Forum –
I would say the vast majority of people I see on the Central Coast are either not wearing a mask and seemingly daring anybody to ask them why they’re not wearing a mask.
Or they only have the mask over their mouth and not their nose.
This new virus is doing the rounds and our community is making me feel very unsafe.

Yes me to, people on the coast are extremely selfish, i’m too scared to go anywhere anymore due to people being this way. I have lung disease and even with 2 vaccinations I still feel vulnerable, the younger gen on the coast don’t give a damn about us who are vulnerable, my thoughts are with you indeed, stay safe hun.
I feel exactly the same as you Ellen
I agree. I have immunocompromised family and everyone acting like covid is over has been so stressful. We could do with learning from our Japanese brethren and wear masks properly out of respect of other people in our community.
I feel the same as Ellen Christie. I have lung disease also. I am getting the booster this week, but I still feel extremely vulnerable. So many don’t care about others in the community that are more vulnerable to Covid
I have heard from people that alot of people are not wearing masks. I shop at Erina Fair and I must say mostly all people of all ages are wearing masks. It really depends where you live. I do get annoyed with some people not covering their noses???
I won’t be stepping out until things settle down alot more. I have had part of one lung removed this year! I’m not taking any chances. I’m triple vaxed now Get your boosters asap people
My Haematoloist advised by Atagi
I have just had a 3rd primary mrna covid jab, and a booter in 2 months
Be extremely careful
Our new Premier is nuts. Why would he cancel the indoor mask-wearing mandate at this time of year, when so many people are crowded into shopping centres, etc. Dr Kerry Chant – the medical voice of reason – seems to have been pushed to the background. It beggars belief, when doctors and epidemiologists are advising us to still wear masks whenever we cannot socially distance. Our Premier is playing Russian roulette with our lives. Yes, we have to learn to live with Covid, but a free for all at this time of year is madness. It is going to be one hell of a scary ride for those of us who are older or immunocompromised.
Omicron will soon be dominant on the Central Coast -especially in the Wyong/Tuggerah and lakes areas – because almost nobody wears a mask inside the big shopping malls. In Newcastle this week people are running for cover. On the Coast? Nope, ñobody seems to give a damn.
What we desperately need is Dr Kerry Chant to be the NSW Premier. That way we might all survive. Aleast more then 90% of us are doing the right thing. Hang in there everyone, we will get through this pandemic one day.
Ridiculously unbelievable. Taking away the QR safe code with growing, spreading COVID, we won’t even know if we are a casual or close contact. Taking away the mask, if you feel unsafe wear it. If your an idiot, don’t. Yes, let us see if the premier will take himself and his family exposing them to crowded areas of shopping centres, restaurants etc, without wearing masks and registering their location. This is obsured. If he tells you to jump off the bridge, would you? He doesn’t care, he just cares about the economy. But people are idiots to listen. Baby’s from the age of three months are tested positive. Wake up people!!!
If you have a compromised health issue then yes you should wear masks. Why do you expect everyone else to do it too? Look after your health and stay safe, stop trying to push others around that dont have health issues.
