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 3: is a thing. It only takes a handful of people

125
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 3: to do the wrong thing. Most people are doing the

126
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 3: right thing. And we compare data on mobility with Sydney

127
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 3: compared to Melbourne when they're in lockdown, and Sydney starters

128
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 3: are actually staying home more so our mobility data is

129
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 3: telling us most people are doing the right thing. But

130
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 3: as you said, when when people to schipid things like

131
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 3: turn up to an I legal protest or knowingly break

132
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 3: the rules. And I know how hard it must be

133
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: if someone in your family dies and you want to

134
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 3: comfort your love ones. But we just can't in this

135
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: environment because it's just has a ripple effect. But the

136
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 3: important thing to know is once our vaccination makes get

137
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 3: to a high enough level, it will be safe to

138
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: do more, because then it's up. It'll be a choice

139
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: for people whether they' vaccinated or not, and people will

140
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 3: know the consequences. Whilst we're in the stage where we're

141
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 3: still trying to get more vaccines to make sure we

142
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: give everybody the opportunity to get vaccinated, we're in this

143
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 3: half way house now where we're just keen to get

144
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 3: as many jabs in as possible. And then once we

145
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 3: have you know, a majority of our population vaccinated, we

146
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: can take better decisions about freedom and doing what other

147
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 3: parts of the world.

148
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 2: Let us where are we with trades?

149
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 3: Oh, look, from Saturday, we're allowing outside of those eight

150
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 3: local government areas where the vaccine is really rampant. We're sorry,

151
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 3: where the virus is really ramped at the moment. From Saturday,

152
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 3: you can have contact with trading, So yeah, if there's nothing,

153
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: If there's so long as there's no human contact, trade

154
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 3: is to get back to work.

155
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 2: That's good to know.

156
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: And construction on non occupied sites. So if there's a
