I’ve got no problem with kids who have applied for exemptions in particular cases.

I think that’s reasonable grounds for asking for an exemption, I have a few not-necessarily-medically-reasoned and the masked kids don’t even ask or make comments about it.

Today's my birthday too. We (as in Perth) were in lockdown for my birthday last year AND the year before, so to get this news on my birthday this year is pretty bloody awesome.
Well down WA. 79% boosted.

The boos will be at maximum volume at least.
Also the measures make sense as our numbers in hospitals and ICU appear stable and there have been no major COVID disruptions to supply chains and most public events. We've officially gone to living with it and using sensible measures as it becomes endemic.

Given that McGowan did not use his political exemption to visit parents in NSW during the entirety of the pandemic, and still served isolation anyway when he had to go interstate for the Palmer defamation case (even though the rules changed to no longer require isolation when he was away), you can never accuse him of being a hypocrite (unlike certain politicians, left or right) when following COVID rules.
Surely you'd give him credit for this one as well where he did not wait until his own recovery was complete before changing the rules.

Staffing is pretty difficult at the moment, for a start. I know of several schools struggling to replace teachers who have left for various reasons for Term 2 onwards. This stretches internal resources pretty thin and leads to burn out pretty fast. Reliefs are pretty hard to find also. The more we can do to stop any spread among schools and teachers, the better. Ultimately a lack of continuity hasn't been beneficial for students, and it's what we need to aim for as much as possible going forwards. Hopefully the worst has passed and this can be achieved, masks or no masks.
I know it can be contracted anywhere, but when you have 30 kids in a pretty small classroom with little understanding about personal space, it can feel a little like a ticking time bomb!

If you wanted to work as a relief teacher, at the moment you could have your pick of dozens of schools.
The new close contact rules will assist greatly in reducing the pressure, though. Seems like the government is counting on the worst of the wave to be over and thus absences at school to be manageable, eventually.

That is rough.
Just before the election the workplace ones will probably be gone tooProof of vaccination gone too.
Short memories etc
Not that short. Unemployed for months waving Pauline Hanson and Clive Palmer banners, clogging PerthNow, WAToday, Facebook, Twitter and this forum with their bullshit, suddenly going "You know what, I'm voting Labor now" because McLoWn will let them apply for jobs again? Nah.
