Iâve watch bits and pieces.
The first 10 minutes is always about new exposure sites (usually ones we picked up on the night before), some info about contact tracers scrambling to contain a new growing cluster (that we picked up here a day ago) as well as a live cross to two alarming new tier 1 exposure site (that was noted at that mornings briefing), then some more side bits of information from the briefing before there is a quick 5 second grab of OâBrien saying how much of a failure the Vic Gov & Health have been.
The OâBrien one was a joke the other day. They had a grab of him saying they should have gone harder earlier. Yet, there was one a few days into the outbreak, where he said he canât believe theyâre going into an lockdown over âa few handful of casesâ.
Our media in Victoria is farked.

There was a new positive case listed from 6 days ago in sunbury, still no exposure sites, I just checked covidlive by postcode and it says 0 active Sunbury/Wildwood.

Youâre under reporting there.
Which makes Gladys happy.
As of yesterday they have 11k cases under investigation.
Around 70% to 80% of their daily caseload is under investigation.

Many planes are leased and go to several operators over the years. Lick of paint and often a refurbishment of the interior and they are good to go. Virgin Australia got rid of some of their older aircraft and Rex purchased those

lol, eleven thousand!? Going well.
So much movement between Sunbury and nearby towns in the Ranges, including tradies and Sunbury as a local retail centre. I wondered if the Sunbury one was someone who got tested at the respiratory clinic there, but lived somewhere in the Ranges about 10km or so away.
I believe that ours was slated to come from Europe but no update from about 6 weeks ago. By time we get decent supplies of Moderna we should be up over the 70% mark and closing in on 80%.

Yeah could well be.
From herald sun* lots of âmayâ
Visiting the hairdresser, having a coffee at a cafe outdoors and staying at a holiday home may soon be possible for fully vaccinated Victorians.
These smaller freedoms may be among the first restrictions to ease, if the state follows New South Walesâ plans to open a handful of smaller, one-on-one services to the double-jabbed from Thursday.
OâBrien has completely under performed throughout the whole COVID thing doing things as you have described. Has he got no memory of what he previously says?

so we get to 70% and get this?
pittance.
There were reports of Japan recently having problems with Moderna supplies , because of contaminated vials ( something to do with the Spanish manufactured seals on the vials)

80% is likely to happen about 2 to 3 weeks after 70%.
Apart from the gyms - thatâs a high risk setting, schools medium risk - but high need, all the others are lower risk

Do you know what virgin have done with their A330âs?
I expect more measures will gradually be introduced. Try things out for a couple of weeks, see what the case numbers and hospitalisation rates do. Then ease some more areas.
The last thing we need is âFreedom Dayâ like the UK disaster.
This is the most dangerous period of the whole pandemic for Australia. We realistically could end up with hundreds of deaths per week if we play this badly.

no idea it sorta suggests this might happen soon to areas that we could open up a bitâŚ
if they open up areas now to vaccinated at what stage do they open those freedoms to unvaccinated? when there is more cases???
Rosebud and Kilsyth exposure sites are offices of the same Solicitor.
Itâs all well and good, but the fully vaccinated population atm is very small. Very few businesses could justify the expense of trading to such a narrow market. Will need the fully vaccinated population to be much greater before this is feasible
