+x+x+x+x+x+xI trust the experts and scientific consensus more than random conspiracy theorists on the internet And nothing I can say to you is going to change 6,000 years of consistent human nature of the bulk of the masses. This isn't the first time you have mentioned humans and "6,000 years"... I can't say I'm surprised This and the garbage you have dragged from the archives sheds a whole lot of light on this clown. It's a fair bet, based on that, that he's a young earth creationist and, seeing most of the adherents are religious zealots, a flat earther too. Calling him a massive cockhead was way too generous. See my above post. Caught red handed again. Not that it will change a thing. Saw yours. Keep up the good work. BTW. Jesus Christ, no pun intended, that religion thread is wild. (And I only tipped my toe in slightly.) He's a full on nutjob. Had a peek. No thanks.

+x+x+x+x+x+x+xI know of at least five people who have covid (positive on a rapid test), but not bothering to have a proper test as too hard and waiting time too long. They just going to ride it out.
All the LNPs plan to drive official stats down. I don't know if that's neccasarily a bad thing if they only have mild to moderate symptoms and are self isolating once getting the result. It means they are putting zero strain on the system with testing, contact tracing and all the follow ups etc. Testing is not putting strain on the hospital system. It’s different resources. People having covid should be tested, it was the moronic politicians that demanded them before flights.
Look, I don’t have a problem with kits if they were supplied by govt, not when it’s a massive war like profiteering scam for liberal party donors.
I read an article that there were 1000 health workers in isolation. Out of action at a critical time 200 were infected, 800 fell under the mathematical direction to isolate. Those 800 people also now have to line up for miles waiting hours for testing while car load after car load of healthy people follow the same checklist Not only but but there will be supply issues with rapid tests just like toilet paper. And the cost involved means there will be invested interest in forcing tests There is no sense trying to test and trace around 35000 daily cases simply because thats what we decided to do in 2020. Australia needs an adaptable model Testing kits should be sent to front line workers and aged care facilities so we can set up a rapid testing structure in the places it matters most. Every testing kit in the hands of the general public checking to see if they are still OK after buying a bag of oranges is a waste of resources The 1000 health workers were given an exemption and ordered back to work on 31 December by the Health Minister. I think the government is currently paying around $85 for a PCR test. If they switched to paying for RAT, it would be much cheaper (they cost around $2 retail in Europe) and we can manufacture them in Australia. The NSW Government has also committed to delivering 50m RATs for free by the end of January like the UK model, not what was decided in 2020 - https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/dec/31/covid-rapid-antigen-tests-suppliers-deny-pressing-pm-to-abandon-commitment-to-provide-free-kits Here are also NSW guidelines on when to use a RAT (it's not for buying a bag of oranges) - https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/stay-safe/testing/how-testing-works/rapid-antigen-self-tests-for-communityHealth workers should probably get direct access to the more reliable PCR as well (they do get expedited results). My oranges example wasn't valid due to the food shortages in NSW as a result of too many people being forced into isolation at the same time. A lesson people should have learnt from Shepparton 25k cases, and 4-5 close contacts each, thats 100k-125k new people being isolated for a week every day. Its not the hospital system thats going to break first (did read an article today saying 50% of hospitalisations in NSW were people there for a different reason, but with Covid). Dont forget also, there is no definition about people who have previously had Covid. So the likelihood is people are going to have to isolate 4 or 5 times As I said, testing and tracing is going to destroy Australia. 50m kits might sound like a lot but thats on 5 per person in NSW for a 12 month requirement Imagine if those kits were sent to aged care homes and nobody is allowed to enter without taking a rapid test in the reception area. I'm not saying I have thought the idea through enough to be raising it as a legit idea, but the gist of it is the success of our Covid fight is going to come down to how our scarce resources are allocated. Who gets the testing, who should be hospitalised, who should be locked away for 7 days The general public response should be self isolation if sick, and management of how they conduct themselves. Everything else is just a waste of resources and an unnecessary burden on society we've been having federally funded PCR tests at $85 each, yet we can't afford a $2 test? I find it interesting that you're position is that the general public response should be self isolation if sick. But there is currently no way to find out if your sick or not. You still need resources for people to find out if they are sick or not. Point 1: The difference is 125,000 mandatory tests a day for NSW alone, and on current figures. There is no part of it that is practical or realistic. The system has broken Point 2: Its about treating this like any other flu. How do people know when they have the flu? They monitor their health and use their vocal structure to emit sounds that convey a message that they are unwell. People and work places manage their own sickness and there are strategies in place (like paid sick leave). Who pays for 4 - 5 weeks absence for every worker because they fit a mathematical definition? I'm not saying people can't voluntarily get tested but its about distribution of testing kits so that the demand meets the distribution. Its also about directive. If the health directive is for the general public to manage their own, then demand will shift as the public attitude does Opening up after high vaccination numbers meant throwing away the old toolset and simply managing the front line. Look at how we compare to similar countries: . Canada 25k cases 37 deaths . Australia 47k cases 4 deaths. Greece 50k cases 63 deaths . Turkey 54k cases 137 deaths We knew a high vaccination rate was going to make a substantial difference. But yeah, lets look at other countries around the world and see what restrictions they have in place that we could be following

Not sure if I believe the half arses stats from government considering those hospitalisation numbers were there for other issues and not focus
I'd hazard a guess the number of fit healthy people under 30 that are in ICU would be zero.

