    For Omicron, you need N95, KN95 minimum. Otherwise you are wasting your time.

    No one ever said mask ‘prevents’ transmission, but a certified and properly worn one will reduce the probability.

    Agree we will all get Covid.

    If I’m going to die I’d like it to be fucking some gorgeous 20 year old woman.

    The Israeli study showed the 4th (booster) shot doesn't really help in stopping transmission. What's next 5th, 6th etc?

    Pfizer is coming out a new Vax in march for Omicron if testing work. So here we might have it in June.

    Move on, be safe, make decisions based on your risk tolerance. I don’t punt often, but will continue to do so at my regular cadence.

    Life goes on, and I feel bad for small businesses that are just severely impacted by the stay at home measures and the fanfare… it’s fine for white collar professionals like myself that make just as much or more working from home and just get to chill out and do as I please. It must be so tough for those that depend on foot traffic, commuters, city workers, people’s normal behaviours.

    Don’t follow, sorry.

    Those employed by the government ultimately are huge benefactors anyway. Job security, no performance incentive. Clock on, get paid, repeat.

    Walking around Sydney last few weeks… is like the city has no spark, joy or soul. Sad really and I hope it can recover before people realise they can WFH and live on the coast and chill. Good for those smaller towns, obviously…

    Not so good for the existing local residents of those smaller towns whose rent suddenly becomes unaffordable

    Not saying its the fault of the WFH tree/sea changers - obviously its a systemic issue

    Indeed, but does it boost the economy and those renters now have higher paying jobs / prospects? There are ours and takes, but I personally hate this fear mentality of hide under your bedsheets and screw the more vulnerable of our society.

    The city is losing its identity, and Australians as they are, are understated people… let’s not see it get worse.

    That’s it, I’m going to visit a CBD massage shop!

    It pushes out the locals who are used to paying low rent due to lower income, who in turn go further country and then they in turn push out the locals, widening the gap further. It's not ideal but we don't live in ideal world.

    Which shop did you end up visiting out of curiosity?

    Cheers

When I see people driving alone and wearing masks in their cars it makes me laugh. Who are they protecting themselves in the car? Unbelievable!
    Which experts are these? From what I've read N95 masks are pretty effective. And if you suffocate wearing two masks you're doing something wrong.

    I think given the time people spend in a shop, and the way they handle there business, there is no real meaningful protection for covid

    Depends on the individual. Many colleagues haven't physically been to a grocery shop since it started in 2020.
    "Men" men shopping is similar, get in get out.

    Pubs and the like are a different kettle of fish.
    Catching public transport is in an entire league of its own.

    Basically every time you're outside of home you're at risk, but as the French say, such is life.
