•
Sufficient vaccine dosages available by early October to
achieve 80% of eligible Australians vaccinated; supply
ramping up from September 2021
Based on current rate of uptake and global benchmarks,
Australia should hit national thresholds² for reopening in
December 2021:
Phase B threshold of 70% vaccination of eligible
population - eased restrictions on vaccinated
residents, lockdowns less likely but possible
Phase C threshold of 80% vaccination of eligible
population highly targeted domestic lockdowns
only and trigger for gradual opening of international
borders to approved countries. Proportionate
quarantine and reduced requirements for inbound
vaccinated travellers
-
Thresholds can be achieved earlier if uptake
accelerates to Canadian profile
As evidenced globally, vaccination rates can also be
influenced further by incentive levers
