It is good to see NSW learning from Victoria and testing then subsequently quarantining pilots and flight staff: about a week OT two late but good on them. It beggars belief that neither state was doing this from day 1.

We’ll see in the next two weeks how the Sydney virus is going in Sydney as it will take two weeks or thereabouts post the SCG test for incubation etc. let alone other parts of Sydney.
I think they should ban UK travellers for a while till we know more about this mutant strain.
I should ask my local economist on their view of communicable diseases then I can ask my local immunologist about their view on Macroeconomic theory.

I'm sorry, what state has gone into lockdown because of cases coming from Sydney?watt price tully wrote:I do speak with employers and business owners regularly: guess what, they don’t agree with you.What'sinaname wrote:Your view is horribly skewed. You only look at scientists, immunologists. The ideal isn't to run and hide from the virus. It's to manage living with it. Your ideal world of being locked up when the virus is identified isn't living. It's prison. You should move to China or North Korea if you like this kind of life.watt price tully wrote:

You are however a 100% correct if you accept that exporting the Sydney virus elsewhere is handling things well. By that definition they were fantastic.
However according to the scientists they screwed up. According to professor Eddiesmith, Dr Stui and your self apparently not.
Now who to believe....give me time, it’s just so hard to seek which view one should value.
Ask economists, employer groups, employee groups which isn the preferred response.
We are dealing with a contagious communicable disease, according you speak to experts, you know those who work in the field.
If I want my car fixed I don’t go to my butcher.
Now had Gladys locked down hard straight away she wouldn’t have exported the Sydney virus across Australia forcing governments of both political persuasions to go into lockdown. This isn’t too complex to understand.

No need to lock an entire state down for something confined to a small area.
But then this is Victoria where Regional Victoria was locked down with no cases in 99% of the state because Geelong hand an outbreak that was bigger than the entire NSW cluster!

months too late, I can’t beli this didn’t happen from the first flight.watt price tully wrote:It is good to see NSW learning from Victoria and testing then subsequently quarantining pilots and flight staff: about a week OT two late but good on them.

Re nsw I would have thought they would have learnt from Vic mistakes, they should have locked down the beaches properly straight away, and even nowtheir mask rule isn’t enough. It worked here. Should have been in step 1.
Performance is hard to judge, I’m not sure of its worth the point scoring to behonest, just help and learn from each other. Like ‘hi Tassie, how did you do this.’? Ring a acros the ditch, ask them. For me fixing it and living as close to normal as possible is more important than who did what right now. And I still don’t get why the point of origin and initial big liar in this, has got off so easily, I mean their lies pretty much destroyed life for the human race right now, but heydont upsetthem, you will pay more for your shitty plastic crap.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

Lotif common sense there, but also I still feel in my gut the fear if going through quarantine hell again, hopefully it plays out quickly.
A couple safeguards I think should remain or be implemented, all international flight crew to be tested and also somehow bubbled, test international travellers4 days before flight, and quarantine til flight.
Masks to be worn in shops and centres etc, everywhere but not in the street unless it’s crowded.

Yep, you're another example of someone who's more scared of Dan's cure than the illness itself. How many hundreds of thousands if not millions have also had their mental health adversely impacted?think positive wrote:Lotif common sense there, but also I still feel in my gut the fear if going through quarantine hell again, hopefully it plays out quickly.

Anyway, found this video, it's the guy who decides on the restrictions in Vic explaining them.

Sorry Dave but we don't know that, all we know is that the strain in Vic is the same as that in the northern beaches. The person who ultimately started the Vic outbreak was definitely around Black Rock etc as you say, but how they got infected or who they are we don't know.Dave The Man wrote:It came from someone who came dowm from Northern Beaches who Staying or Living around Black Rock and they went out to Places like Black Rock Hotel/Chadston/Brighton Yaught Clubeddiesmith wrote:And zero cases from anybody forced home from virus free regional
