Kids. What does this mean for them?

@LisaJBryant @ACECQA @JCherryGEL @JenniHutchins I have distinct memory of highlighting and using it to create policies and audits Everyone I’ve asked this afternoon has also sworn it was in Regs…. It’s an EC Mandela Effect I’m telling you.

[Amanda Archer @Amanda__Archer]

@LisaJBryant @ACECQA @JCherryGEL @JenniHutchins May have led you on a Mandela effect. I can’t find it in previous regs now, maybe guidance?. All policies originally were 12 mths update so came from somewhere.Advice now is as long as plan is after 2020 go by date on plan or what is in policy. I swear it was regs…

RT if you personally know someone with Covid right now.

@LisaJBryant @AmberMPH @nigelbyrne If they are are all off because of community or family transmission risk yes…then yes no CCS / waive fee and viability risk.
If they are off because educator or child came in and then was positive, you can waive and claim CCS, still viability risk as up to 40% avg fee loss.

[Amanda Archer @Amanda__Archer]

@LisaJBryant @AmberMPH @nigelbyrne If the isolation is due to community and not centre related isolation gap fees currently cannot be waived.

10 days ago I knew nobody with Covid. Different story now as one by one friends & family succumb. Now up to 2 doz, some very sick. Getting a PCR test in Syd & Illawarra is impossible. Who cares? Not the govt apparently. “She’ll be right mate!”

[Dr Sheep Person Podge @noplaceforsheep]

That’s 21000 who managed to get tested.
What about everybody who can’t?

I’m a living breathing human being who had to fight tooth and nail to make it through the past 10 months.

In the wake of the findings of the Jenkins Review and the innumerable stories of abuse in Parliament House - to call this issue ‘neutralised’ is beyond insulting.

[Prof Jane Munro @DrJaneMunro]

Do it all.

If this isn’t a public policy failure, tell me what is: “about 6 million doses are yet to be used, even as more than half the nation is in lockdown due to outbreaks of the highly infectious Delta variant” https://t.co/MtIc6Qs5rD
