‘Not yet clear’ where NSW man picked up COVID infection: Chant | Sky News AustraliaNSW Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant says it is currently “not clear” where the Sydney man who tested positive for COVID picked up the infection since he did not have contact with the usual transmission 'routes'. \n\n“He hasn't returned from overseas, he hasn't worked in border or quarantine roles, he has not had any contact with the hospital system,” she said. \n\n“So all of the usual routes where we would expect someone to have acquired the infection are not clear. \n\n“That's why this really requires us to do that genome sequencing to give us that understanding of where that source of infection was and then we can work back from that.\n\n“In addition, we will be testing those around him, and so again that may lead us to some other chains of transmission.' Maybe he didn't have the vaccine yet? I am waiting for so called CMOs of Australia to actually speak about the most essential weapon to beat Corona. Which is vaccine. They seem to believe negligence is bliss. Seems there will ALWAYS be leaks in the quarantine system and this virus will be a threat for years to come. All the protocols and safety measures but this virus eventually finds a way to break through into the community. It’s vaccination or bust as far as getting back to normal When u use a shitty test that wasnt designed to find viruses u end up with inaccurate information.

NSW children to learn about agriculture in new program | Sky News AustraliaAgriculture and farming will be incorporated into a new learning program for New South Wales children as part of a federally-backed initiative to teach them about the sector before the age of 12.\n\nNSW Farmers Federation President James Jackson told Sky News children across Australia “don’t really understand the food and fibre supply chains”.\n\n“Our kids don’t have that uncle on the farm anymore and they don’t go in the school holidays out to a farm so they don’t really understand where their food and fibre comes from.' \n\nHe said getting children out onto farms for hands on experience was more “problematic” now with occupation health and safety standards, but they wanted all NSW children to have an interactive experience in the industry at least twice before they were 12-years-old. \n\n“It is an experimental program, there has been some work done by the Primary Industry Foundation of Australia to actually get more mentions of agriculture in the curriculum, but there is nothing like seeing and doing it,” Mr Jackson said. \n\n Maybe mattjcan can join in as well. He has no idea about farming (he loves coal).
