IT isnt going away quick.. lets hope the 'relaxing' of regs isnt too soon


'Biggest daily increase in coronavirus cases triggers WHO concern
The global health body says 106,000 new cases of coronavirus were confirmed in 24 hours - the most in a single day since the outbreak began.'

"Tourist accommodation such as caravan parks and camping grounds can open, but there can be no use of communal facilities such as kitchens and bathrooms."

So that means piles of Shit and Shit tickets everywhere out in the bush

Actually......

the Ruby Princess directly and indirectly has been linked to 11 deaths in Tasmania.

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/apr/30/tasmania-coronavirus-outbreak-traced-to-two-ruby-princess-passengers

And as of a few weeks ago, 22 directly nationally, ...

https://www.smh.com.au/national/australia-covid-19-death-toll-reaches-100-20200519-p54uhb.html
Yeah just over 10% of all cases in Australia can be traced back to NSW incompetence. ;)

Would type more, but Gladys will be on the telly soon and I need to make sure I know what advise she has for how the rest of the country should be run today. Ya know, after doing such a great job of leading be example and all that... ;D ;D

interesting listening to teacher while Beks at home schooing

The local bus company isnt going to let more than 20 people (students or adults) on buses at 1 time... they are also not going to run extra buses to help with all this... so more parents will be driving drop off zones will be chaos etc..

Talking to our team in India- They are in deep Shit over there.
The team are in lockdown still (few months now) - but its still spreading like wildfire.

'our state Maharashtra having more then no of cases compared to Wuhan '

I asked if they were in lockdown, and he said
'Some labs have been released slowly back to work at 8 lab is started but IT are working from home but infection is spreading like any thing every day count is increasing..'

I hope people stop pushing for travel and borders to be opened... it wouldnt take much to turn to Shit ...

edit: then you see the headline - 'Melbourne Black Lives Matter protest attendee contracts COVID-19 '.., ****tards

Yep if it turns out the protests caused it to spread, and anyone dies as a result, all the organisers should all be charged with manslaughter. My mates mum died a few weeks back, only 20 were allowed to attend her funeral, he rightly got pissed off that her funeral was substantially limited but then all these clowns are out marching on mass. I think it has a reasonable probability of spectacularly backfiring on those who organised it and it actually causing damage by getting more people offside than on. 

Edit, just saw some of the FB comments on the news article, I think the reasonable probability is a big understatement.

Another 8 cases in Mexico Victoria.  Very surprised that someone from the protests on the weekend tested positive.  NOT.   How dumb are some people. Leave the borders as they are.  Why the hell would you open them ?  We have also been warned that if we get a second wave we would be in dire straits economy wise.  Even now the  worlds economic outlook isn't real flash.

Mates wife died 3 weeks ago - 47yrs old... same thing with limited numbers. The funeral was videoed and put on stalkerbook..  Another mate said there were ~20 there spread around the church.
Got another friend in the last weeks of life, ~45yrs old, what a horrible way to spend your last weeks on this rock but locked away from anything and everything incase you catch it.

Yup, does suck. Had to fair well my father in law 2 mths ago. Only the immediate family and partners could go. Even the grandkids had to stay home. Was streamed on the internet to hundreds which in hindsight was good for his family overseas who may not have got to see it had we not been forced to due to covid restrictions.

Has been hard on the family and we were so stoked to be able to all catch up last weekend for the first time now that we can have more people over.

I saw a twitter thread from a guy that was claiming he was a professional activist and communicator. His job was to get the message out. Interestingly he didn't claim affiliation with any particular groups. I'd like to see his tax returns. 😂😂😂

The whole thing is a joke, There would have been much more public support if the decision was made in lines of what we all did during ANZAC day. If it was asked for anyone in support of the cause to put something in their windows or on their letterboxes in show of support, and waited until a more suitable time for protesting I am sure the large majority of the nation might have listened to this cause. But buy putting everything the country has already achieved at risk is just BS

Just heard on radio SA border opening July 20, and now 10,000 at sporting events - the important Shit..
Wonder how much pressure sporting organizations are reallly laying on Gov Co - and then Gov Co bends over.

Also overseas students allowed to return - GENIUS :'(

I'm with you. But at least they will have to quarantine for 2 weeks ! The students may help the universities bottom line, but they don't do much for the economy. I say forget 2020 and let them in for next years school terms.

Some interesting comparisons from over the ditch.
Apparently the Kiwis got a bit cranky with others around the world saying it was easy for them to beat the virus because they're just a small little island.

Maybe it's not really that small after all;




And perhaps their strategy was just a little bit better then some other countries;

Where's the data from?

Just a comparison spreadsheet that an aggravated Kiwi put together using today's available corona data (15/06/20).

Edit;
They seem to match the official government figures.

Not disputing the figures but it would be a bit more factual if we had the map of NZ overlaid on Colorado if that is the basis of the comparison. Currently NZi is overlaid Germany and France which both have a huge population.
