Round 6. " BREAKING NEWS Thursday, 5 August 2021 Victoria’s public health officials are currently in talks with the Andrews government about new, unlinked COVID-19 cases that could trigger additional restrictions and possibly Victorias 6th lockdown. All options, including a potential lockdown, are being considered, but no decisions have yet been made as officials gather information about the new cases, according to sources. Concerns are held after an infected teacher at Al-Taqwa College, who was announced as a positive case last night, may have spawned cases in the several days they were infectious in the Victorian community. Any possible restriction will not be mentioned at the looming press conference." Another minimum of 7 days lockdown.... So over it. Bloody Muslim communities again We've got to cut the bullshit, lock the borders down and when the dust settles and the smoke clears, maybe sometime next decade we open back up to these third world shitholes.

So over this, it's making a mess of my job and my mental health is struggling like everyone's. I wrote a heap of stuff on this post, about how this scumbag is killing this state and the country is run by an absolute doofus. I chose to start over, as no-one needs to hear it. It doesn't help. It's bullshit. It sucks and I'm so fucking tired by all of this. I've never been so exhausted in my life. Look after yourself INCY, if not for yourself, but for your family.

Likewise so very tired. Plus the whole Covid-19 thing is causing immense problems to my business... Plenty of work, just can't get any of it delivered or installed. People just scream at you as if this is all of your making.
So very very weary.

Jesus, I don't think I could take another lockdown. We're opening up completely in Wales this Saturday even though cases in circulation are quite high, banking on the >90% vaccine uptake rate slowing growth rate. England opened up two weeks ago and has seen cases go down, and may be approaching herd immunity. Is it supply in Australia or are people not willing to take it?

Because of the blood clot issues in an extreme minority of cases AZ is only recommended for over 60s... Which is nuts, and it's also the only vaccine manufactured locally and we have heaps, but the media driven scare campaign means nobody wants it... And we don't have much of anything else.

It would fill iNCY schadenfrauden heart that HHH's stint in NXT failed so badly Vince demoted him and openly buries any of his stars on Monday Night Raw after disgracing him in their fight against AEW.

US moving to lockdowns for the unvaccinated, but with no checking vaccination status, really an empty lockdown. Austin just enacted it though.

Because with every lockdown, it sends everyone into the supermarkets. Hoards of people with little care for social distancing and it will continue for the extent of the lockdown. The key is to lockdown the postcodes, potentially the surrounding areas as well to eliminate the spread. Locking down businesses and not allowing children to go to school in regional Victoria with no risk or reported cases is mind boggling.

" www.google.com/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/12437584The same school, where the principal declared ISIS was a western plot. These guys are doing wonders for multiculturalism.

In US COVID hotspots healthcare workers are walking out of their jobs now sick of the low pay, long hours and abuse they get. Since the jobs are understaffed even outside of the pandemic, it is not beds or ventilators but staff that is limited the US's ability to treat.

Turns out, Andrews reason for locking down all of Victoria was based on misinformation. Who would have thought. www.sheppnews.com.au/news/2021/08/06/4835373/six-new-cases-in-victoria-on-first-day-of-lockdown?fbclid=IwAR3Rvtzzn8szuhyLoTAF56TOS8eIg0c96So0OUNDhQ5z5nHJ-YfkUXT8NPkThe dropkick NSW health minister has just announced vaccines for HSC students and likened the opportunity to get vaccinated to the efforts of the Olympic athletes, and muttered " Go for Gold " several times in a 5 minute speech. Absolutely tone-deaf.

Well US is nearing the end of COVID. Only 20% of the population in projections are unvaccinated or non-recovered. Nearly the entire population has antibodies at this part and by the end of delta only a small amount of people will still be able to get infected for the first time.

I'm reaching my wits end. The selfishness of people has been driving me nuts, but it's reached an all-time high here in BC and I'm fucking fed up. Anyone that gets in my face in the coming weeks is going to get a throat punch.
We've had to cancel our plans for my son's birthday party due to increasing restrictions. We had a room booked at one of those fun play places that has like arcade games and rock climbing and all that shit. We're still going to have a party, but we've moved it to the beach, which is a lot less exciting for a 6 year old.
Tourists refuse to go home and are continuing to spread COVID throughout the Okanagan valley, and where I live (Kelowna) is the epicentre and therefore is spiking like crazy. To add to this, wildfires in the area have spread and are out of control, and many surrounding towns have had to evacuate and come here, but there's nowhere for them to stay because the hotels are all full of tourists. Government officials have asked for anyone that doesn't live here to go home, and people are just refusing, saying they're entitled to their vacation.
I'm working out of town for 3 of the next 4 weeks and I honestly can't fucking wait. I really don't like it here right now.

In Melbourne they have finally opened up AZ to anyone over 18. This means that anyone who wants to be vaccinated, absolutely can be. Like RT I am at my wits end. The media keeps talking about a lack of vaccine being the problem. On Saturday I logged into the website and booked my wife (with her blessing) in for a Pfizer vaccine on Saturday this week. There were so many appointments available. Telling people that there are no appointments, just stops them logging in, which is beyond reckless.

It's baffling to me the number of developed countries that are being run by morons who let this kind of thing happen, or actively encourage it. The biggest culprit is south of here and tomorrow we start letting vaccinated Americans enter Canada. So our numbers will continue to go up because COVID is spreading like wildfire down there and you can still carry it even when vaccinated. Really psyched about the coming weeks.

"Vaccinated" Americans. A card is like $5 bucks online for 50 and no one verifies them. Until like two months back could get them on Amazon with two day shipping. For $20 there are people who will submit false documents to the CDC and trash a two vaccine doses. Believed the US will allow COVID to revive worldwide once "vaccinated" tourism reopens. Then again is it really fair for countries like Australia to discriminate against Americans who do not want to experiment on themselves by putting chemicals into their body? Should just let Americans freely travel the world without needing things like COVID tests or vaccines.

It's not possible to eliminate a coronavirus, we are just going to have to suck it up and treat it like the flu... Which vaccinated people die from every year

LMAO, US companies are fucking done with anti-vax people. Major companies are going to start charging $50 a week in health charges to those who refuse vaccination, akin to the tobacco use charges they already charge to offset the rising insurance costs. This is gonna get fun. People can have their freedom, but it will cost them.

Which vaccinated people die from every year The good news is we're still one of the best in the world for vaccine doses. 80% of the country has one shot and 64% has both. We're plateauing but that's expected, and considering 95%+ of new cases are unvaccinated or 1 shot people, we don't have a lot to worry about. My main concern is my kids at this point because they're too young to get vaccinated. Variants seem to be concerning. Reports of kids getting bad symptoms are increasing. Hospitals are filling up again and people that don't have COVID and need a bed are going to face problems again. This one is a little more selfish but I'm also sad that my kids are facing another year of school that is not normal. They were psyched that they wouldn't have to wear masks anymore, have normal recess, etc. Because our area has had a massive spike our school district will probably leave restrictions in place to at least start the year. I feel for them.
