The app, which was released to help the government trace COVID-19 cases, has experienced glitches since its release. Tech Guide Editor Steven Fenech told Sky News the update would address a range of issues, but most importantly its ability to trace cases of the virus.
“Especially for iPhones, if the app’s in the background, the more apps you open, it gets buried and loses its effectiveness,” he said. Mr Fenech said the update would address this issue and also better the “interoperability” of different phones. “So when iPhones and Androids get together they can still communicate clearly,” he said.

JobKeeper mistake ‘is actually good news for Australian taxpayers’: Frydenberg | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says “staggering developments” have emerged following the Treasury’s announcement of a 'massive' $60 billion JobKeeper mistake which he discussed in an exclusive interview with Treasurer Josh Frydenberg. \n\nA significant reporting error has led Treasury to dramatically revise its projections for the Morrison government's JobKeeper program. \n\nThe scheme, which sees the government pay $1,500 fortnightly in affected workers' wages, was originally expected to cover around 6.5 million employees at a cost of $130 billion. \n\nBut late Thursday, the Treasury and Australian Tax Office were forced to admit to the Morrison government those projections were wrong.\n\nAs a result, Treasury's revised estimate of the cost of the JobKeeper program is now just $70 billion which is $60 billion less than the original forecast. \n\nTreasury now expects the number of employees likely to be covered under JobKeeper program to be around 3.5 million, around 3 million less than forecast.\n\nTreasurer Josh Frydenberg said the “reality is” this was an “unintentional error by a thousand businesses”.\n\nHe said the initial forecast done by Treasury was done at a time when the number of coronavirus cases were on the rise in the nation but said this result “is good news for the Australian taxpayer”. \n\n“It’s good news that the Australian economy hasn’t deteriorated in the way Treasury initially predicted”. \n\n“Nobody should be seeking to blame Treasury or the ATO, we should just be accepting that this is a mistake, it was an unintentional one”. \n\nMr Kenny said the whole “massive” mistake has raised “a range of questions” over the government’s budget which now faces $60 billon less debt than expected. \n\nHowever, “the good news was that it means we’re $60 billion better off than we thought,” Mr Kenny said. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia JoshFrydenberg Great news our treasure made such a monumental error, more like lucky it wasn’t the other way around & we were found to be shortchanged. Fact is liberals are bad economic managers & Frydenberg is the worst JoshFrydenberg Labors fault as usual JoshFrydenberg Did Kenny the Coward ask any tough questions or just hand out his standard platitudes? Frydenberg is incompetent and should resign. If he does not do that, he should be sacked! Like pockets in a singlet.

Behave more like a federation rather than a 'bunch of independent countries' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says the National Cabinet found 'plenty of consensus in shutting the country down' but four of the states are now holding back the country's recovery and 'slowing down the revival of our economy and society'.\n\nQueensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania have all refused to reopen their borders, while NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian is 'leading the push to have us behave more like a federation than a bunch of independent countries'.\n\n'It is also not what we were promised when we accepted the shut downs, we were told we would slow the spread and open up when we had things under control'.\n\n'Now the premiers seem to have changed all the rules on us, and people are suffering needlessly'.\n\nImage: AP Yep Yeah I think if the PM legally can put a policy in place that states keep their own GST What's wrong with the people in NSW and Vic travelling around their own state and supporting their own states businesses? I think they only want to come up here so they can start peddling their drugs again, same with the Kiwis.

Beijing is ‘using our federal system to create dissent' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says China has “found a way around” our federal system and has utilised a state government that is “prepared to do its bidding”. \n\nOn Thursday the Victorian government’s links to Beijing were questioned by the federal government amid Australia’s trade tensions with China.\n\nHome Affairs Minister Peter Dutton raised concerns over the state’s involvement in China’s Belt and Road initiative.\n\n'Victoria needs to explain why it is the only state in the country that has entered into this agreement,' he said. \n\nWhile Victoria’s Treasurer Tim Pallas recently criticised the Morrison government over its push for an international coronavirus inquiry saying it ‘vilified’ Beijing.\n\nMr Kenny said for the past two years he has been calling out the Andrews government’s involvement in with the initiative, saying it “undermined Australia’s foreign policy”. \n\nHe said Premier Andrews “took Victoria where Canberra was not prepared to take the country” with the deal. \n\n“China has used our federal system to create dissent in our nation.\n\n“China has found a way around our federal government and found a state government prepared to do its bidding.\n\n“China knows precisely what it is doing, Daniel Andrews does not.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia So the federal system has defect, China helps to find it out.

Health officials attempting to achieve 'COVID-19 nirvana' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Smith says some state health bureaucrats want to leave a “famous legacy” and achieve perfection through the “nirvana of COVID-19 eradication”. \n\nHe said the country has now entered one of the “most self-destructive periods in Australian history” as the social and economic impacts of the deadly coronavirus pandemic continue to be felt. \n\nMr Smith said state premiers are taking a “destructive stance on borders” due to the advice they are receiving to stem the spread of the pandemic in the country. \n\nIt comes as One Nation leader Pauline Hanson had recently called for affected Queensland businesses to join her to 'start proceedings against the state government' labelling Premier Palaszczuk's border closures as 'unconstitutional'.\n\nMs Palaszczuk had deferred to her Chief Medical Officer Dr Jeannette Young when justifying why her state may not reopen its borders until September.\n\nMr Smith said the constitutional challenge to the ongoing border closures is “just what we need”. \n\nImage: AP \n Never,never trust a pisshead! You have been warned! CDC is now saying the virus isn’t spread as easily from contaminated as they thought. Maybe next week, they’ll discover it doesn’t survive traveling 6ft through the air either. Chris ...what is the alternative to '“nirvana of COVID-19 eradication”? The way I look it means the higher probability of covid-19 returning and back to lock down. What is the number are you prepared to accept covid-19 fatalities so that thing return to normal?

China should know ‘you can’t shout at Australians and make them obey’ | Sky News AustraliaChina should re-consider how it conducts its diplomacy in the wake of the “despicable” rhetoric coming from some of Beijing’s diplomats, according to former foreign minister Alexander Downer.\n\nChinese Ambassador Cheng Jingye has not shied away from combative rhetoric in recent days, first warning that Chinese tourists may boycott visiting Australia and arguing it was laughable for the government to feel vindicated after a World Health Assembly (WHA) passed a resolution calling for an investigation into the origins of COVID-19.\n\nIn the aftermath of the WHA passing a resolution backing an investigation into the novel pathogen, China has levied an 80 per cent tariff on Australian barley exports, with reports other sectors could be targeted.\n \nMr Downer told Sky News the government has done well to remain calm in the face of the rhetoric coming out of the Chinese embassy.\n\n“If I were the Chinese ambassador in Canberra, before I went to bed at night, I’d think to myself, am I achieving my objectives in this country?” he said.\n\n“Am I not only understanding Australia, which good diplomats should do, but the ultimate diplomat is somebody who can exercise some influence over the host country.\n\n“Well, however are you going to exercise any influence by abusing Australia?”\n\nHe (Cheng Jingye) should try and understand how a liberal democracy work.'\n It's like an abusive relationship - they abuse us but they also need us (iron ore and housing for money laundering). They'll have their tantrum, calm down, and then get back to business. The world now knows the true face of China. The world needs to get together and break their ego. They’re flying too high. Each one of us can help by boycotting anything and everything that’s made in China. ChineseVirus Well perhaps it would also have been better that Oz Govt did not secretly record such as the Timor-Leste cabinet during resource negotiations.
