Sydney's covid cases peaked when about 37% of the total population had two doses of vaccine. So why is Melbourne still rising at 41% double dosed?
Here's a thread exploring the latest vaccination data. [1/9] New cases peaked for most problematic Sydney SA4s once they reached 30-40% double dosed (all ages). However Eastern Suburbs didn't peak until 46%, and SA4s with fewer cases peaked around 50-55% except Northern Beaches which hasn't peaked yet (at 62%) - complacency perhaps? [2/9]

Melbourne traffic is busier in the second lockdown compared to the first lockdown. Last week, weekdays were only down ~30% on February levels, compared to ~40% in the first lockdown (early April). Why the difference? Lets investigate.. [thread 1/5] #covid19australia Okay, so school years 11 and 12 resumed (at school) last week, but Friday's traffic was busier than lockdown 1 during commuter peaks, school peaks, and interpeak. It seems plausible that more people have been going to work in lockdown 2. [2/5]
