Then contact tracing in the slums of Brazil, Afghanistan, India would be much easier then. We will maintain the lockdown according to the science and highest medical advice. Note they have never disclosed this so called fantastic science and medical advice or the brilliant model we work on. What about the yesterday's statement from the WHO, that lockdowns were meant to bend the curve only. After that you contact trace. All to hard apparently, just lock it down so much easier. https://www.worldometers.info/corona...try/australia/ The graph shows about a month ago lockdown should of ended. Again today, VIC 13 cases, fully lockdown stage 4, compulsory masks and NSW, 12 cases, fully open, no lockdown where a mask if you wish. And I heard on 3aw today that a lady broke the 5km rule and actually went 6km to get to the IGA shopping centre. Not a good enough excuse I'm afraid, that will be $1652 mam. The talk back is starting to get angry now. Don't hold your breath for Sunday. Get on top of that issue and we will all be better off. |
They need about 2-3 weeks of single digit figures down south before opening the flood gates. That mid teens with mass rapid openings will be back in the 50s in the matter of a month then it’s rinse and repeat and it’s now March and we are back where we are today.
I get the anger and fatigue, and yes this all of result of Spring St, however this cannot get out of hand otherwise it’s going to take until Easter to get back to this point. Starving people of freedom for so long then opening up the gates, has not been done here yet and the results of such rapid movement could go any way. Think of the chaos that will be seen at Shopping Malls. It’s going to spread like wildfire I think. |

Get on top of that issue and we will all be better off. implement what NSW have done. A couple of so called Vic health experts went up to NSW to learn about contact tracing about a month ago and have they leant or thrown the concept out the window. Don't know. Not one press conference on that subject. Peta Credlin grilled Dan on this not just that 6min call and the standard cold face answer. I will determine what's best for the state according to the science. Gosh that's good answer spin at it's best. If you open up do the obvious things (mask, space, sanitise etc) then tracing should keep cases <15. If not, then Dan has proved (in fact already proved) that lockdowns don't work. That's according to the latest information WHO released according to the science. |

For the last month though, deaths have all been age care, have they not. If that's the case then lockdown age care only and open the rest or

There is zero appetite for risk in this country anymore! We are doomed as a nation if we remain locked off to the rest of the world indefinitely. |

Your post #473 regarding mask wearing illustrates - "Come Thursday I think it means I'm going to have a criminal record." face that keep touching and placing in your pocket. Look at all those lovely facial expressions. Look at everyone just looking at the ground while walking. Let me guess, did I write something like this at post #473 without looking it up. A mentally drained mind really needs all the O2 it can get. II'I wear one not for good health, only because Dan says so. That's it. All the graphs that go up & down, up & down again for the last 9 months will happen wearing a mask or not. In fact they work like lockdowns. They will prolong the virus. Ventilation works better. "Am I ever gonna see your mask again. No way, get masked, mask off." |

Labor or Liberal diehards- who gives a fcvk right now? Let’s deal with COVID and pick the best leaders for the job.
If you could clone Gladys or Dan to run all the other states I know which one I would chose. Let the facts make your mind up not what political party somebody in your family decided to vote for & advised you to go the same way & never consider the alternative. |

McCoward’s house of cards is looking shakier by the day:

Agreed, the mistake of assuming broad support for hard borders will soon be revealed.
|
It backs up what many of us have suggested for a long time saying all states except Vic and NSW should have unrestricted travel between them. From the article...
“Premier Mark McGowan has been “caught out on his political decision” to keep WA’s border closed after his Chief Health Officer told a parliamentary inquiry the state could open to five of the other seven Australian jurisdictions.” :ugh: |
The WA legislation sounds different to QLD...
Regarding the QLD border - "The powers granted to the Chief Health Officer in a public health emergency are extensive." "Although the final decision is made by the Chief Health Officer, the Premier is able to contribute information that the State Government considers relevant." https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-10-...harge/12753776 So in the QLD context at least, measures taken are unlikely to change regardless of the government of the day. Given the calibre of our politicians, probably not a bad idea. |
So, yeah. You can now fly from UnZud to New South Wales, the Territory or South Australia, either direct, or via Sydney - and not have to undergo quarantine. Yet you cannot fly from anywhere in Australia to the Democratic Peoples Republic of Westralia without being forced to undergo 2 weeks mandatory - but completely voluntary remember! - detention at your own cost...
Yep, we're certainly living up to that concept of Federation alright! :mad: |
TAS will open to NSW 2nd November. As proven NSW has the best contact tracing team in the country if not the world its been proven with their quick actions on potential breakouts that’s undeniable.
QLD and WA will find it harder to keep their borders closed past November without having to answer for it now. November will certainty be an interesting month for those two states. Hopefully QLD people have woken up to Queen P and that idiot SM who has demonstrated he is actually a child and should not be in the job. |
So apparently now, any Qlders can drive as far south as feral Byron Bay without restriction(not sure why anyone would want to, except to get drugs) & apparently now anyone from NSW including SYD can drive to Byron Bay without restriction, so Qlders & those from SYD can mix at Byron, but they can't fly SYD/BNE/SYD or BNE/SYD/BNE without restrictions/quarantine.
Is this nuts ? |
Is this nuts ? With growing discontent in Queensland around the border closure, could we see a last minute pre election border announcement from Queen P as a cynical way to try win some more votes? |

To be honest I don’t want QLD ppl here, our testing is 3 times higher than theirs our contact tracing is ten fold Better than theirs and covid is running rampart in their sewage so one has to ask. Is QLD actually doing as good as they make out? The even scarier thing is that QLD ppl will vote Queen P and Idiot SM back in which well.....I’ll stop there.... |
Today is the day, lets see if Queen P and that idiot SM side kick of hers make a rational, science based announcement.
