So many are doing it tough. 1000s have Covid or desperately worried about getting it. Health workers at their wit's end. People can't afford or can't access a RAT. Parents worried about the return of school. Small biz suffering. And PM is MIA &showing total lack of compassion 😖
So the solution to the logistical problems caused by the unchecked spread of COVID is [checks notes] ensure *more* sick people are forced to go to work and, just to be on the safe side, limit workplace testing.
The Liberal Party really does hate workers, huh? #auspol
@damelarksong4 Absolutely if you can afford this, it would be most helpful, if your oxygen saturation drops dramatically you need to seek emergency care ASAP
@shauncrowe@cameronwilson Greg Hunt MP just said on ABC that not supplying free RAT was because that is just an “astonishing” (bad) idea from Labor to supply an infinite and free good.
Meanwhile VIC Gov’t is going to supply free based on criteria and the UK does already.
Harvey Norman given millions of your hard earned dollars for free by PM and Frydenberg so it could record record profits. PM then says we can't give the people free RATs, because that'd be bad. Harvey Norman then uses its free money to buy up RATs and price gouge them. #auspol
THE AGE has been mocked over a headline fervently claiming Josh Frydenberg is a most-liked politician. But buried in the story, Frydenberg's rating plunged from 10% to just 3%. The Age has locked comments on a tweet promoting the story. Frydenberg is deeply disliked in Victoria.
The Liberal Party candidate to replace Christian Porter as MP for Pearce at the next federal election is Linda Aitken, a member of Margaret Court's fundamentalist Pentecostal Church! Margaret Court opposes LGBTIQ rights AND supported apartheid. 😠 #auspol#religion#politics
1) Get vaccinated
2) Get boosted if eligible
3) Upgrade mask to N95, KF94, or KN95 for indoor public spaces
4) avoid ‘non essential’ activities, esp if indoors without 1-3 above
5) silent spread from last week —> shows up this week
6) prevention is hard to measure— believe that your actions matter
7) exponential spread = every day lost is worse than the last
8) Rapid tests can stop you from super-spreading unknowingly
9) #COVID19 is airborne — ‘6 feet rule’ is not a rule
10) clean the air, not surfaces
Ya reckon?
Are you all learning who not to listen to yet?
Clues : anyone who EVER downplayed covid or airborne spread or mask wearing or vaccine for kids of all ages.
Put their opinions in the bin & do not EVER listen to them again.

I recently went to two Christmas parties. Not a single person was wearing a mask.
And it was okay, because there’s no epidemic where I live. Western Australia has managed to sustain zero COVID for nearly 2 years.
Eliminating COVID-19 was always possible. The world chose not to.
