As the rate of vaccination in NSW increases and the smallest of restrictions are lifted, people are looking ahead to what we can expect our lives to look like heading towards the end of the year. “We expect September to still be a tough month, with rising numbers,” said
NSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro. “We are not going to see until mid to late September a lot of the vaccines kick in, because even though you’ve had your first dose or second dose there’s a 2-3 week lag on that.” Mr Barilaro said at some point there will be a moment in time where vaccines do kick in and we will start
seeing hospitalisation and deaths minimised. NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian confirmed that as more people came out to get vaccinated, a peak of cases would soon be reached. “It gives us heart and hope that by the middle of October we will see 70% of our adult population fully vaccinated,” she said at Friday’s 11am press

conference. “We anticipate a peak in cases in the next fortnight. “But it’s not the number of cases we need to be focusing on, it’s how many of those cases end up in our intensive care wards.” Ms Berejiklian said in the past fortnight, the amount of vaccines that have gone into the arms of people living in those communities with
high rates of virus has been outstanding, and that will have a positive effect on the spread and the likely number of cases. “However, in terms of hospitalisation and ICU beds there is often a week or two week lag which means the highest number of people in our intensive care wards are likely to present during the month of October,” she said.
