Takes the total number of locally acquired cases to 15 and one of those was infected while attending the Collingwood v Port Adelaide game on the weekend. Luckily Collingwood are having a bad season there was only just over 23,000 there. It’s only a matter of time you think before this has a domino effect on the AFL season and I think McGoo needs a hard border close with Victoria. We don’t want it here farking up our WAFL season and crowds at AFL games here. 

If he plays his cards right there might be extra AFL games switched here. Maybe a bubble.

Once again DD it just shows how fragile the situation is with this stemming from another return traveler quarantining in a HOTEL in SA.

Surely the federal government will start to get a grasp on the real issues and the fact no matter the processes in place now in Vic, here and the GOLD standard blessed place that is NSW. Perhaps even Singapore would be an example of gold standards turning to Iron Pyrite!

Funny that there has been a sudden rush in Vic for vaccinations!

It seems to be a situation where Victoria is always having troubles, I wonder if this is because they never get it under control, or if they are just to complacent, they seem to be very quick to wanting to return to normal living.

Is this an opportunity for the federal government to just move all Covid vaccine jabs to Victoria and do a mass vaccination there targeting as many people over 18 as they can?

As the health experts have been saying over and over again, it's inevitable that there will be big outbreaks as we head into winter especially with the media scaring all and sundry into not having a jab. Britain and the USA, after totally miss-handling the virus are now showing that mass vaccinations do the job.

While the media need to report these 1 in 100,000 clotting events, it also needs to balance that info with comparative side effects in generally accepted vaccinations and medications, eg the womens contraceptive pill has a clotting event rate 30-50 times higher than the AZ jab, but we never hear that, the flu vax has an effective rate of around 55% where as all the covid jabs are around 80-95%.

Yes the feds have been painfully slow to get the vax out there but they should now be using the Vicco experience to emphasise the vital role of vaccination.

People hate lockdowns, they cost the economy, they cost jobs and the mental health issues are enormous, so all those who choose not to get the jab have no right to complain if the state gets shutdown again the next time there's a breakout, because there will be plenty of next times if over 30% of the population resist having the jab and preventing herd immunity.

We will see what happens in Victoria in the next couple of days.But that infected person at the pies v Port game,MCG.Is of  real consern.Also a local shopping centre put the Western Bulldogs into quarantine..Don't be surprised if the Afl is back in Queensland next week.

The only thing is that no self respecting virus would go near a collingwood supporter. it might catch something!

Another 11 new cases in Melbourne overnight. Shut the border with Victoria MR POPULAR. With Melbourne about to go into lockdown Victorians will want to come here en mass.

Just in Vic in 7 day lockdown. 

Gladdie will not be pleased and scomo will follow suit.

Had to do it with that number of new cases, only way to knock it on the head.
As the health authorities keep saying, this will continue to happen until everyone who is able to have the jab, gets the jab. I'm off in a couple of days to get mine.