Got my Moderna today.at 11am. 4 months following the 2 AZ's I got. No issues thus far. So good to see Qld numbers exploding and them struggling to keep up like NSW and VIC have been doing for months. Not so smug now are we Anna?

I think half of Adelaide is in isolation right now.
I work on a very busy inner suburbs street and there is not a single car parked and I'm the only person in my building.
It's really eerie.
The isolation rules in SA are so bizarre now. If you are a close contact in a house with 1 bathroom you isolate for 14 days.
If you get covid you isolate for 10 days.
I understand that you can contract covid from the close contact late in the isolation period but this is NOT living with covid.
We all got vaccinated, we knew cases would start when the borders opened, we have had 2 years to plan and NOW we are crippling the state worse than ever.
The streets are quieter than when we were in lockdown
Again, THIS IS NOT LIVING WITH COVID

So obviously Covid is running rampant now in NSW. 36000+ cases and that's only the people who can manage to get tested. (Probably triple that.) Getting pings (as well as all my family) on the services app every day now for possible exposures but it says monitor symptoms and don't get tested. The eldest son this morning is feeling ordinary, takes a rapid test. Positive. Fortunately got the Moderna yesterday as my booster (no adverse reactions as yet) but it probably takes a few days to stimulate the immune system so fingers crossed there. Anyway locked and loaded now and will just have to sit it out. To be honest, providing I get a mild version, I'd rather just get it and get it out of the way. There's absolutely no stopping it anymore.

Particularly galling because NSW were receiving over 80% of all returning Australians. Am really enjoying Qld's struggles in particular. Also (judging by your post) all those restrictions that we had for months which were nonsensical and academic to those states without covid have now had a short smack upside the head with a reality check about how dumb some of them are.

+xI think half of Adelaide is in isolation right now. I work on a very busy inner suburbs street and there is not a single car parked and I'm the only person in my building. It's really eerie. The isolation rules in SA are so bizarre now. If you are a close contact in a house with 1 bathroom you isolate for 14 days. If you get covid you isolate for 10 days. I understand that you can contract covid from the close contact late in the isolation period but this is NOT living with covid. We all got vaccinated, we knew cases would start when the borders opened, we have had 2 years to plan and NOW we are crippling the state worse than ever. The streets are quieter than when we were in lockdown Again, THIS IS NOT LIVING WITH COVID This is kinda the point I was making on page 108 Australia hasn't had its pandemic yet and it begins now. I remember Marshall was so confident SA were ready to open up and it wouldnt be a problem because vaccination numbers were high. And he was right. The only part he got wrong was whether or not he would overreact. I also find it funny that he wont adopt the national definition of a contact, but decides face mask or no face mask can determine whether somebody should need to isolate (or pretending they wore one as most people will do to avoid the 15 minute rule) Victoria have re-introduced restrictions today, same as NSW not long ago. And expect QLD to follow suit The funny thing is the states are perfectly 1-2 weeks behind one another (with WA 1 year behind as always) so there is an opportunity to learn from the state ahead case wise. But its the exact same fucking mistakes time and time again from states that dont want to let go of the restriction security blanket due to projected Excel data sitting in hospital. And from states that dont want to learn from anybody that isnt them 2022 will be worse than 2021 and this wont be over in 2022. But the good news is we wont be calling it a lockdown because they are over

Not just looking at other states, you need to look at other countries. Go to Google, type in -- Covid followed by the name of the country, and see the Covid graph for each country, particularly the high vax countries -- Australia, Israel, Iceland, Portugal, 100%-vaxed Gibraltar. All spiking with Covid Omicron. Also, coming soon: “Germany: Double Vaccinated No Longer Allowed into Restaurants Without Taking Tests – Only Triple Vaxxed Allowed Inside” https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/germany-double-vaccinated-no-longer-allowed-restaurants-without-taking-tests-triple-vaxxed-allowed-inside/And it won't stop there, given that the 3rd booster wanes after 10 weeks: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10347407/So-Covid-chaos-end-Booster-vaccine-immunity-weakens-just-10-WEEKS.html If you'd like know some health remedies proposed by the FLCCC, let me know, and I'll be glad to share. It's just that I'm not sure how open you are to things that can naturally improve your health and build up your defence against Covid.

its good to see that the Northern Territory is now following my advice and locking down the unvaccinated. How long have I been telling you this was the only solution...this is best practice in Europe. Expect other states to follow. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-01-06/nt-covid-numbers-michael-gunner/100741026

Everyone is pissed off with him. 1- You have the ones that never wanted to open up in the first place pissed off coz we have cases now. 2- You have the ones that wanted to open up coz we all did everything we were asked in order to remove restriction (like me) pissed off coz he has backtracked. I don't see how he can survive an election I really don't. He did the worst of both worlds. Opened up then got scared. Pathetic leader kowtowing to a public servant pediatrician who clearly LOVES the attention.
