I live in Adelaide and I’m not aware of any restrictions being eased.
Winter is coming and with that, like every other year, comes the flu. Over 300,000 of confirmed flu cases every year and 4,000 deaths every year makes Covid-19 seem pretty tame.
The UK approach of 'herd immunity' did not work. The UK strategy was based on having 60-70% of the total population getting infected. Hospitals just can't cope. If the easing of restrictions causes further spikes here in Australia, we could end up in same predicament as UK
In that case, we better make sure we lockdown every winter since we know we're never going to eliminate this virus.🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Open the borders so us FIFO workers can come home and see our families.

In 10 years, this might be remembered as the best Ramadan ever. Here’s why - ABC NewsIslam's holy month of fasting, prayer and reflection has been turned on its head by the coronavirus. But for some families, Ramadan is shaping up as their most special yet. We are a secular nation. We pay for a secular broadcaster. Enough of this. It's rubbish, I shouldn't be paying for it and using public funds to promote these delusions is repulsive. Stop. Interesting Nice shot of those pious Muslims enjoying Koranic passages about disbelievers being the ‘worst of creatures’. Perhaps they’re checking up on the beautiful verses permitting sex slavery or the unforgettable ‘slay them wherever you find them’ instructions. So poignant.

Communist China's 'weird spin' wants the world to believe COVID-19 'was accidental' | Sky News AustraliaBeijing doesn't want the world to think the deadly coronavirus came from a viral laboratory in Wuhan as that theory could 'point to the worst fear of everybody' the disease was intentionally unleashed upon the globe, says Sky News host Rowan Dean.\n\nIt comes as US President Donald Trump had said he’s seen evidence the Wuhan Institute of Virology is the origin of COVID-19, not a wet market in the Chinese city.\n\nPresident Trump also said the World Health Organisation should be “ashamed” for being a “public relations agency for China”.\n\nDiscussing the president's comments with Sky News host Peta Credlin, Mr Dean said Donald Trump 'is right to shame' the WHO as it has become a 'discredited organisation'. \n\nHe said the Communist Party of China has produced some 'weird spin' as to the origins of COVID-19, at time making allegations it had actually come from America and then reiterating it came from a wet market in Wuhan. \n\n'Everything points now to it actually having come from a viral laboratory, there's two of them in Wuhan which work on not only viruses but also in using viruses in some kind of biotechnological fashion,' Mr Dean said. \n\n'It's always been likely or certainly possible that the virus somehow escaped, either accidentally or heaven forbid deliberately, from one of these viral laboratories'. \n\n'Clearly Beijing does not want us to think that it's coming out of these laboratories because that could in-turn point to the worst fear of everybody that it was somehow or other, intentional'. \n\nImage: Getty Rowan is clearly off his meds AGAIN Full of crap. Is this journalism? Based on American master's opinion? What fucking Koolaid are you on?
