COVID-19 Round 13 - IT'S NOT A RACE!

Just planning a road trip to Brisbane in 2023. Pretty short timeframe so we have to take the direct route.

It’s actually one person who is all the accounts.

Just one persons thoughts on GameDay fighting themselves.

Voting for chicken then cheese twisties.

The vaccination rates in SW Sydney are certainly a worry. I do wonder, as horrible as it is, as this virus spreads and people see the impact of covid on people they know, whether we’ll see a change in uptake and attitude. People have been living blissfully unaware for the most part.

I did see that Kerry Chant suggested they reduce the gap between Pfizer doses to 6 weeks, which would mean you could have people fully vaccinated much quicker. Still have the issue of getting the extra supply, and people to actually get appointments and vaxxed.

Even the first dose of Pfizer can start having a (albeit smaller) effect within 10-12 days. Very targeted additional roll out to essential workers in SW Sydney is still clearly something they see as worth proceeding with given the January type risk we seem to be facing in a worse case scenario.

Geez all that on a Harley Chopper

But cases have not doubled in a week.
It’s a very tricky virus.

Hope you have a very good 4WD :rofl:

Time between doses is 3 weeks in most cases.

What happened with the NRL? And why does Jeannette Young say she’s close to booting the league out of Queensland

The NRL’s latest alleged biosecurity breach has placed the competition in immediate danger, with Queensland’s Chief Medical Officer Jeannette Young warning she is getting close to revoking exemptions.

The delicate relationship between the Queensland government and the NRL has taken a further hit, with Api Koroisau under investigation following claims he breached a strict biosecurity bubble while in NSW Origin camp.

It follows vision of NRL families quarantining in Queensland hotels passing food to each other on balconies, breaching government protocols that were enacted late on Wednesday night.

The NRL relocated to Queensland as the NSW COVID outbreak took hold, and has been granted exemptions to continue the competition north of the border based on assurances players and staff follow strict protocols agreed to by the government.

Only one person here definitely isn’t Crispy, because he told us so 10 times during the NSW press conference.

Correct.
Which is pretty much what I thought would happen.

They’ve hit a wall. They don’t want to lockdown any harder so they’ll float at 100~ daily cases for a while.

They’ve changed their metrics for getting out of lockdown.
It started at 0 cases. When that got a bit out of control, then they leaned on 0 cases in the community. Now that’s gotten a bit out of control, so it’s vaccination rates.
They’ve probably done modelling that shows it’ll be quicker to reach 50% vaccinations in NSW than to reach 0 cases.

Best of luck to them.

Did a test run just to check I could carry enough supplies.

Wild cases, though…pretty sure they’ve doubled in a week…
It’s impossible to project.
I will say this, they’re lucky as ■■■■ that this didn’t happen two, three months earlier.

7 in hospital, 2 in ICU reported for Victoria.
There was a query about placing an immuno compromised man in a medi hotel. Sutton said not his decision or a policy decision - made by clinicians looking after him, on basis of best option for his health treatment.

That’s a reasonable excuse but I’m afraid I must ask for evidence.

gee i wonder why that might be

fk that’d be so funny

where would they go? png?

They’ve been floating between 30-50% with some outlier days.
They have to realise that reducing the wild cases comes hand in hand with cases.
