Coronavirus

Only running a temp at the moment and Sister and daughter have gone to live over at Mum's granny flat and look after her.  So son has to look after himself I guess.  Not sure what brother in law is doing!  Avoiding everyone.

Approx 3500 people a week die in Australia , We all mourn our loved ones , Shocking times but inevitable.
The aged care areas are about to explode ( Qld ) for sure next week probably . ...   Lots going on in preperation .
Shortages of goods , staff = You name it ---- BUT at this stage the numbers we are losing are the vulnerable in modest numbers.

 we are heading to the Central Coast, next Thursday (27th). I checked the numbers there, first, and found they had a lesser rate of infection than our own locality. So, hopefully, we will get a break from being inside so much in this rainy summer weather. Our booked apartment is so big we can do our daily walk without needing to go outside...

There lay the problems .

   Is it wise to have a vulnerable elderly Family member , Housed with a positive Covid member .

That would be a NO NO may I suggest.   Under the same roof , is a risky way to go.

And unless you have access to Rats and I don't who can tell if anyone has it.  Luckily nephew had one or the mix would of been bad.  He'd been away in the country helping a mate over the weekend.  Then started a fever last night and tested himself and everyone skiddaddled.  

I do hope all works out . Furious.    It is a worry.

   I've always been suspicious where air condition set ups are shared.

Enclosed , shared areas are to be avoided.    

Certainly on the move and I've mentioned the aged care areas of Qld have it on the move...     Some severe staff cuts and non , front line staff are on "stay away" instruction.

  quite frankly...if I had a relative who died from covid, after the 'let it rip' direction, I would be mounting a legal case against the DoPe...

Make sure you get 2 to 3 boosters.

 don't tell me that. I'm heading up there to get away from the rain here...

It is literally everywhere in Sydney. i'm starting to feel like the odd man out  

Guessing at new members' true ID is disrespectful so please PM horlicks if you have any concerns.

Hope all goes well oneone but at least they picked it up and can watch her.

Or maybe travelling and meeting people who unfortunately had covid but didn't know it spread it.  

Just imagine if we'd opened up before the vaccines.  I know you don't think if but daughter says the nurses are at breaking point.  Thank heavens we didn't let it run back then.
