And we are talking about just one hospital.

The media under report it, shockingly, but pretend to care, bY reporting "something".
Its to make the public feel like media are being caring and transparent

BULLSH#T

By the way, the vaccine injury stat is MILES above dying from Covid, because what statistic they leave out, is there is a third option, you have to catch Covid first.

So in a population of nearing 8 billion,  divi that up by the amount of people that have died of Covid, and compare it to Vaccine Injury, the REAL stats are far far different

Vaccine Injury risk is far greater than dying of Covid, as they leave out the stat, the 3rd factor, that you have to catch Covid first.

Morons wont understand this of course.

But hey,,,,

I still believe

How good is Scomo!

He strands 8800 Australians in India for 2 weeks.

National uproar, so announces he’s fixed it.
In 2 weeks he’s organising a plane with a capacity of 200.
Job done,Scomo style.......

What age is elderly ?

A ten year old thinks someone who is thirty is old, a thirty year old thinks someone who is sixty five is old, a sixty five year old thinks someone who is eighty five is old and that eighty five year old knows they are old.

It is all a matter of perception, if you are fit and healthy at any age you consider yourself young, but once you have a few ailments you start to see yourself as getting older.

   Coles help to keep the elderly out of Aged care . Wonderful work and caring staff.   They don't have waiting lists like Governments . ( waiting, means for you to die ) .
   All things considered , I must say 99.9 % of people are very helpful , considerate and understanding to the elderly. Most of Our Young I say , can feel proud.

Have to say I agree with Macca.   I have been going good but cracked a knee a few weeks ago, and already I can feel myself aging.  I look at myself as old now, where as before I didnt.
But most people are pretty good at being helpful I have found.

 I'm not old in my mind, but I'm pension age and the body has been battered by sporting injuries from my younger years.   My kids are twenty-nine and twenty-six. I have to stay young to keep up with them. Ouch

Not hard to think Gladys et al are doing the best they can to use Covid as am opportunity to stay relevant. I mean its easy to understand why - as it has already been the only thing has stopped her from being kicked out into political oblivion over her blatant corruption with her "drop in as he pleases" boyfriend. How else can you explain the latest Sydney Covid measures. For 3 days we all had to wear masks - then only retailing staff. Can someone explain to me how that makes any sense ? You can wander around a Shopping Centre all day walking past thousands of people - queue up for food / coffee / use public toilets - but at least you wont be able to get it from Retail staff. Now let me tell what i think the real reason Gladys backed off the masks - she had feedback half the population were not wearing them. Fact is most folk are so over Covid - so whenever they see her they turn the channel button immediately. Many had no idea they even had to wear masks - & i saw no one enforcing it in 2 shopping centres we went to . So my own answer to the above is simple - Retailers staff can be made to wear the bloody things vs average Joes a task too big. OuchOuch

Further - the Contact Tracing process has also lost its way amongst retailers / joe public. Most places would be performing well under 50% i reckon. The only exception is government run joints that can afford to staff up to achieve or Licensed Clubs who are now using the QR Code process to supersede normal sign-in processes.

No money in the federal budget for a federal stand alone quarantine system.

States health departments have responsibility to administer under the emergency heath legislation, but in the constitution quarantine is a federal responsibility. The federal govt is refusing to build stand alone quarantine stations, like the ones they already own on federal land. The Victorian govt wants an existing animal quarantine station on federal land expanded to deal with current and future pandemics.

Moderna has applied for permission to sell 25 million doses to Australia, 10 million this year the rest next year. 

Novavax is also expected to have 25 million, subject to approval by October. Their vaccine is unique in it has the seasonal flu shot built into it, so only 2 shots 3 weeks apart instead of 3.

My friend is currently averaging 8 new vaccine injury patients per shift.
One of her top colleagues, and I quote, said this to her, "I would rather be treating patients with Covid, than patients with vaccine injuries".
That is how tragic things are behind closed doors and curtains.

Media are grossly under-reporting what is going on.

As for Pfizer, wait just 8 more months to 2 more years.
We are going to witness off the chart injuries.


But in saying all of this, I strongly believe

The reality is that there is a lot of testing taking place on mixing of vaccines and so far no side effects and loss of efficacy.

 it's getting beyond a joke.

 I do think a lot of nay-sayers minds might change if the situation here was as bad as overseas.

 You'd be desperate to have the jab, rather than have endless lockdowns. You'd take the chance.

 We sit in a privileged position...but it could change very rapidly because our pollies care more about their egos than what they should be doing...

 nearly as logical as allowing people to visit Manly residents, but not allowing Manly residents to leave the area.

 I wonder who is the real 'brains' behind these rules?

 Everyone was wearing them on buses, yesterday...everyone but my daughter and I. We were so busy chatting, we forgot. No-one was there to fine us, though...
