Iā€™m surprised this hasnā€™t been mentioned in the 16 threads but you can also help research the covid 19 bug with some processing power of your computer at home.

They paused all their other projects for covid 19 work but they also cover things like cancers, ebola etcā€¦

Basically when your computer is idle it will process a tiny part of the research and send the information back to the collaborator which then puts it all back together in the hope we find a crack in the armour.

The tech to do this I believe isnā€™t new as NASA did it for years for their SETI program.

Thailand is opening itā€™s international borders from October 1st quarantine free to all vaccinated tourists.

Leicesterā€™s owners will be stoked. Duty free up and firing again.

Already booked a a fully furnished house with ocean views and private pool 5 mins from the beach in Maret, Koh Samui for the month of December for 460$ aud 48hrs cancellation. Fingers crosses they ease on these insane border laws for the fully vaxxed by then. Youā€™d think weā€™re becoming addicted to being ball and chained inside our own suburbs, towns, cities, states and borders. I want out.

Why do you hate the Facts thread so much?

(May be elsewhere as well, I stopped at the first match.)

OG Coles positive was a store visit from middle management, an employee who resides in Melb. Blows my mind a company would actually allow this? The Wallington case was in fact Drysdale as mentioned earlier.

Torquay Coles also now Tier 2 site, seems to be related to the V-Line staff infection. Other sites listed Tues night:

McDonalds Newcomb , 144-146 Bellarine Highway (September 8, 6.30am-7am)

Ocean Petroleum Drysdale , 110 High Street (September 7, 4.30pm to 5pm).

Decjuba ā€” Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre (September 10, 4.30-6pm)

Pet Barn Waurn Ponds , 2/26 Rossack Drive, Waurn Ponds (September 9, 9.35am-10.30am)

Any word on where the Drysdale link is?

The Petrol station exposure in Drysdale and McDonalds Newcomb, and the time they have occurred, suggest a Geelong worker who potentially resides in Drysdale and has then infected their household.

A Clifton Springs fam who are now isolating have been very co-operative with authorities regarding their whereabouts, actually trying to warn people of their movements prior to isolating on local community FB groups. This may be potential source but this would be at a guess. Otherwise no inside info unfortunately.

Over 50k tests, possibly explains @saladin delays?

Numbers going down, I think itā€™s over and weā€™ve won.

That looks ok to my untrained eye

What do you think your odds of being able to go on that trip are?

Wow we have survived a Tuesday and now a Wednesday without a massive surge in numbers.
