Australian authorities now saying 3 VAX is considered fully vaccinated (or as they now say "up to date"). Although this is just a suggestion at this stage, this WILL mean compulsory boosters every 6 months. The exception is foreigners, who will get to take jobs from Australians who don't want infinite clot shots.
