it was all about looking after number one

Melbourne is the big city -
it's dog eat dog -
it's a concrete jungle -
it's always about looking after number 1.

The economic system we have adopted makes people like that.

Until the day comes when we trash the current economic system things will only get worse.

Melbourne is the same as any big city -
the people are more like animals that humans.

Here’s an interesting link with stats on COVID cases Australia wide.
Up till yesterday, only 17 in hospital not in ICU
Only 2 in ICU.
And surprisingly, 12 in hospital are in Queensland!
None in hospital in Victoria .... maybe we’re a tougher breed

Aged care worker among Victoria's
five new COVID cases

By Richard Wood • Senior Journalist

12:20pm May 30, 2021

https://www.9news.com.au/national/coronavirus-victoria-update-may-30-covid19-cas...

One of Victoria's latest five cases is a worker in an aged care facility.

Acting premier James Merlino said the staff member worked at Arcare in Maidstone.
"I want to thank the worker for doing the right thing and getting tested immediately upon getting symptoms, and helping get the facility as safe as possible," he said.
In total, two of today's five cases are close contacts in quarantine, one is linked to an exposure site and two are under investigation.

The new figures were released after 45,000 tests over the previous 24 hours.
The new figures come after only five new cases were revealed on Saturday.
But despite the positive signs amidst a record testing blitz, there remain hundreds of exposure sites visited by positive COVID cases that have contact tracers on edge.
Some of the latest exposure sites include several stores at Chadstone Shopping Centre and LaTrobe University.
A positive case visited the popular retail spot on Wednesday, with a restaurant they dined at now classified a Tier One location.
The infected person dined at Yokozuna between 11.30am and 12pm on May 26.
The other stores visited by the case include Optus, Bakers Delight and Woolworths which are all now listed as Tier Two sites.

They keep telling us they have a platinum system in place but I'm starting to doubt it very much.

A few weeks back I went to Adelaide for business when we touched down in SA there were people there asking questions about your visit while you showed your border pass.

On the way back I got a border pass for Melb Vic got of the plane NOTHING just went and picked up my luggage and went home.

We pay the price for maladministration.

Thats actually quite disturbing.
We've been told that it's mostly people with pre existing medical conditions that die from covid
Those stats indicate that 1/4 of the deaths are of people with NO pre existing medical conditions

Why is that a cause for Bobby's and Cods' celebration and rejoicing of the death of individual Indians?

Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.

I am frightened of old age.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerontophobia

Gerontophobia is the fear of age-related self-degeneration (similar to Gerascophobia), or a hatred or fear of the elderly due to memento mori.

Ageism
Discriminatory aspects of ageism have been strongly linked to gerontophobia.[3] This irrational fear or hatred of the elderly is associated with the fact that someday all young people including oneself will be old inevitably and suffer from the irreversible health decline that comes with old age, which is associated with disability, disease and death. The sight of aged people is a reminder of death (memento mori) and inevitable biological vulnerability. This unwillingness to accept these manifests in feelings of hostility and discriminatory acts towards the elderly

My gerontophobia stems from the time I did a course in aged care. I completed the assessment course. The course co-ordinator asked if I wanted to keep on for the practical side working in an aged care facility. I said "yes". I did one... single... eight... hour... day, where I got up at 5 in the morning and was at a facility at 6 to start a practical. By 3 pm, I was ready to fall asleep, even when I did not do much work. I called the training centre and said no more would I be attending the prac. They awarded me for the written assessment that I could use towards other hospital-related employment.

But as for the aged care workers, I was absolutely rocked by how much effort they put into their jobs. They have to be on the go pretty much all the time and they have to document everything they do. The residents there are very demanding. Some stories I have heard is that the residents can be unreasonable.

I am ashamed to admit it, but I feel that sometimes people can be a burden on society when they are no longer capable of looking after themselves. The Paralympics that I watch after seeing the Olympics is the only thing that brings me back to a sane position on the subject. But, the elderly do sometimes unshackle my ageist thought process. Even Dad (66 years of age) is starting to peeve me off.
