Health Coronavirus 2020 / Worldwide (Stats live update in OP) Part 6

[faible]

I'm at about the 20 hour mark now. Still no adverse effects yet...

If you live to hour 36 I believe you morph in to a bat.

[Catfish Alley]

Does she have to show vax passport or quarantine in either direction ?

No vax passport or quarantine. Just a negative test that was done within 3 days of travel.

Sounds like that the time people in NSW are unlocked and vaccinated enough to go visit WA, WA will be locked down.

Might have to wait until this time next year for WA to be unlocked enough to be allowed in

Getting tested is proper rubbish. Line up for a couple of hours, get orally assaulted and then sit at home staring out the window waiting for a text.

I hope negative tests aren't going to be something that's required in the workforce going forward.

Easy for them to say on the basis that they have had little impact lockdown wise by comparison to other states.

As in, their tolerance threshold would be much higher for now

Why would they be if the vaccines work?

Why would they be if the vaccines work?

Probably the same reason some business require a certificate for a single day taken on a Monday or Friday. To make people come to work sick, like the good old days.

I ****ing hate that, especially because around where I live the chances of getting a doctors appointment the day you decide you need it is basically zero
Like its usually a 2-3 day wait minimum

So interesting development re Indigenous vaccination rates in Victoria

Turns out that the extremely high rates were incorrect reporting from some of the software used to track the data

According to the Government if the question regarding whether the vaccine recipient was Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander wasn't answered it defaulted to yes for reporting instead of no

So, Dan's taking on construction 5 weeks in to a lockdown. He's the master of shifting blame, he should've closed construction like Jacinda did and we might even had a chance.

 

[Gralin]

So it's looking like most of the LGAs of concern are turning the corner in Sydney but the rest of the LGAs are trending up.

So the areas with less restrictions and more freedoms as of yesterday have been slowly climbing but are being treated like that isn't an issue

The next two weeks in Sydney are going to be interesting

Meanwhile we are looking like exponential growth in VIC is still happening, our 7 day average is up to 377

Aren't you in favour of no lockdowns at all?

 

[Chief]

You look at the Sydney numbers, they are exponential for both LGAs.

There's a meme somewhere that shows people looking at low absolute numerical increases and not being concerned - even though they are exponential - and then freaking out at big numerical increases, suddenly realising that the cases are growing exponentially.

 

[Deliverance]

If we'd listened to me last year, we'd be nearly restriction free now.
But this is 2021., that ship sailed. We were obviously committed to elimination in Victoria. After nearly two years of this, why wouldn't a premier shut borders as tight as possible and do a lockdown instead of a mockdown? Unions I'm guessing.

And yet people trust the government with the power to use this data for vax passports and actually want it to happen. They can't even get the absolute basics right with anything ffs. Takes a real nuffy to cheer on what has been the last few months but when you look at who's cheering it all, 'nuffy' is the nicest thing that could be said about them

Yeah



Then you have the rest of Sydney


Some of those look ready to explode

The Government would know this but they are giving people in those LGA's more freedom than the top group, it's so clear that they treat Western Sydney differently

I mean this is the people administering the vaccine not ticking a box on a form meaning they didn't ask the question or forgot to record the answer

Yep. The absolute bare minimum for accuracy cannot be trusted in the public service

That is just one hurdle as to why these beloved vax passports will be a major cluster **** and will never work

 

[faible]

Was it entered by the person or at time of booking? I'm pretty sure the booking website asks you if you're Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, not sure if it forces you to select one or the other to progress, or if it defaults a selection that you then need to change

Good to hear, getting my second jab Friday morning and supposed to be going out Friday night. In hindsight, should have booked it with a work day following to get some time off.

Why would a question regarding minority status default to yes when no answer is supplied?

Coding error?

 

[davemc_lions]

Coding error?

be coded in a country that does not know what a "Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander " is

Man in 20s dies with Covid at home

A Victorian man aged in his 20s has died with Covid-19 at home.

Is this the result of people not wanting to get tested?
