Ah this lockdown for the social housing towers is pretty awful. I feel bad for everyone involved. 500 police per shift, police on every floor, every staircase entrance. You can't leave for five days straight. These are our most vulnerable who need a lot of support and are now being locked in for no fuck up of theirs. Hope it all goes well but there will be conflict.

TT bubble update: Jacinda waiting for ScoMo to advise whether Australia wants to go state by state (in which case ATM Queensland OK, Victoria not but how does Aus prevent someone from Vic transiting Brisbane in order to get that skiing holiday?) or wait for all states to get community transmission back under control & put good screening processes in place. Your Tourism Minister has been quoted as saying September is feasible.

It's horrendous. Some of the towers they have locked down have zero cases of COVID-19.

And now Andrews has put nine housing commission towers containing 3000 people under a lockdown level unknown outside of communist China. (Tim Blair)
Surely Australians must object to this draconian lockdown. A far better alternative would be to isolate those who have the virus.
Edit: I should have said "send to hospital" not "isolate", which sounds just as oppressive as Andrews' policy.

Wait a second..........

People who test positive for COVID-19 shouldn’t isolate, and they should all be sent to hospital?

lol@ that twit with the vanity plate

I really have sent some confusing messages! I'll try again.
A moment's thought has me saying "No armed forces standing guard over locked down homes" and "Treat bad cases of COVID19 at hospital."
Self-isolation to be the option for people who test positive.
In summary, I am very worried about our easy acceptance of force to put people into home detention. Especially when many of those people don't have the virus.

Oh well. Here we go again. My gym motivation was starting to drop anyway and I hadn't booked our road trip for next month yet. At least we had dinner booked for tonight. I think I'll be doing my best to maximise their profits.

Anyone who books a security firm to do anything responsible is a moron. Spending five minutes with the owners of one would tell you that. Good one Dan!

New research suggests the virus has mutated & may now be three- to six times as infectious now as six months ago without necessarily being more lethal. Makes sense given positive test results % in the US has pretty much doubled (& in some States tripled or even quadrupled) in recent weeks but fatalities have either plateaued somewhat or only slightly increased in percentage terms. I note that Fauci says he thinks ".....the data is showing that there is a single mutation that actually makes the virus be able to replicate better........"

137,400 dead in America, hurtling towards 140k and not a word of sense on the subject from the orange idiot, other than a request from the tooth fairy for it to "just disappear". Tragic.

The goal of any virus is to propagate, that is to be highly infectious, but not kill the host

If it is really effective at killing the host, then it dies out too

And what could he have done? All he could do was close the borders (and when he did he was declared to be "racist") and provide resources. No state went without. But he has no power to enforce a specific approach on any state except by refusing to provide resources without compliance and how do you think that would have gone?

Operational control is done by the governors, they are the one who sent infected elderly back to care homes - and that is 50% of the deaths came from.

Morrison has the same issues in Aus, he ain't a dictator and the Premiers have operational control

^^^^^^that totally ignores his behaviour throughout the year.
