My personal view is it would have to be dire for Dan to go to lockdowns coming up to an election, the death count will be acknowledged but not considered, it will be hospitalisations that will be the breaking point and we'd all be back in masks everywhere.

Up to 245 for the last week, following today's report.
And today, we're at 273 deaths in the last week. That's a whisker off double that number from 5 or 6 weeks ago.

I’ve been crook as since Tuesday, 2 negative rats but I went and got the other test this morning. I felt so bad cos I’m so sick, I wrote my details on paper and said I’m deaf to make it easier! Hopefully it’s negative, footy on Sunday! Worse flu I have ever had apart from when I had pleurisy years ago. Feel like death warmed up. My temperature is usually 35.1 it got to 36.8 now back to 35.8 but I have no idea what that means!

That should still be on the news, maybe it is, I try to avoid the news atm it’s so depressing! Except sport!

Scary how that number has become the norm and people are not shocked by it. 273 people, that’s a section at the footy,

The News reports daily deaths by states, not the kind of data that P4S is quoting even though it's readily available to find, as it doesn't fit the media narrative.

They've done the scare campaigns to make people compliant with restrictions, now the focus is on getting on with life. For what reason would they publish figures like that? What would it achieve other than people being aware of how many have died? What can anyone do about it?

Anyway, hope you're feeling better soon.

How does that work with the Covid 2nd booster? You have to pay for it if you aren't on the eligible list?

It's not too serious.......At the Moment.

Getting the Flu Vac would also help as I won't get the Cold/Flu too badly though I struggling to Remember when I had a Flu that was too bad.

Worst been a Day or 2 Sleeping In and not feeling 100% but that's about it.

Maybe in 2010 when I was Not Crash Hot for about a Week
