Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

[Pushka]

And so in SA we go back to density limits of 50% and masks in clinical settings and hairdressers etc. Community cases - zero. No choirs. People from Vic pretty much 14 day quarantine. Preemptive. Footy?

It wouldn't be an opposition leader with opposing the current government's every move.
The Federal Opposiotn are doing it hammer n tong. The the Federal Government couldn't tie a shoelace without them calling it a failure atm.

O'Brien really struggles for any ground down here.
Premiers are the almighty at this point in time.

An opposition has to call out the government, not just whinge for political reasons. Franky the federal opposition has been very cooperative with the current government.

Who are these people you speak of? Never heard of them.

Aren't you in Singapore? You wouldn't be used to the concept of opposition politicians!!

No one has heard of O'Brien.

Vic media conference 4:45pm.

I am not siding with the employer but just pointing out that the risk is much lower than if she was working in west or south-west Sydney.

Unless she’s living in west or south-west Sydney.

Could have sworn the federal opposition leader goes by the initials DA, And Victorian opposition leader by the initials JF.

Vic 2nd Presser. Back with Dan Andrews.

2 additional cases on top of the 2 in this morning's presser

5 day lockdown confirmed. From midnight tonight.

Selected regional areas will be released prior to the 5 days. Subject to test results.

Well I really hope this works for VIC and we don’t end up with another NSW on our hands. Fingers, toes everything crossed.

Another MCG case...

 

[lovetravellingoz]

Jeroen Weimar. On the two newest cases (ie 4 now since midnight last night).

1 case from MCG

1 a personal contact of an apartment building resident.



Comment:
The extra MCG case may well have been the deciding factor to go for the 5 day lockdown now.

July 10 infection means that someone could have been infectious within 48 hours of then (12 July), and that infected person could also be infecting another by 14 July, who could also be infectious by tomorrow......

Another MCG case...

Honestly right now if they are finding them quickly it’s probably good news. The number of generations they’ve detected is crazy..

my friend works as a legal clerical assistant and she is being made to go in to work in the north of Sydney every day.

This is happening a lot clearly for them to comment on it… let’s hope it is stamped out from today!

The Victorian Premier is doing a lot of “im sorry this virus came from Sydney”.

Also saying “I didn’t want 5 months of lockdown”.

If we’re still in this position in 5 months then he needs to be removed from office (along with the PM and every other premier).

He was asked the question, "Do you think we'd be in this position if Sydney locked down earlier".

He only answered the question, that he didn't want to comment on Sydney's procedure's / way of doing things.

Would you expect any polly to give a 1 word answer, they have to waffle on.

Anyway, back on topic…. I’m quite surprised that VIC have still held back from putting in a hard border with NSW given the multiple incursions and spread from the Sydney outbreak. Both VIC and QLD seem to be really holding back on this.

It also seems that there has been a Bondi-like super spreader involved unfortunately…

 

[Must...Fly!]

Frustrating that journalists continue to ask questions about vaccination thresholds to premiers and Prime Minister. Let the scientists figure out the numbers, let them be agreed at national cabinet, and then question and discuss.

I'm sick to death of the commentary that is completely uninformed, scientifically speaking. Journos should know better than to ask and politicians should know much better than to answer.

What would be the use now both are in lock down.
