I look up Worldometer each morning. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

They clock up on average lately 20k new cases a day and around 2k deaths....

It's like an experiment we are about to watch when they open it all up 'just because Trumps had enough' and has an election to win....

I'm sure he's going for the 'Wuhan Lab' virus leak approach so he can rally the troops... (Republican voters down South....).

He's going for the 'they didn't die of Covid' lie I reckon.
Even though the US are only giving the numbers of those who died in hospital out (not those that die at home).

Yep, as I posted above fox news are already pushing hard on the numbers angle (they would have died anyway, it's pneumonia, etc). More and more research is showing that the death tolls are actually an underestimate but no... Orange man will push the lie
 
Spurrier

1 new case = 439 cases

Male in 70's diagnosed as come from O'S. 20th March landed in Adelaide but not infectious. Self quarantined and on 24th May lost sense of smell and taste. Didn't message public to get tested if had these symptoms so he didn't. But in 2 week blitz there was messaging about it, so he went and got tested on the 5th May.

Immigrated to Oz to be with family, doesn't know many people, only has 5 close contacts and all gone into quarantine and none positive.

Sprurrier asks Why did he test positive 6 weeks later? For some reason covid can be active for long time. China study shows day 8 they still grew and cultured the virus. Can't do that in SA.

Treating him like infectious to quarantine people around him but believe risk is very low.

Gentleman has come from UK and pretty sure that's where he contracted the disease.

The English still screwing us ;)
 
Spurrier taking questions

Said 1 of 2 active cases from yesterday has recovered + todays cases means still 2 active cases.

There are 2 people who have recovered from Covid but are still in hospital, recovering from general health effects of treatment rather than covid specifically.
 
Assume that May 24th date is April 24th.

So why did we let a non-resident in on March 20th? Just slipped through I guess.

Mar 13: PM advises ban on non-essential outdoor gatherings of more than 500 people from March 16. Overseas arrivals required to self-isolate for 14 days. Australians urged not to travel overseas.

Mar 18: Non-essential indoor gatherings of more than 100 people banned. Australians abroad advised to book commercial flights as soon as possible.

Mar 19: Australia announces its borders will close to all but citizens and residents. Ruby Princess docks and 2,700 passengers disembark in Sydney. The following day, three are confirmed to have tested positive to COVID-19.

Mar 24: Australians encouraged to work from home. Non-essential businesses ordered to close from March 25. Australians banned from travelling overseas. NT, Queensland, WA and SA enforce border controls.

Mar 29: Most indoor and outdoor gatherings limited to two people. Australians returning from overseas required to spend 14 days in quarantine in a hotel.

You realise the leaders are simply using the experts to avoid decision making right? They will continue to point to the "experts" so that they can avoid any accountability down the road.

Tell me, what do they do if/when it comes back? They defer again and everything will get shut down for 1 new case which is not feasible. This is why the goal posts shifted and continue to shift.

Experts advise. Politicians decide.
 
Quarantining people without requiring that they be tested is pointless. If you're being forced into quarantine, you should be forced to be tested before you can leave, symptoms or no symptoms.

DHS wouldn't be advising this. Anyone going into quarantine is to be tested atleast once or twice if been in contact with a confirmed positive for 14 days.

From my reading he had immigrated to Australia therefore he was an Australian resident and not a visitor. The article below reads he was returning to Australia.


It is disappointing that we chalked up a positive after two weeks of clean sheets. At least it is not a community based infection and appears to have been contracted overseas. When I first heard I thought we may have had a Mary Mallon (aka Typhoid Mary) in our midst.
