How to cope with the corona virus ..facts- not fiction.

I would not say that about the Queensland Opposition.

Opposition......what Opposition ? 😂😂😂😂
They're too busy shooting themselves in the foot in the lead up to another election.

I think our leader has done a good job.  Sick and tired of the same old ranting bullShit from whoever is in opposition..  The amount of scandals from council to federal govt just proves that the vast majority are only in it for themselves..

And during this pandemic, even the opposition in each state has generally kept their mouths shut, which points to a united front from all sides of politics and an admission that they probably couldn't do better, or they can't see a need to "bash" whoever is in power.

When this is all over, don't worry, it'll be on for young and old....the blame game for political points ....but they all realise this isn't the time.

The level of control shown by all sides of politics during this crisis has been very impressive.
I think they are all acutely aware that the public will not tolerate any sniff of cheap point scoring at this moment in time.

But even with the unified effort of avoiding public mud slinging, the typical deflection of blame and shirking of responsibility is still as strong as ever...

Northern Territory may not reopen to Melbourne and Sydney for 18 months
By Mary Ward

The Northern Territory's tourism ads might still be playing on your TV, but Chief Minister Michael Gunner has said people from large cities with coronavirus outbreaks such as Melbourne and Sydney may not be able to visit for 18 months.

Speaking on ABC television about his territory's border controls, which forces permitted arrivals from "hotspot areas" to complete 14 days of paid quarantine before being allowed to visit, Mr Gunner said his government was "much more likely to add spots than remove them".

"We have got an indefinite ban on Victoria, and Sydney keeps bubbling away to a point to I can't give you a date where that would ever lift," he said.

I was lucky enough to get to listen to a Epidemiologist give a presentation about COVID and this is a snippet

I always thought COVID was a respiratory disease which is wrong. It's actually a Vascular disease which courses problems with your blood vessels and most common is the blood vessels in your lungs which is why patients have trouble breathing.

A recent study of Australians who have had COVID - 3 months after being given the all clear  80% people who were hospitalized and 10% who weren't hospitalized are still experiencing symptoms of fatigue, chest discomfort, shortness of breath and Brain fog. They predict for some, these symptoms may be permanent.

When they do find a Vaccine, it might take years for the drug companies to make enough for the whole world to use.

I have a feeling we will continue to feel the flow on effect of this for many years even if they do find a Vaccine.
