‘Research released today has shown that despite warnings of a new COVID-19 wave, nearly two thirds of Australians are complacent about the risks of infection.

A quantitative research survey conducted by Pfizer Australia showed that compared to a year ago, nearly two thirds (60%) of Australians believe the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic is now over, with a similar number (61%) being less concerned about the impact of COVID-19 in their community.

Professor Robert Booy, Infectious Diseases Specialist and Paediatrician, University of Sydney, has warned against complacency during the current wave, saying: “Protection against COVID-19 infection requires several steps, including ensuring your vaccinations are up to date, practicing COVID safe behaviours and ensuring if you do test positive to COVID, you act fast by talking to your GP to learn if anti-viral medicines are right for you.”
