Will 2023 be the end of Covid?

New data from the ACT Government shows just 20% of people who reported a Covid infection in December were known to have previously had the illness. Australia’s high rate of hybrid immunity continues to trend making us more equipped to cope with new outbreaks than most other countries. Infectious disease specialists say the trend refers to the double shield of previous infection and vaccination, but they warned this could change if Aussies don’t keep up with their vaccine doses.

In 2022, Australia saw the most deaths from Covid as the first time getting Covid is when it’s the most dangerous, this was due to the high rates of spreading according to one of Australia’s top disease experts, Professor Peter Collignon. With new variants being able to evade treatments it continues to be a challenge when treating COVID-19.

In this episode, we speak to Associate Professor, Paul Griffin Director of Infectious Diseases at Mater Health about the Covid forecast for 2023.
