It was SA's fault that the guy caught covid in their HQ
It's Morrisons fault, just because
It's people's fault for not getting vaccinated when they could

blah blah blah.

Supplies of the vaccines are clearly here and available, people weren't going in until the past few days when numbers spiked. They've now said that people aged 40-49 can get the pfizer shot, they could have done that earlier, it was their call.

Fact is, what they've shown is that if a case gets loose they do not have the ability to manage it without resorting to state wide lockdowns.

Credit for trying, they get an A for effort but an F for execution.
Then Victoria should close there Borders Now and Not Open them until the Pandamic is over as they are so Useless

So you are fine how slow the Vaccination is Going Out?

I'm booked in for the second AZ shot in July, I'm thinking about seeing if I can get in earlier. The sooner I'm fully vaccinated the sooner I can thumb my nose at these restrictions
Sadly I don't see anything about these Restrictions that allow Fully Vaccinated people can do what they want yet

Dave, you keep throwing BS comments like that out at any criticism. meanwhile we're back in lockdown.

yes they're useless, proven beyond doubt to be so. It would be really good if, instead of telling us how good they are, they did something about it.

They carry on how great their contact tracing is, at the same time advertising for extra contact tracers. :roll:

As I say they are that Bad then might as well Close the Borders as can't Trust the Goverment to look after the Public

I guess we can do lot better Job then the Goverment.

Can the Public force a Change of Government as vote of no confidence

Enjoy.
Thanks P4S! Nothing there about laundromats, I see, lol.
It's funny I usually go home on weekends but made the call to stay up here before lockdown anyway. But I was sussing out the local laundromat to wash my work clothes but now I don't have to worry, great result!!!

Only thing that was low was toilet paper here, but not out, just the cheap shit left.

Saw a supermarket worker who had obviously got themselves a packet before the panic buying began leaving tonight, no wonder there's always a shortage, the workers get in first :lol: :lol:

Yeah my Test came back Negative Thankfully.

When I post my Thoughts about Lockdowns I get saying how Stupid I am.

Like Stui Does It and I just have to say we have to Agree to Disagree.

We have Total Different Views on how Governments are Running this but 100% Agree people need to get Vaccinated
