Every Question We Have About Covid's 4th Wave

It may sound like Déjà vu, but Covid’s back for a fourth wave. And as much as we’d all love to stick our fingers in our ears and close our eyes, the reality is, cases across Australia are on the rise. While figures are still 85% below the previous peak of late July, average daily cases last week were 47% higher than the week before. The spike has led to Queensland raising its alert level from amber to green, and the push to get up to date with vaccines is starting to increase. So what do know about these new variants, and how concerned should we be? Today we answer all of your questions about the current Covid wave, and what it could mean for the next few weeks as we countdown to Christmas. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?
