Caronavirus - COVID 19

[one-eyed]

VIC - 80 new cases today (18 in Shepparton). 67 are linked. 13 under investigation. 39 in isolation. 41 out in the community during their infectious period. 36 in hospital, 11 in ICU (8 on ventilators).

        We still have selfish idiots knowingly with covid symptoms not getting tested for up to 8 days  .


NSW - 1,029 (another national record). 94 in the community for all or part of their infectious period. 844 under investigation. 698 in hospital. 116 in ICU (43 on ventilators). 3 more deaths including a man in his 30s.

The only thing that Sutton can say is that its better than the alternative . He really should choose his words carefully or step aside.

I understand your point Frankie. As someone who has been to incredibly dark places because of these lockdowns I really understand your point.

But the above article is another reason I watch the pressers. That article quotes only part of the answer he gave  which has been used to highlight what the other Doctor's point is, to strengthen their case if you like. I understand why the media do it but it doesn't make it a balanced article.

you are not alone, many more just like you. Hopefully it turns around for you.

regarding the article, i can safely say its more balanced than a display of naplan results  Mental health or family issues exasperated or caused by lockdowns doesn't care how high your IQ is.

we also know there are still those who dont come forward.

Got my second last week . No side effects with either 1 or 2 jabs . My astra line had two and a dingbat in it the Pfizer line had an MCG crowd in it lol

I see Andrews has abandoned his dick  measuring contest and looks likely to follow Gladys lead to open up.

Smartest thing he has said in this whole thing.

Probably realising there is another crisis going on, unlike the other premiers. Yet.

[1965]

Doubt that Gladys will see the year out.

[Francois Jackson]

Who cares? What I care about now is this state and peoples lives returning to normal.

Andrews has realised that 200 days of lockdown is causing more harm.

Finally, he may be realising we actually have to jab and live with this China virus.

[1965]

You were the one that mentioned Gladys.
