Average five day incubation... the government would almost be better off extending the lockdown until next weekend as a precaution rather than ending it and possibly having to reinstate it.
The timing of the protest was... interesting.
Doubt it. I've been living with mandated masks outside and inside public places for well over a year now. Masks help, but aren't the answer. And then you'll always get people who don't wear them properly which sort of defeats the purpose. But as a measure to protect yourself, definitely helps.
Reminds me of the face mask *smile* meme
Cause I don't want to die from COVID?
Because I don't want long COVID?
Because I don't want to be in lockdown forever?
Because I want to reduce the chance of passing on COVID to my daughter?
Thing is, the government estimates of risk are idiotic. I may be less likely to die from COVID than the jab as numbers are right now. But the opposite is true if I lived in Sydney. Or anywhere else in the world. And if (when) we're in a situation like Sydney is again, you can't just switch on being vaccinated.
The reality is, over the long term, I'm much more likely - much - to suffer from Covid than any shot.
It’s some of the most stupidest most simplistic analysis I’ve seen naively assuming the level of covid in the community is static and adjusting reactively to that level. Not taking into account the cost of lockdowns to maintain the status quo and the risk of the situation changing anyway is just completely *smile*.
The ATAGI advice for NSW has changed today to over 20s should get it.
With that said The technical advice givers in my corporate space take very little risk because they know of it goes wrong they will be blamed. So it comes on to the business line (in this case the government) to interpret it / ask questions and make more holistic decisions AND live with the consequences.
make your own interpretation of that but to me it comes back to leadership and the failure to turn vaccination into a race and incentivise it appropriately and live with the deaths that that will cause whilst understanding you will never be praised for the businesses and lives you save.
I never will.
Is that based on the fear of covoid being spread like what u saw overseas?
Fair point considering the guy who originally had the Delta flew on a plane from Adelaide to Melbourne which was full . Not one person on the flight infected . Interesting to say the least
Gap exams for year 11 which were to take place on the 29th July now Postponed to the 14th Aug , assume lockdown will continue
Yes. Both were before the formation of COVID quarantine Victoria and the direct involvement of the public hospital system in the hotels for COVID positive people.
So in that way we have learned from our mistakes
Vaccine sceptic who joked he’s ‘got 99 problems but a vax ain’t one’ dies from COVID-19
After revealing the death of his church member, Hillsong founder Brian Houston said COVID-19 vaccines are a “personal decision for each individual”.
More stories like this need to shared for people to perhaps learn.

It’s like comparing apples to oranges . Different health systems
Different lifestyle
What’s of interest was the Dictator Dan saying that he couldn’t understand why people protests , seriously?
every second retail shop/ business in major shopping strips are closed
What an imbecile
Agree. I have little hope it will be effective for folks that are in the right wing / religious information bubble until their friends / family / colleagues have severe conditions or die.
