Wow, just saw a video of that minister. He don't look too good. Wonder how many will get it from that superspreader dinner event.

I admire Gladys’ nod to ‘40s French fashion for her presser moment of “Je Ne Regrette Rien”.
…Aujourd'hui
Ça commence avec toi

My neck of suburbia seems little different today; the lockdown - what lockdown?

To pay the GSS CTs their due, they have linked every case so far except Eddie Munster Zeke at the Campbeltown daycare centre. Problem is that the Delta zekes are 3 days ahead of them, so they had to lock it down to catch up.

Honestly WTF is it with the run on the bog roll every time? I get if you're locked down you will be at home more but how much do people actually **** they have to stock up this much? Must be because it is on company time

Nah....

Working from home, trying to maximise their deductions before the end of FY.

I'm sure the ATO doesn't have a specific ruling on how much one would use to work out their claim

Human psychology. If you can figure it out then you can make a motza. I think it started when we had the first lock down, and one of the ministers said something along the lines of "there is no need to go panic buy essentials, such as toilet rolls etc etc"..so guess what everyone did? At the time I think some overseas countries were reporting shortage of toilet rolls, so it may have been why the minister used it as an example. If in doubt, always blame overseas.

You gotta build up to that **** though, going from Quilton Gold 4 Ply to paper bark is not recommended at all

It's chicks that are affected mostly. guys can shake it off but chicks pat things dry when they pee and that's several times a day.

Data valid as at 00:00 GMT June 27th, 2021.

Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting.

43 new cases for Australia and no deaths so the CMR is 2.984%.

No cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 0.953% and active cases 21.

The UK had a lower 14,623 cases yesterday and lower 11 deaths.

A lower 6,698 new cases in the USA yesterday and lower 145 deaths sees CMR at 1.796%.

Other notable points: (weekend reporting)

Liberia (207);
Cuba (2,698); and
Indonesia (21,342)

... recorded new daily highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day.

No countries move above the 90th percentile for the 10 day period and Paraguay drops below.

Yesterday a mate of mine was telling me he went to woolies, the lady infront of him at the checkout was creating a scene when told 1x24 pack of bog rolls. She was doomsday prepping and had years worth in the trolley. So yeah, people still go a bit troppo.
Anyhow, with the new sydney lockdown rules service nsw email me about restrictions. I always forward said emails to my mum. So like a lot of people, and understandibly, she doesnt check her emails daily. So i called her yesterday and she was out and about. So she says she wasnt in a red zone. So i asked her to read the restrictions as all sydney is a red zone. So that ruined a few of her plans for the next few days.
But it all just really shows that even after a long time the odd few defiant people can 'ruin' it for a lot of people. And yes, my mum does follow the rules.

This is an interesting observation.

Vaccinated party-goers avoided virus, NSW Gov says
The NSW Government says the highly contagious Delta strain of COVID-19 infected everyone who attended a Sydney birthday party except for the six people who were vaccinated.

24 of the 30 attendees of the West Hoxton party, and many of their household contacts, have all tested positive for COVID-19.

Here's NSW health minister Brad Hazzard from earlier today:

"To emphasise just how important vaccinations are … not one of those 24 people were vaccinated.

"I can also advise that six health workers who attended the party, who were fully vaccinated, not one of those people has been infected.

"Obviously, it's an unfolding situation … but the early and strong indication from that party are if you're vaccinated you are much more likely to not be infected with COVID-19.

"Short message is, get vaccinated."

Maybe that's one to strike off the list above, Trev?

A guy with a beard holding a sign is much more believable.

it is a meme - it is meant to be sarcastic - you do know what that means right?

Unless of course the man holding has his own website, has a Doctorate from some African country, is a self-proclaimed medical expert - then he would be believable right?
