In breaking news, NSW is about to introduce PCR tests for anyone flying into Sydney.

If they test negative they aren't allowed in.

^ normal masks were always pretty much useless.

They are a deterrent. If you have to wear a mask, you chose to be out in public less. You wont go window shopping in a mall if you have to wear a mask.

Anything that covers your nose and mouth while you breathe provides more protection than wearing nothing, just some coverings provide more protection than others.

The Americans have previously pushed this double mask crap. Pretty sure the senile old man running the country often wore 2 masks.

They have reduced the time for boosters to 4 months from Jan 6, then 3 months from 31 Jan.

What's the bet there will be supply and availability issues when most people are due around the same time.
