AusPost not accepting parcels for 5 days to clear their backlog due to Covid-19. Don't they understand people are going to keep buying stuff during those 5 days?

On the flip side, DHL 5 days from Germany to me, Auspost 14 days and counting from Dromana to me...

our lunchtime Australia Post freight pickup didn't show on Wednesday last week, so I call them at 1.30pm.

"we've had an *outbreak* at the Nepean mail centre... no pick ups until Tuesday."

(and then the driver rocked up as usual on Friday)

Going by the pictures on the idiot box of last nights celebrations in Penrith,
It doesn't look like it can be good.

Australia Post general manager of corporate affairs, Michelle Skehan, told the morning radio program that the picture from the distribution centre "looks a little bit terrifying", as online shopping booms in Victoria. "It is very orderly and they are massive facilities, but look, it's not a great situation we've found ourselves in,"

I think Shitney will be ok, they don't do sport up here like back home in Victoria, not even close.

As the NSW numbers continue to fall.   The Stay at Home restrictions seem to have worked as opposed to the hard lock down that some people were demanding in NSW.   No to get rid of all the restrictions and open the State back up again.

interesting if its true.

Wuhan high school classes shut over mystery virus as early as November 2019
In early November 2019, Wuhan doctor Wang Lei was treating patients in the city as a mysterious illness began to take hold.

While medics soon realised they were facing a new coronavirus, they were forbidden from speaking out about it, with Covid-19 only officially being declared a pandemic months later, in March 2020.

But according to Dr Wang, there was a chilling sign the city was not facing an ordinary flu back in that first month.

In Sharri Markson's explosive new book, What Really Happened in Wuhan, Dr Wang – whose name has been changed for his own protection – told the Sky News reporter a flu alert was sent to doctors in November warning them of a severe influenza.

But already there were clues this was something far worse, with some high school classes also shutting down in early November – something which would never happen over a mere flu outbreak.
