Drop in the ocean

Drop in the oceanNewcastle from Stockton. See the former Gentlemans Club (!) now Business Club which has never lost its outlook over the water.  The original high rise 'flats' on the hill in Wolfe street are lost from view. IS the name Segenhoe or Wirraway Flats?  Built as early as the 30s  multi story. 
'What WAS your name' is a common expression from the doctor's receptionist. Well, it still IS such and such!  As a thankful, fully vaccinated person - two jabs - that puts me among the 15% in the state. Yes, 15. A long long way to go but at last flexibility in the supply of the vaccination is carried out in the most infected areas of Sydney, where cases are not declining, lockdown extended till end of August.
No priority is given to vaccination in the hot spot by increase of supplies from the Feds, not a matter of depriving or begging others for vaccine but a prudent targeting of the most acute problem arising only in Sydney. 
Only at this stage is public health getting into top gear as to trying new ways in Sydney.
 It would be best to prepare with more urgency in Newcastle if only enough doses were available.
