COVID-19 response

Modelling Report for National Cabinet

Doherty Institute has advised the Australian government for the transition to nation reopening based upon the vaccination progress in the modelling report. This 4-phase transition plan depends upon the percentage (70%/*80%) of the fully vaccinated eligible population(16 years or older).[3][4][5][6] In February 2022, the Doherty Institute advised against periodic six-month boosters.[7]
