I know quite a few guys and girls for that matter that have businesses dependent on pubs and clubs. For the most part, their businesses got locked down mid-March.Quote:

No, pubs and clubs reopening in some capacity not business overall back to normal. BTW, it will be a new 'normal'Quote:

There's several treatments being tested and the best cases for rapid introduction is a repurposed treatment for some indication that the treatment is already approved. Then the safety tests are mostly already completed they just need to determine that the effective dose is also safe.
Up 25%....in what context? All the data I have seen this morning is saying infection rates are dropping daily.Quote:

Then try to do a cost analysis against it. We are killing ants with steamrollers. Still, cannot change the noise. As an aside. My bet will be Tuesday after Queens Birthday weekend. Lib's are getting heart pulpations already about the costs involved. ATO will need its own respirators soon. Still don't know why we are dodging all the bad shit. If we had Italy, Spain, France, Turkey, Iran or UK daily numbers here we would be hiding under our beds. Stay well and stay safe 🙃Quote:

Overnight 4375 and 711 deaths. Both countries have mortality to infection rates in excess of 10%. UK went into full lockdown 23 March which is just before us. Thank whoever you like but I am happy to be an Australian today🤞🤞
39 to 49 on the daily NSW numbers.Quote:

But I think given the mandatory quarantine now we should be excluding any overseas cases.
What really matters is community transmission
