Missus was doing her fortnightly shopping online for delivery. She couldnt get our normal quota of pasta or lasagna sheets and a couple of other things as they were all sold out. So i went down and got the 2 packets of pasta she was after, shelves about a third full and dwindling and no lasagna sheets. I did scope the toilet paper and yep, down to about a third. Its happening again.

on a plus side, did get some nice short ribs to smoke on the weekend

So we have about 245 active cases in Australia as of yesterday, 141 of them were in Vic
Last time Vic had this many active cases was back in the middle of April.

We are still nowhere near our peak of 621 from the end of March though

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Yep you are correct, it's on the south side of Pakky near Heritage Springs, One friggin family that does not get the concept of isolating

These people need to be locked up

Im guessing the graphs will make a comeback now - they were more contagious than the virus back in March and April

It would be really interesting to know how many of these new cases are ‘sick’. I mean a lot of people are being tested and showing positive just because they would be classified a close contact of a confirmed case, and otherwise may not have been tested. The breakdown between symptomatic and asymptomatic cases would be really interesting.

We have 16 in hospital and just 2 people in intensive case which is staggeringly low when you think about it.

Not sure which graphs you are talking about? The flatten the curve one?

 

[SportsCentre]

Expect when DHHS update their count today we will be sitting somewhere around 160-170 active cases

Should be 174, before recoveries are counted for today.
20 new cases yesterday, but with 9 recoveries, rise of 11.

Most of them were from international arrivals werent they? these are transmissions of some sort - i find if funny how they try and distinguish what is a 'good' transmission and what is a 'scary' transmission.

Yet we will open up restrictions further

This is what really confuses me about this virus

All these sports stars in the US who are being tested and are positive seem to be fine and asymptomatic.

And hear in Oz there doesn’t seem to be many people on there death bed cos of it, most are home isolating

Is this actually as bad as they making it out to be?

You can understand why so many people don’t give a **** anymore cos the information makes no sense we are getting

 

[Over The Post]

England have got the social distancing thing down pat.

NEWS: There's concern about social distancing as thousands flocked to the coast on the hottest day of the year so far. This was the scene at Bournemouth earlier..

Months and months of 'you can have it and not know' turns into 'boy who cried wolf'. Even the total cases, who gives a heck. How many are in hospital? Not many.

"oh no cases are going up. Stay inside". Stop testing then, cases will go down. Will you be happy then? Too many dumb people applying zero logic putting their 2 bob in.

Yep you are correct, it's on the south side of Pakky near Heritage Springs, One friggin family that does not get the concept of isolating

Given the nature of Pakenham it's somewhat plausible they've not passed it on to anyone else in the area.
5 could very well just be the family.

Problem is mum had it, 2 elder kids got infected and shut down the primary school, then sent her youngest to child care AFTER the positive diagnosis took out the worker. Along the way she took out her doctor on Main St, and that's the 1,2,3,4,5 cases.

I know personally I never go down that way so I'm not worried, heck I've been out of shire boundaries once since March. I'm lucky I can work 100% from home unlike Mrs Slabs who's an aged care worker.

Yeah so true. I wonder if it is a similar situation with say influenza? As in a lot of people would have it without even knowing, maybe feeling off for a few days. I had influenza back as an 18 year old and it was shithouse, rocked me for 3 weeks so I do understand that this could be bad.. but every sports star we've seen has been okay by all reports? Does anyone know somebody whose had it?

It's a fair question but if you get it and are fine, you could still pass it on to someone who could die from it.

Talk about reckless.

My best mate and his family live down there but on the north side of Pakenham. He's an essential worker to boot.


It is just me or is a lot more politics are starting to happen around this virus?

 

[craigos]

Absolutely, just look at the Victorian opposition leader. Has flipped sides about ten times. It's so see through but those sound bites make the news.

Nsw 5 active cases
But 8 in hospital

ah yes the reclassification that they did today.

Only people who got it in the last 4 weeks who aren't in hotel quarantine are now classed as active cases in their daily updates

The state by state table says NSW are basically now only counting locally acquired cases.
When is coronavirus not coronavirus? When it's been on holidays?
No wonder people are starting to doubt the released numbers

If you believe today's figures, there are 151 cases in Australia, and Victoria has 142 of them.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Even the states are starting to play politics. Instead of the whole "We're in it together" it's become "You're on your own"

It's like everyone trying to one up everyone else.

 

[SportsCentre]

We're all in this together.... except you Victoria, f**k you Victoria.

Net result of +22 for Victoria today, 33 cases - 11 recoveries

 

[Caesar]

Tell you what NZ provides a lot more data then we do.

It’s a trade-off. Australia has chosen to provide more granular location data than NZ. As a result they have to limit a lot of other personal information, to prevent patients being identified.

Personally I prefer the Australian approach. In terms of avoiding infection is more useful for me to know that there are three cases in my postcode, than to know the age/sex/transmission source of all cases in my city.
