TOPIC:

Gladdys had a fair bit to say today.Nothing about throwing the other states under the bus.
Blaming the lack of GP's doing COVID-19 vaccinations.The storage of these vaccine's is very tricky.They  only take what they can use in a day.And an attack on Canberra for there slow roll out of the vaccine..
In the UK 80% of adults have been vaccinated.But it didn't stop 18,000 positive cases there yesterday.Surley Gladdy you stop the infection at the source.

My suspicion about the bed shortage is that there are a lot more mental health beds required. That might be due to all sorts of things but I would say people’s uncertainty with the norms of life is taking it’s toll. 

Lockdowns were sold as a way of not overwhelming the hospital beds from COVD patient’s while we get PPE’s in place. 

PPE’s are now in place. 

Stay home (if you want) if you have organ failure (heart, lungs, kidney ect) if you are morbidly obese, have diabetes, are on immunosuppressants, if you are above 80 etc. 

I think everyone else should be allowed to choose to go about their life. 


 

As vaccination rates increase, yes absolutely. You have nailed it. 

State's top Doctor & the nurses advising a snap lockdown - worse than before & no risk should be taken with this one

Singapore plans to treat Covid like the flu once they get their population fully vaccinated, they expect to reach two thirds fully vaccinated by August.

They will stop recording daily new cases but monitor who requires hospitalisation and oxygen. International travellers and close contacts won’t be required to isolate.

You can still catch the virus after any of the vaccines, but it will be significantly less serious and not require hospitalisation in just about all cases plus you are far less able to spread when fully vaccinated.

"Stay home (if you want) if you have organ failure (heart, lungs, kidney ect) if you are morbidly obese, have diabetes, are on immunosuppressants, if you are above 80 etc.

Only thing with that thinking is that the people mentioned will end up being totally isolated as anyone not vaccinated would need to stay away, so do we just abandon these people and the aged who are so susceptible to the serious health risks of the virus and account for most of the deaths? What about their mental health. I hope we are better more caring country than that.

As close to full population vaccination as we can get is the only way we can deal with these never ending outbreaks, once that happens, there wont be the imperative to close everything down because the risk wont be such an issue. Sadly we are dragging our feet regarding vaccination, some is the Feds fault some is outside their responsibility, but they do need to lift their game. The media are happily going about frightening the crap out of the population regarding clotting, but the occurrence of clotting from AZ compared to the risk of clotting for women on birth control pills is around 50 times that of AZ. The risk of clotting from AZ is miniscule when compared the the risk of clotting caused by Covid which is in the range of 15% compared to 0.001%. There are far more side effects from the flu jab. There are risks everytime you go out your front door, if you don't want the jab for fear of side effects I suggest you don't drive anywhere, don't swim in the ocean and don't go out in a thunderstorm, far more risky behaviour than getting the jab.
 

Complacency got the viccos in the shit recently.  Complacency has now got New South We’re immune in the shit.  WA next?
