Bullshit. What he actually said was

"I think if we do start to see significant rises in cases in some parts of the country, they may need to adjust back those dates in order to avoid the situation coming into effect,"

How is this "wants us to remain in lockdown"?
 
2396 cases v 2491 last wk v 2763 wk before & 4052 wk before that.

22 deaths v 38 last wk v 45 wk before & 43 wk before that.

713, 229 pillar 1 & 2 tests - significant fall from over 1 million yesterday.

But up from 668K last week 621K wk before and 681 K wk before that.

Not sure if herd immunity is a possibility if this particular virus can mutate so rapidly.

Sounds like you've escaped the worse (or the vax has helped....dunno). I was floored for nigh on two weeks.
Carry on recuperating mate....need those Trinity Towers released soon...
