It means that the govt is monitoring to sewerage system to see if they can get the drop on potential outbreaks before they Go Viral :clint:

They've picked up viral traces in the waste system but aren't too concerned about it as someone who was infected with covid - and quarantined until safe to be released - is living in the catchment area that is testing positive for covid.

It's kind of like how they test for cocaine in the Easter Suburbs but it's OK for people there to drive and not get tested for coke as they're not high now that was Friday night and they have to get to an important meeting with the developers who fund the ALP / LNP through back channels now so shut the gently caress up about it already.

new heights in incompetance. surely aged care workers should be in the same cohort as airport/hospital staff?

quote:

https://www.theguardian.com/austral...dents-opted-out

there were 29 aged care facilities in the state that had not yet received their first dose of the Covid vaccine, while 569 facilities had received just one dose. Hours later, the federal health minister, Greg Hunt, revealed the number yet to receive their first doses had shrunk to 16 homes. Across the country, Hunt later told the ABC, there were 74 facilities still to be vaccinated prior to Thursday.

can someone explain numbers to me

It was good and the liberal student protesters deserved it.

The stern approach from the ccp to the protests needs to be taken in the context of the collapse of communist states around the world to similar cia backed colour revolutions

A family of three also snuck away and flew to New Zealand. So far they've tested negative.

quote:

Three Melbourne residents have been caught trying to get into New Zealand during Victoria's coronavirus lockdown.

Australia and New Zealand still have a travel bubble arrangement in place, but travel from Victoria was "paused" last month after the latest coronavirus outbreak began.

New Zealand director general of health Ashley Bloomfield, told a press conference on Wednesday that the three drove from Melbourne to Sydney and then flew to Auckland last week.

The NZ Herald reported they were going to attend a funeral and they would have to pay for their quarantine stay.

"Those three people were identified when they arrived and were immediately transferred to a managed isolation facility in Auckland where they will remain for a 14-day period," Dr Bloomfield said.

He said they had all returned negative "day zero" tests.

The student quarantine system, including travel costs, accommodation and security, will be financed by the university sector, but Mr Perrottet said whether students were out of pocket for flights would be up to individual universities.
