Vale Patrick Stewart. A great man and a life well lived. The world is poorer with your loss. Thank you for everything.

@GemmaRaphael @ms_dzt Nurses often go through a few self-checks before giving any medication to reduce chances of error (eg right drug, right dose, right person etc). Considering that Homebush do both Pfizer & AZ, this is probably a safety procedure done prior to vaccination more than anything else

Hi @Channel7, has someone told you your @7Olympics badminton coverage on @Plus7 right now has commentary for the Indonesia vs GB mixed double match but is showing the Peru vs Estonia women's singles match instead...? Better get someone to look into that... #TokyoOlympics

@leonie_playing Those in Fairfield LGA who are required to get tested due to working outside of the LGA do not need to isolate after testing so long as they don't have symptoms https://t.co/CiK8SR8ytH

[NSW Health @NSWHealth]

These people, who do not have symptoms, do not need to wait for a negative test before going to work although they must carry proof of the test and then after 16 July, they must get a test every three days.

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@Cabramatta_ Yes, it's absolutely frustrating to be honest. Some of my relatives fall within the testing requirements & from the info at the time, I said they'd need to get tested. They waited almost *4 hrs* to do so at the Showgrounds, when it turns out there was no need to rush at all! 😤

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@Cabramatta_ Thanks for that. I also just found this which seems to only have gone up within the past few hrs and which clarifies in greater detail: https://t.co/e3NROvDGwU
It's very disappointing that this wasn't made clear from the outset. All this pandemonium could have been avoided!

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@Cabramatta_ Non compliance with a public health order for a corporation puts them at risk of a a $55,000 fine! I know some companies have sent workers from the area home early specifically so they can get tested 2/2

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@Cabramatta_ I don't think 16th July is accurate. Although Brad Hazzard did say police would show leniency in the first 24-36 hrs, the new requirement also makes the employer responsible for ensuring workers from Fairfield LGA are not allowed on work premises without a evidence of a test 1/2

@WickedDreamer @NSWHealth Apart from the pop-up clinic obviously (though this location has operated as a pop-up clinic previously)

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@WickedDreamer @NSWHealth I personally wouldn't read into it too much. All these locations have been operating for many months now, since around the time the initial Thai Rock cases surfaced

@BelongAU Is there an issue with SIM activation at the moment? I've tried clicking on 'Activate SIM here' via the website and the app but it doesn't do anything except redirect me to my account pg (https://t.co/aLELvWIFuI). Hoping you can help - am looking to activate my SIM ASAP

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@SarahTtheWriter @abcnews No worries Sarah. Thanks for engaging and correcting. Keep up the valuable work and be safe 👍🏻

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@9NewsAUS This article is inaccurate and misinformed. The advice from NSW Health is to self-isolate for 14 days even if tested negative *if* you have attended any of the venues on their 'Self-isolate and get tested immediately' list. For the full details, see https://t.co/JDVuOnQGvR

@Graemeinnes I'm surprised image descriptions aren't already in use - it definitely would make tweets such as the above much less useful for those with visual impairment. @NSWHealth FYI, the Twitter guide for adding descriptions to images can be found here: https://t.co/JECAweauAQ

@msstephcarrick @StVHealthAust @SVHSydney COVID-19 case definition and testing criteria in NSW have have recently been expanded. See https://t.co/XyGMB7naPK

@PMixtress If you're stuck for sanitiser, 70% rubbing alcohol (eg Isocol) will work if you can still find it. The only problem is it might be hard to achieve the 20sec contact needed as it's a liquid. Also it doesn't contain moisturisers & might dry your hands more easily than proper rubs

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@PMixtress Don't know the definitive answer, but my guess is at that %, it would either have no effect, or the effect is so low that the contact time required would be so long as to make it practically useless. If you have the option, soap and water would still be the safest bet

[Paul @WebTrawler]

@PMixtress Save the vodka for drinking and use soap and water instead. Vodka only contains 40% alcohol which is below the 60-80% concentration required to be effective as a hand sanitiser. See https://t.co/6ut7LjBQFm

@HeinzelmannK @SydneyMetro My Metro is sitting at North Ryde. I just heard a platform announcement which mentioning some kind of issue at Macquarie Uni. Unfortunately I couldn't catch any more detail than that
