Coronavirus - Australia

well well well
I was so very happy to not hear from this woman for so long
but look, here she fucking is, announcing a new "Covid wave" and we are moving to an amber setting. this means fuck all as it is a set of guidelines. Wear masks and shit. Fuck off, Covid is dead lady, absolutely no one cares. I will also not be getting the 5th jab (i didn't get the 4th either).
The WHO were out today warning everyone this hasn't gone away. This is despite world wide weekly deaths from Covid, as of last week, being 9,400. Just to put that number in to context. 1.3 million people die every week in the world.
Fuck off fluffybunnies, no one cares.

@mariner4life a week or 2 back we had some of our usual suspects peddling thier wares about these new 'waves' but I just jumped on stuff and I couldnt see a single article on CV on the main page or when I scrolled down a page or so....althoguh NEwshub has a story fairly high up on its page about the rates likely to rise

It's over as far as the people are concerned. No clicks means no more articles

FFS is anyone going to take this seriously?

Covid was absolutely perfect for some people
They could loudly and publicly show just how much they care for others, and what they are willing to sacrifice to help them
by literally staying at home and doing nothing. It was absolutely peak slacktivism
And that's very hard to let go of.

@mariner4life thoughts and prayers. One like = one care.

bloody covid finally caught me, was too fast for it and avoided it for over 3 years...it sucks, never needed 4 days off work/working from home before

Sure sign I had COVID/ got locked down was the spike in my posts, and the generally more angry tone of the content!

Any one else get the feeling there are people out there desperate for COVID to be a thing again?
The ABC this morning were breathlessly reporting an aged car facility in teh NT on lockdown was a third of the residents tested positive.
The devil was in the detail, with most showing no symptoms at all, and one being take to hospital for observation only.Just for some form of comparison, 194 people have died of the regular flu this year, on the back of 2,500 hospital admissions. Zero ABC reporters outside hospitals.
the cynic in me thinks there are a bunch of people hoping they can go back to being paid to stay home and do fuck all

that worked reallllly well last time

@mariner4life I do wonder how compliant the public would have been had the mandates been if you were forced to do a 40 hour work-week and had to go outside and exercise for an hour a day.

i think it might just as much be a case of a reporter trying to get clicks, my grandma had her home "lockdown" before and after COVID when they had gastro or the flu rolling through them...ie just no visitors for a while...but wasnt in the news
COVID is just on that list of illnesses now...but you can test for it so can give it a name rather than just "something going around"

@mariner4life in saying that though...i have had people in my team tell me they dont want to come back to the office because when they work from home they can cook, and do washing, take breaks, go for a run etc...ie...not fucking working

@voodoo i'll send up your bat signal on this one
i hate work from home. Home is for home, not work. I also lack the self discipline. I would be even less productive than i am here.
The WFH thing is a fucking nightmare from a management perspective. I fucking hate it. And it's making people even more shut in
Fucking COVID
