Disgraceful.
And, some reporting from the States this week:
47
Covid deaths reported in South Australia for the past month (they only report monthly - for now).

🔹PCR cases only: 237 (+11.2%)
🔹Deaths: 47 (+47)
🔹Total deaths: 1,863 (+47)
🔹Hospital: NR
🔹ICU: NR
NR = Not Reported
Not reporting hospital admissions there, of course. Which isn't surprising considering the shambles that is SA Health these days... ambulance ramping off the scale, etc., etc.
Victoria - another
134
Covid deaths between July 10th and August 6th.

"The number of people in hospital with COVID-19 has increased this week. The 7-day average is 112 (week ending 20 August), compared to 106 last week."
"recent 28-day period (10 Jul2024 - 06 Aug2024) there were 134 COVID19 associated deaths"
Notice a pattern yet?!
Yep, I've noticed it.

And lastly seeing as Queensland doesn't provide ANY Covid data at all these days, just like WA (apart from wastewater sampling for WA - for now)... how about that whooping cough there, eh?
https://x.com/BigBadDenis/status/1826448434821582974 Quote:Queensland whooping cough cases skyrocket amid vaccine hesitancy. By Jackie Sinnerton
"Case numbers have exploded 6900%, with 7000 already recorded so far this year – up from 100 in the same period last year."
I'm sure aquascoot's hero, John
Dr. Death/Lex Luthor Gerrard would say that it's "necessary" for everyone to get whooping cough to build that "wall of immunity" like he said about Covid nearly 3 years ago (and we've seen how well that's been working out, haven't we?).
And, finally... from The Vertlartnic... says it all, really.
(Won't be long before all Covid reporting stops, in my opinion).
