So now that we will all need an app. to confirm that we are vaccinated I and people like me are basically ruled out of participating in life.
I work from home on a computer but I find technology intimidating. I still have a Samsung series 2 phone that doesn't download apps..
There's a whole generation of people like me that will now choose to stay home.
This will sound silly to those of you who deal with this as a matter of course but it's a real fear to me and I'm guessing hundreds of thousands of people. There is no way my elderly parents would cope.
I've accepted that even though I am vaccinated I will be spending the next 30 years at home.
Yesterday I needed petrol for my mower, I got half way to the servo and turned around because I remembered that I would need to QR check in and I don't know how to do that.
The simple solution is to mandate vaccination for all. It's the only way to be safe. But we don't wat to infringe on the rights of those who want to spread a virus.
Yes good point..you can also print out your Vax Cert from medicare and just carry that with you..
That's good advice for the majority.
If I asked my 86 year old Maltese mother to log in to mygov. then link it to her medicare and print out a vaccination certificate my next request could be to build a space shuttle and fly it to Mars.
I struggle to use mygov. People like my parents, the 70 year old retired Greek fruiterer, the 75 year old Lebanese bloke smoking his huka on the verandah, don't even have computers or smart phones.
People like me and them, we're being left behind and we just have to accept it.
