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

[FRUMPY]

Yes, I think we will see restrictions eased by this time next week at worst.

10kms?

 

[craigos]

Are people going to post their flu jabs on social media next year?

Pfizer crew checking in #blessed

 

[Over The Post]

I'm a little concerned that my official government vaccination certificate shows a flu vax I had a couple of years ago, but not the current one matching the certificate I have in my wallet.

Concerned, but not the least surprised.

 

[Hornberger]

Don't put words in my mouth. I specifically said "forecast". Do you know the difference?

I do, but it appears you don't. A forecast can predict a range of a results. Some of the predicted outcomes results in the lock down ending after 5 days, some don't.

When they say the lock down is for 5 days, it doesn't mean it will end after 5 days, it means that they will re-assess the situation in 5 days and make a new decision based on the information available at that time.

Yet you claimed that I asked them to predict the future which would mean the exact time and date coming out of lockdown and then give me a definition of a forecast.

You criticism are essentially that the public health experts cannot accurately predict in advance when the lock down will end. You are in fact saying that the should be predicting the future.

AFL should stop being so stubborn and just pause for 2 weeks as they can play into October as last year proved and if need be they remove that stupid pre finals bye.

but but but we (AFL) are doing it for everyones mental health. (not $$$$)

Gee I am now told not only to lockdown but what I am saying. Good times we live in.

If you can not understand my criticism of a group of professionals with the sole purpose in life in providing an accurate forecast on how long a lockdown should last, well, that's on you.

Nothing has significantly changed since the lockdown was announced to change their original forecast of 5 days to whatever it ends up being. So either the 5 days was a gross underestimation in the modelling or there was a forecasted longer lockdown that was not communicated to the public.

NSW

You must not allow a person to visit your home, except if it is

• for permitted work
• for childcare
• to give effect to arrangements between parents and children under 18 or their siblings
• to assist a person to move places of residence

Yes, you very clearly don't know what you saying. You are upset with people for not knowing what is unknowable.

Western Sydney are going to push back a lot I reckon. They're going to feel marginalised and singled out and I can't see them obeying restrictions for long and lining up for hours to get tested.

Bondi yesterday, what a nerve given it originated with the Bondi cluster.

 

[Connoisseur]

They were exempt workers who lied and didn't follow protocols. They are squarly to blame

I'd apportion about 10% of the blame and 90% on Disaster given that they were coming from a known red hotspot with cases rising fast. Palachook and McClown got it right and did not allow another wave of covid to start up again in their respective states, needing possibly weeks to get it under the control again.The likelihood that these individuals were carrying the virus was high and other arrangements should have been made to get the customer's belongings to Melbourne or the job canceled altogether for the time being until the situation improved in Sydney. The livelihood of millions of people trumps the inconvenience of one.

I reckon there would be many things in your world that would be unknowable.

If that were Victoria, the cops would be out there busting heads.

ABC reporting another death in NSW as a family member of the removalists.

 

[craigos]

NSW still trending upwards with the amount of new cases infectious in the community. Journalists are either dumb or deliberately lapping up the "spin" of the NSW figures.

 

[Mofra]

Didn't they lie about their origins? On top of being a pain in the arse to deal with for the contact tracers. Then they kept going after they first had symptoms. And went into stores instead of using drive thoughs. And refused to wear masks.
Governments can't control individuals doing the wrong thing to the nth degree.

ABC reporting another death in NSW as a family member of the removalists.

Update, she was in her 50s and was found dead in her home.

 

[Chief]

Are people going to post their flu jabs on social media next year?

Given the number of people who don't seem to know that we should all get them each year from 6 months of age, yes that is a good idea.

 

[Hornberger]

Like the future for one.

Nice low shot to make it seem more crowded than it actually is, why don't these drama queens show the view from above.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Pitty it wasn't 2019 it could have been the 'Toyota Covid 19 Finals Series'

The Tiges still would've cub-stomped the Giant's though

Gee how have people lived beyond 6 months without?!

Hope it wasn't anything sinister. Being named and shamed in the media put some serious pressure on families, especially when they may or may not have been misrepresented.
