There's very little point in contact tracing in the USA, where COVID is almost ubiquitous. Contact tracing is good when you have limited outbreaks, and you're trying to contain them. It's no use at all when the virus is literally everywhere.
Yet they’re still pumping money into it......$100k per month.
It is hard to believe the Premiers care. And by the way voters don't seem to care so the Premiers may just be smart, if cynical. They seem to assume that Federally funded programs Job(insert variant) will clean up any mess they create.
The Premiers definitely care. They're the ones who need to clean up the mess, when Bozo & co invariably shit the bed.
But nothing that comes within a million miles of Dan Andrews Victorian total balls ups luckily.
The UK has accelerated their vaccination program because there were hundreds of people dying each day, so they were prepared to pay a premium to get more of the vaccines early. Australia has the luxury of waiting without it costing lives, without having to pay to get more vaccines early, allowing the vaccine to go where it is needed most. Now we are manufacturing the AstraZeneca vaccine locally, the rollout will accelerate, hopefully we can all get it done by the end of the year.
Just thank your lucky stars you aren't/weren't living/working in Victoria, especially metropolitan Melbourne.
Spot on
Didn't the ALP implement tge Home Insulation Program?
He did say that... and rescinded it about 30 seconds later.
As a bloke who has spent the past year working in a hospital that has been ravaged by covid and now the local government has banned all in door eating, non essential travel, and all indoor gatherings I find it amazing hearing Australian news and people getting the shits about not being able to go to QLD for easter or Rowe harking on about how 75% capacity at Adelaide oval, like it is sort of authoritarian regime stomping down on the little bloke. Australia is in an amazing position and to nit pick now is to miss the point. I understand this is going to hurt the economy and some peoples livelihoods have been ruined. But you have avoided the storm, and this isnt solely because australia is an island it has happened because brilliant professionals have put their necks out. and the economy will bounce back much faster with out dead people and covid suffers being messed up for months and years after infection.
Here’s a worthy candidate mods.
