Reopening with thousands of cases a day
What's That Rash? - A podcast by ABC listen - Tuesdays

Greater Melbourne will finally come out of lockdown a minute before the strike of midnight tonight, which will be a huge relief to millions of people. But the city comes out of lockdown with high daily caseloads - with the rolling five day average being around 1850.

And does reopening with a large caseload in a highly vaccinated population even matter?
