now lets not forget that the number of over 80 yo's will quadruple in 15 years.

do you really think we have correct priorities .
its time for that conversation

Time for death panels, you think?

A latter day 'Logan's Run' Huxleyesque dystopia?

i would think the euthenasia legislation is part of it.

the largest hospital in brisbane the PAH was rebuilt 10 years ago and its bed capaciity went from 1100 to 850.
there are no more plans to increae public hospital beds.

my nursing contacts tell me that nursing homes CANNOT transfer patients to public hospitals now, without a nurse navigator in emergency approving this.

recognising the stress on public beds which run at nearly 100 % capacity and a quadrupling of the very elederly in the next 15 years, it is patently obvious that the very elderly will not be recieving treatment in public hospitals to the extent they currently seem to think they will be.

the system cannot cope now and covid is just exposing a problem that is inevitable.

you simply cannot do everything for everyone to extend life.

it would require the entire spend from treasury to do so.

its not a matter of "death panels", its a matter of common sense.

the first group to be permanently booted from the hospital system were the mentally ill.

the PAH , again, used to have a 5 story psych hospital with 200 beds. it now has 12 beds.

the elderly should start petitioning for care in the community as they are unlikelly to recieve it in the public hospital setting.

the public hospitals are proceedural places with very quick turnover and throughput .
perfect for a quick cataract or stent or hernia operation but they wont cope with covid patients hanging around for weeks .

they will have to find an alternative model .

mother nature has her way in the end

For somebody who goes on and on about superior men, how come your posts are so full of poo?

The new PA hospital was built 20 yrs ago,
it increased bed capacity from just over 500 to 1,038

Current mental health beds are 64.

Current plans to increase bed capacity by 351 Qld wide.

Yeah, you are so superior to everyone else, you make these numbers up dont you, to try and appear intelligent. Grin

Well, that didn't take long.

SA records two positive COVID-19 cases after borders open to ACT, NSW and Victoria

Quote:

Two people have returned positive COVID-19 tests in South Australia, the day after the state's borders opened to NSW, Victoria and the ACT.

I'm sure the rest of the mainstream media will eventually get around to reporting this as well (when they've finished milking the "feel good" stories about "reuniting families" for all its worth).

how is celebrating "human flourishing" not a noble cause?
why would anyone not feel joy at families being united ?
not everyone is a hermit with extreme death anxiety

I believe the first two replies in this SA Health Twitter thread sum things up quite nicely.

I sure hope Mark McGowan is paying attention (I'm sure he is).

Let's hope the joy doesn't turn to sadness which is what will happen if a lot of these arrivals also bring the 'gift' of Covid to other members of their families for Christmas. Especially for the elderly.

Oh, dear...

SA records another positive Covid case a day after borders opened

A traveller from Sydney is the state’s latest Covid case since borders reopened. The infectious person has prompted multiple exposure sites.

November 25, 2021 - 8:51AM

Quote:

South Australia has recorded its third positive Covid-19 case after an infectious traveller from Sydney touched down at Adelaide Airport on Wednesday morning.

SA Health does not have further details to provide about the traveller, but has listed multiple exposure locations on their site.

Anyone who was on-board the infectious traveller’s flight, Qantas QF733 in rows one to four at 10.15am, you need to immediately quarantine for 14 days, or seven days if fully vaccinated.

Might need a separate South Australia Covid thread soon?

Well done, Steven Marshall - you ignored warnings and caved in to big business (and to Scotty from Marketing as well no doubt) and a Covid disaster will undoubtedly be the result.

But, as long as tourism and hotels are celebrating its all good, eh?

I also find it interesting that Covid infected people from Sydney arrived in Adelaide the very same day SA opens the border.

Makes me wonder about how accurate (and truthful) NSW is being about their number of Covid cases which have 'officially' been about 200 a day for weeks.

There is actually a guy in Dublin with a really infectious strain of TB and he has been in Quarantine since 1960 something.
Should the government just let him out to infect all Ireland and maybe even the world?

Link?

Bobby. Thanks for pointing that out. I am sorry Idid not check that before I posted. I cannot find anything about it either. It must be an urban myth. However for the last number of years some people with highly infectious tb have been being isolated here. I presume the Australian government have been doing that too. Should they stop? I am not allowed post links as I am new, but you can find this if you google 'mdr-tb Irish Times'

Aquascot. I see your point about how, coronavirus aside, nursing homes and hospitals in the west are just unnecessarily prolonging human suffering in many cases. The nursing homes are terrified of an enquiry and being in the spotlight even if they are doing nothing wrong. None the less a lot of the people in hospitals with coronavirus are younger healthier people. Even if you could take the 70 plus people out of the equation, our hospitals would still be overflowing.

On a side note I know somebody who was early fifties healthy, but a small bit overweight. He got the UK strain in spring and died (he was unvaccinated). I know lots of people in 30s, 40s, 50s who are living with the long term effects of coronavirus and this is blocking up our gp system which actually had been very good. Again I do not think that made the international media that the Irish gp system is now completely blocked.

Jasin. Did you know an Irish person invented the submarine? John Holland.
