No wonder we keep getting Covid outbreaks.

Maybe that should be increased to at least $40,000 (plus jail time) since they could afford to hire a "superyacht" for $18,000 a day but I'm betting even that wouldn't deter some of these idiots.

Why does she bob her head like a woodpecker when she speaks?

Actually, they are still reporting.  Case numbers are being reported and contract tracing/venue alerts and cleaning are still the norm.  My family were contacted as part of contract tracing as they were in a venue with an exposure, but the household is fully vaccinated besides the young kids so they are worried.  They have been asked to self isolate for 3 days while they all get tested each day.

The MOH plan is to move to this sort of model that you've mentioned once they've reached about 2 thirds of their population being fully vaccinated which they're on track for some time in August.

To supplement that, they want to introduce things like 2-minute breathalyzer style testing to allow them to reopen their borders without restrictions plus a slew of other measures that you conveniently failed to mention.

They will have the percentage of their population and migrant workers vaccinated that will allow them to do this.

I really like their plan and once we reach the same level of vaccinations I hope we can adopt a similar approach. 

But you've got to stop twisting reality to suit your dimwitted opinions.

You want to be in the position Singapore is preparing for without doing the work to get there.  You should start advocating we all get vaccinated rather than pretending to be tough because you want to return to normal and do away with lockdowns and other mitigation efforts today, unprepared because you're such a big strong man who can live with, and watch others die from, the virus.

News flash poo for brains, we all want to return to normal...

There is a right and wrong way to do it.

We've been left down on vaccines, we've been let down on quarantine. 

I've been helping my elderly neighbour who is caring for her husband in palliative care at home, isolated from the world because their children are stuck overseas and still can't come home.

On our mini lockdown (SE QLD), I noticed when taking her bin in from the street her letterbox was overflowing and I feared the worst.  I grabbed my mask and knocked on the door.  Turns out she had chosen, for the 3 day lock down, not to go outside go outside to check the mail and thankfully hadn't fallen or anything, but during the lockdown the click and collect from woolies had stopped taking new orders and her exception for that still had a nearly 2 week wait and she was out of supplies. 

I insisted that she give me a list and got what she needed for her and her husband but this is the sort of thing her children want to be able to do.

I've spoken to her and them and she promises she'll call if ever she needs anything or something like that happens again, but I'm also worried about helping because I'm still not even had my first jab. 

I went again today to the Gold Coast hospital in my lunch break to attempt to get the Pfizer jab and the same staff was on shift and told me the same thing she did yesterday and told me not to try again this week.

What's worse is my neighbour refuses to leave her husband's side so she's not been out to get vaccinated yet.  With the permission of her and he daughter, I've been talking with her GP and since she'll be taking AZ, they are trying to organise home visits to get it done.  I'll feel better if I have to drop any supplies off, even if leaving them outside if she's vaccinated, better still when I am, but I really feel for her and the situation she's in. 

The kids also want to get home to see their father, but at least he's not a vegetable or anything, he is able to talk and video chat, but he's bedridden in a rented hospital bed in the lounge room and his wife, nearly 80 herself, is sleep on the floor next to him on an air mattress so she can be close to him.

And that's the other instance we've been let down, quarantine and allowing returning Australians to come home.

It's heartbreaking but at the same time, she doesn't want anyone else being negatively impacted because of their situation, which is why she had until now, refused to accept any help other than taking her bins out on bin day and bringing them back in.

At least now she'll let me get any supplies that they can't get delivered and walk her dog when I take mine out and do what we're calling "window checks" when I do.

I'm sure this is a familiar story for many.

But like everyone else, I want an end to this.  But we're just not at the point where we can open up like Singapore is planning, despite you pretending that all it takes is a big tough guy to make the decision.

I really don't. You should spend less time on utube and more time thinking for yourself.
