Western Australia is doing well because their borders are closed while NSW is allowing people to arrive given that Sydney is the gateway to the rest of Australia. The only way the virus will set foot here is from returning travellers or airline crew once there is no local transmission in the community.

Yep. The best thing the Australian Government did was to close the borders to travelers way back in February. That is the main reason why we only have a couple of cases of covid and almost every other country in the world has thousands or even millions of cases. It also helps that we are a remote island with no land borders.
To maintain this you have to keep the borders and the quarantine hotels as tight as a virgin's pussy.
You have to let Australian citizens back in but you can limit numbers and have strict testing and quarantine procedures to stop the virus coming in and spreading in the community. The changes made yesterday to reduce numbers allowed to return and stricter quarantine and testing for travelers and flight crew are all good. Worst case scenario will be every now and then one or two get through but this can be easily traced and stopped and will not be enough to start an epidemic.
As long as the borders are controlled we have no worries in Australia and can get on with our lives just following a few basic rules - you can't catch the virus if it isn't there. And then hopefully vaccination will end the pandemic in the rest of the world and we can relax the borders. But that will be at least another 12 months away.
Australia was probably already the best country in the world, and during the pandemic it definitely is.
I do miss all those horny Japanese backpackers, and plane loads of WLs from Asia arriving every week though :cry:

But like fly in fly out workers

Cleaners, healthcare workers, police, adf who are rostered works abd isolates in the bubble for say 3 weeks. Then they have 2 weeks off in the bubble and tested. Then they have how many weeks off outside the bubble before coming back in.

They should get paid well as well.

I know we can't deny Australian citizens who for some had ample time to return but weren't sure about returning or now miss their families and want to return or it's getting worse in the countries where they reside and feel safer to be home. We have another island available. How about Christmas Island? When the virus outbreak occurred, we had many Australian citizens returning from Asia arriving on Christmas Island to do their 14 days quarantine and then returning to their community. At least anyone with the more infectious UK or South African strain won't be able to run away from hotel quarantine and into the community because they're on an island. They can still move freely and not be stuck in a hotel room for the entire 14 days.

The Christmas Island facility only has a 750 accommodation limit.

The great majority of the world's nations have been absolutely incompetent at keeping a lid on the virus. All of Europe for example, Great Britain, the whole of the ****ing US, the middle east, Indonesia, India, even Japan (who I usually don't like to hear a word against :prettiness: :D) have all duffed it.

The consequences are the virus has unnecessarily had millions more opportunities (humans) to mutate into worse forms, which it is now doing.

Therefore other country's problems are our problem.

My neighbour's daughter flew home immediately from London like within a week after she heard about the lockdown. I wonder if everyone came home then and not wait and see to the last moment things would be different.

I heard that some changed flights to get back asap but kept getting cancelled or delayed then cancelled.

Privacy is always a concern for many punters, incl myself. Just cannot imagine if a shop causes trouble eventually, and ring me to go for test and isolate.

I think I'll attend the next NSW coronovirus press conference and pin this note to the lectern before it starts:

"Gladys, take it as read from the start that you have the collective permission of all assembled here to say whatever it is you deem fit. Therefore at no further point do you need to ask us "Can I say..."

In the extreme likelihood that you keep repeatedly asking us for permission regardless, I have a loud klaxon here and will sound it every time you do. This may act helpfully as a memory aid."

So the Astro Zeneca vaccine only has a 62% efficiency. In other words you take the vaccine and still have a 4 in 10 chance of catching the virus after being exposed. Great odds that.

What turkey signed us up to that one just because we can make it here?

The other two vaccines have a 95% efficiency.

Who else wants Rolls Royce standard instead of Great Wall standard?

The Pfizer-BioNTech one is only produced in a few locations around the world and requires something like -70c while transported, not to mention we're probably relatively at the back of the queue after the UK and US etc had emergency use authorisations considering how bad things are over there.

We punters and the girls should be given the Pfizer vaccine because we are in the high risk group. So we can go back to do our normal business.

Yes our first geography class in year 7 was about North Shore and Northern Beaches how could he forget?

I like how you get triggered like a little girl over the smallest oversights. Still struggling to find any reviews you've written, and with 2800 posts on this site I'm starting to think you're a lurker who beats his meat to other peoples reviews.

lol, when I found out how much of a pain in the arse you were with a particular girl, I wanted nothing to do with you. This got confirmed by another girl later on. The 2nd girl was totally freaked out by you and had to block you.

I stopped talking to you because I found out you were an arsehole in short. And yeah, Bella asked me to put in a good word for her on the forum. She was really struggling financially during lockdown and needed all the work she could get, hardly pimping. Even that considered she couldnt bear to go and see you anymore.

Haha, she told me, it was pretty funny actually. She had no idea you were coming to the shop and had no choice bit to see you, then you couldn't go through with it, told her to stop mid-tug hahaha....mental anguish?

And yeah, something we agree on, definitely no oil painting here! Not sure why you think that would bother me!
