The cases will rise for a while yet, that is to be expected. Hopefully we will see a decline in a few weeks after locking **** down again.
Unfortunately I'm thinking there will be a huge spike in deaths in the US in a couple of weeks considering they are reaching capacity in a lot of areas. This is why we are trying to catch it before we get overwhelmed. |

Well I think the mask issue in Australia is because we were told not to go buy them up so that the health workers are left short not necessarily because we don't want to wear them. Apart from what is happening now in Vic there really hasn't been a strong case for it.
We flattened the curve without them since we haven't had much community transmission and that is what is different about what is happening now. Sure if I had to I would but you would also have to tell me where I can buy them |

Some c'cksmack back from Vic is on the loose in Tasmania apparently.
Supposed to be in forced quarantine but Police can't find him. Have his rego too at least. I mean seriously. If this clown is positive could be devestating. Last edited by MercuryT; 10-07-2020 at 09:57 PM. |

They've said Victorians should consider wearing masks in public, might get my hipster on and bring back this ol' chestnut:

Sure am getting sick of people parting with
"Have a nice day...Stay safe" I prefer a businesslike parting like "Next......" |

I guess people who are out of work suddenly have a lot of free time on their hands and are attempting repairs on their own cars(?) I'm getting large volumes of calls from Autobarn stores for products that they wouldn't normally buy. I had a regional Autobarn store chasing hydraulic valve control stuff which is about as far away from their business model as you can get Last edited by Franco Cozzo; 11-07-2020 at 12:08 PM. |

Sir, I can back that up as fact. That's me. However, doing that also increases the chance of you breaking something, and having to send it to the mechanics anyway.....which I can also back up as fact |

300 new cases for Australia and 0 deaths so CMR drops to 1.133% and active cases rise to 1,677 (17.9%). The ACT recorded another new case; the NT had 1; WA had 3 and NSW recorded 14 with the balance in Victoria. Victoria also surpassed the benchmark for the highest number of daily cases in the country with 288 compared to the 212 in NSW on March 28th but the overall National total is still well below the 537 peak of 22nd March.
2 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.427% and active cases drop to 23. The UK recorded 512 new cases and 48 deaths yesterday so the CMR drops to 15.496%. Just over 61k new cases in the USA yesterday and 960 deaths sees CMR down to 4.218% and active cases at 51.6% but the raw numbers are rising. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences but today is already looking to be worse. Other notable points: Global cases set a new high for the 2nd consecutive day with 230,525 ; The USA had a 2nd consecutive day with over 60k new cases; South America passes 100k deaths; Asia records a new daily high of 55,523 cases; North America records a new daily high of 78,220 cases and after some recalculations the prior two days were also both new highs; Lebanon (71), Libya (86), El Salvador (=298); Venezuela (431), Kenya (473), Oman (1,889), Iraq (2,848), Colombia (6,803), Mexico (7,280) and India (27,761)recorded new daily highs, those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.

On abc America just now they were saying that a majority of cases out of Texas are avg 21 year olds. I'm really terrified for my nephew and niece, they are in Washington state and its a red zone.

Has Scotty from Marketing gone into Witness Protection?
I just don’t see or hear anything from him, it is not as if Australia is firing on all cylinders, is there an economic restart plan? |

Doesn't want to take the focus away from the VIC Premier. Daniel Andrews is the focus ATM, and Scotty is loving it.

I don't have an issue with people taking a break, but the timing is probably not the best. Also Dan Andrews copped a bollocking for having his bday dinner with his family the other week.

If your PM, or manager, needs to baby site or the organisation 24/7 then something is very wrong. The guy is human, has a life and family and is showing that with some (perhaps loose here) social distancing its OK to get out and about if the region is open. FFS. The worst part of this virus is the amount of free time sooks have now.

Agree we don't need to be "baby sat" 24/7, but can you imagine a CEO telling a large part of his/her organisation that they need to stay home, then the CEO heads to a footy game the next day? At least wait a couple of weeks. Technically nothing wrong, but it's just not a good look. People follow leaders. Anyhow.
Anyone seen this? It is rather hilarious. I think a lot of outsiders are misreading public sentiment in Australia, particular Victoria. I was following it last night, the responses were not very tame either. https://www.news.com.au/world/north-...b9c9a74752af94 I almost think this virus is a higher being testing us. Do we value money or our lives? Are we willing to work together as a society or ? Ok thats getting a bit philosophical. Last edited by T3rminator; 13-07-2020 at 12:22 PM. |

No one could have easily foreseen the fires. Scotty was on holiday and begrudgingly came back to Australian. I don't know about you but the optics didn't look good! C19 didn't just happen, Scotty had 30-60 days advanced warning of this impending disaster and to be brutally honest he's done a **** poor part-time job. Scotty seems more interested in doing soft stuff (photo opportunities) going to the football, having a beer, holding up a shovel. If you don't believe me, check Scotty's own Twitter feed - it is mostly marketing drivel and NOTHING about C19 recovery. The part-time PM who specialises in social distancing? As it's been pointed out to me "you get paid the big bucks, do the job or **** off! |

The problem with some of you is you start with an embedded unassailable hatred of people, political parties etc, then you go looking for excused to vent that hatred.
It has nothing to do with anything rational. As I've said before in a democracy you get the government you deserve, the politicians are just a reflection of society, so what is the real problem ? Oh and Franko, must try harder. Try licking some of your neighbours... |

Riddle me this...
A 55 year old male, who has a liver issue, and thus, a slightly lower than normal immunity level as a side effect. Healthy otherwise, works, still does sport, and lives life as any normal 55 year old male would. Said male contracts COVID. And dies soon after. What was the cause of his death? COVID? Or other?

What you want to be looking at is excess deaths... the additional number of deaths over a given period compared to previous periods.
If comorbidities were so significant, there should be very few excess deaths compared to previous years. Those people would be dying anyway. |
