Finger On The Pulse

I'm an optimist who finds myself in the deep end longing for change. Prefer a nice echo chamber to a filthy gutter.

@CoffeeNutSydney Nope only that vaccines are brilliant but they are not a magic bullet. We have to get cases down.

Three people died yesterday in NSW who were FULLY VACCINATED. How about we let that sink in for a minute before we talk about overseas travel and home quarantine. Like maybe we could focus on getting NSW's outbreak under control first ? #covidnsw #GladysResign

[Finnigans @Thefinnigans]

The carnage continues @GladysB

Sep 14 - 1259 - 12 deaths
Sep 15 - 1351 - 12 deaths
Sep 16 - 1284 - 12 deaths

@DPuschman @BBCWorld Our Pm is complete dud. We are looking forward to forgetting his name soon.

[Finger On The Pulse @FingerOnThePul2]

@mikethad1961 @BBCWorld Don't worry mate he is the most bland and uninspiring pm ever. We refer to him as Scottie from Marketing.

So I guess shutting youth psychiatry wards to accommodate COVID patients probably hurts mental health more than lockdowns, right?

@snowycats @RupertsConscie1 @peggymel2001 Add The Age /SMH to that list too. Used to be fantastic papers. No more. LNP propoganda

Just brilliant! Go Dan… #IStandWithDan

Feeling down, flat, sad, frustrated, tired and over it all suck, but they aren’t the same as having a mental health diagnosis.

Stop invoking ‘mental health’ when actual diagnoses are by definition disabling.

We can talk about wellness but being frustrated is not a pathology.

@Thefinnigans @Suzzanne1313 @GladysB I had a boss like her once. She even told someone whose son had committed suicide to pull it together or not come to work. But when her elderly mother got sick it was the end of the world and no end to the amount of sympathy she wanted. A real leader has empathy for others.

@CaseyBriggs Go VICTORIA!

@profholden My 12 year old stopped whingeing about dobbing when he was 8. Its called developing the maturity to realise that you have responsibility for your own behaviour whether or not you get in trouble. Otherwise know as moral development.

While the NSW Premier has stepped back from being accountable to the NSW community during the 11 am conferences, our state's nurses and midwives continue to work hard to keep our community safe through COVID-19 @nswnma

🔥🔥🔥 Excellent ⁦⁦@annefdavies⁩ ⁦@GuardianAus⁩. Berejiklian’s dereliction of duty by ending her daily pressers is compelling evidence fixed term elections should go. How else to get rid of turkeys in a crisis but force an election? #auspol https://t.co/YpdJr3Jt33

@CaseyBriggs Where is your nsw graph casey ?

[Finger On The Pulse @FingerOnThePul2]

@MagdaSzubanski @GladysB It means we don't care who dies as long as business keeps making money

[Dr Sandro Demaio @SandroDemaio]

Victorians are once again showing their TRUE COLOURS — hard working, committed and generous. When faced with a crisis, they look out for each other. As we break our own state vaccination record yet again, I’m humbled by just how incredible Victorians are. #covid19vic

[Julian Hill MP @JulianHillMP]

You don’t have to be a vaccine expert to know why Australia is in a mess…

[Vicki Russell @VickiRussell62]

You don’t need to be a political analyst to know @JulianHillMP has nailed it. Yet again. #ScottyDoesNothing

1) In a global pandemic, you don't wait for a vaccine company to email. YOU CALL THEM TO GET A MEETING.
2) If Pfizer offers you a meeting. You agree to a meeting.
3) When Pfizer offers 'millions of vaccine doses by the end of 2020', you send them a contract and make a deal.
