Healthy communities = healthy economies

[Birdie @B1rd1e_Tweet]

Businesses need to take measures to reduce the risk of transmission for every person they interact with.

Mark my words, the economics of continual infection will cost businesses more than the measures to reduce transmission.

Healthy communities drive healthy businesses.

New pandemic phase just dropped:

Long COVID is real and real expensive.

[Dalia Hasan MD MSc CCFP @DaliaHasanMD]

From @NatureComms on household transmission of COVID:

Mask wearing by the index case is associated with the household transmission risk reduction by 67% and not sharing bedroom with the index case is associated with the risk reduction of household transmission by 78%

@ManUnitedPage1 Got through and have been able to purchase

@ManUnitedPage1 I’m having the same issue. I’ve tried Telstra and that won’t work either 😤

A message from the parents of Australia to:

@pruecar @NatHutchins @gracextwo @TonyButi_MLA @BBoyerMP @JasonClareMP

Stop gaslighting & blaming parents & take responsibility for protecting the health of students and teachers with #CleanAir

1/ I'm posting this, because I want people to understand I was censured by Ahpra for "imply[ing] that [politicians and government bodies] are acting either deceptively or coercively, and for motives other than the public health interest".

@obyrne_rachael This is absolutely awful Rachael. I hope your mum makes a full recovery. I am so deeply sorry that on top of the worry about your mum’s stroke you’re also worrying about Covid too - this is unconscionable that you’re in this position.

[Rachael L. @Rachael_l_]

For the record (seriously FOR THE ACTUAL RECORD) my mum had a stroke today and got admitted to SCG hospital (WA). When the ambo arrived I discussed masking. Here's what happened next: 1/

New Covid-19 reporting requirements in one state has skewed the national data, with the country recording a 25 per cent drop in positive cases in one week.

Slow clap for the ⁦@DanielAndrewsMP⁩ government.. https://t.co/r8hMMz69sa

[Prof Kathy Eagar AM @keagar.bsky.social @k_eagar]

There have been 205 COVID deaths reported in the last 7 days. That’s nearly 30 deaths a day. COVID is now entrenched as our third leading cause of death behind heart disease and dementia. It is nothing like the flu, as this graph so clearly illustrates @CroakeyNews @abcnews 👇

[Henry Madison @RageSheen]

I believe we're not supposed to draw the comparison. But the science increasingly does. You won't find chronic infection if you're not looking for it. Many infectious disease physicians seem to be not much interested.

Watch this video.
Watch it again.
Watch it again.
Understand it.
Share it.
Show it to the people you care about.
I'm sharing it with you, because I care about YOU.

[tern @1goodtern]

The thing is they just don't want to.

It doesn't matter if you prove it's airborne.
It doesn't matter if you prove respirators work.
It doesn't matter if you prove it's still dangerous.

[Cals curious mind @CalCurious]

Went through a booze&drug bus today. I asked for a covid safe interaction.
Officer 1 looked agressive then half stepped back and held the device at arms length.
Officer 2 refused to step back or mask. He claimed they were really good at changing gloves. @VictoriaPolice do better

The greatest act of deliberate self harm in human history

[Anna- @annatime94]

So now there is research that COVID-19 can cause brain cells to ‘fuse’ everyone is still fine with children sitting in unmitigated classrooms being reinfected several times a year?

You all still think our ALP Govts are doing the best they can? Pathetic. https://t.co/nkEKp14XBh

@CassyOConnorMP Bravo 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼

For an insight into why Tasmania has the highest SARS-Cov 2 transmission rate in the nation, here’s our part time Health Minister trying to explain why he led the National Cabinet charge with Perrottet to remove mandatory 5 day isolation

MEDIA REQUEST
I've got a trustworthy journo from a big newspaper asking if anyone who has had recent COVID trauma/bereavement would give an interview for a piece on "Covid is not over". DM me or reply here
Thx

8 weeks ago CMO Paul Kelly recklessly & w/o evidence declared “almost every citizen is now immune” & hybrid immunity of 99.6% of Aust pop

8 weeks later cases, hospitalisations & deaths are skyrocketing

What use is this hybrid immunity @Mark_Butler_MP?

No one seems immune 🤨
