From what I’ve read I think the latter scenario, so provide protection to vulnerable by reducing impact of infection rather than overall prevention of any transmission of infection.

Things would be a lot easier if everyone knew that these symptoms were a result of your immune system working ![]() Maybe then we wouldn't have all these anti-vaxxers saying stupid things like "the vaccine makes you sick", "I don't vaccinate my kids, and they never get sick". Luckily with these vaccines being mRNA vaccines, we shouldn't have to worry about people 'getting sick from the vaccine' since they don't actually contain the virus itself... |

As a Victorian you should be greatful that we have a NSWelshman filtering all the Victorian news for us. Day in day out. I really appreciate that all the faults are highlighted too. I'll give him a gold star for gold standard.

NSW records zero local COVID-19 cases, but two cases found after reporting period NSW Acting Premier John Barilaro challenged people to come out in droves to get tested, particularly in Western Sydney. "My message to everybody, everyone though today we are talking about a zero day of locally-acquired cases, it is important that we keep that testing regime up," Mr Barilaro said. "Let's see how as a state we can actually again bring the numbers up — 30, 40, 50,000." https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-...eriod/13029168 |

NSW Police Minister ‘furious’ as cops investigate Fairfield wedding venue for having 600-800 guests
Quote:
The Imperial Paradiso reception venue in Fairfield was fined... wait for it.. $5'000 dollars. After they had deliberately disobeyed NSW directives. $5'000, when the venue is said to have made a profit of just over $100'000 for the night. None of the 600 to 800 guests in attendance were fined. This will only encourage other venues to do as they please, if the fine is only going to be $5'000. ![]() |

When you play politics with a pandemic it tends to come back and bite you in the ***....

I really don't see it happening to be honest. The organisations that process those payments will not hand it over to a state government, which would leave the retailer to hand to over and I doubt they would either.

It appears the National Contact Tracing Review has recommended using payment cards to help with contact tracing. It also appears National Cabinet had agreed to the recommendations. It doesn't talk about the legal ramifications though. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/fede...13-p56eea.html https://www.mobilepaymentstoday.com/...-transactions/ |

Considering that when police want similar information it takes many weeks and many many hoops to jump through... Yet, in reality it would take all of 5 minutes of everyone played ball...

Remember back in the day on the rugby paddock, there was that chirpy little turd of a half back who would stand at the back of the ruck and constantly wind you up. All you ever wanted to do was grab him and beat the living daylights out of him... be he would always scamper away.
McGowan is the political version of that half back https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-...icism/13029578 Quote:

Do you think governments do not enact or seek special provisions to their powers in times like these? |

"Currently Western Australia is taking the most per capita of returning Australians of any state" IMO, states 'allowing' or at least not controlling interstate travel should have acted differently. You'll bag Gladdys, you'll bag Dan ? What about S.A, Tas or NT ? Haven't heard much from them, at least Mark tells you the 'deal' If the state(s) govt can't control the people, why shouldn't it be 'black and white' ? We are fortunate here that's for sure, what would you do with that option given its 'out of control' there ? I would stand and defend regardless of them that think a loud, with a superiority complex will win; does not work in my space Last edited by Mr_G6ET; 04-01-2021 at 09:52 PM. |

I'm a big fan of MM. Its got nothing to do with party politics, I just like how he calls it straight, no beating around the bush, marketing spin or weasel words. He is doing exactly the right thing by his constituents with these quick and firm decisions. In fact I think he is doing the right thing by the country as a whole. WA's economy is churning along, and they are bringing in a surplus whereas other states are haemorrhaging deficits. Lecturing is when you stand on your ivory tower criticising every other premier for taking steps to protect their residents when it is your inaction causing it. Just my opinion. |
