Reckon we might get a cutback season, I'd expect some form of mild lockdown measures to be employed by the state government, power distribution companies are running skeleton crews now so they dont get everyone sick at once and even temperature testing the distribution switch staff who are a small but highly trained group, without them there would be no power.
We have a wedding to attend in three weeks with a group of about 200 expected, the reception management have advised the
bride and groom they might have to make other arrangements.

Bunnings sell commercial Toilet paper in large rolls, buy a box of that and you will be covered for 6-12 months.
Supplies dwindling however and no re-stocking..

If sporting events are being closed then surely public transport and schools which are the worst places for spreading viruses should be too.

Going to happen with schools IMO, my son is a primary teacher and its already an item for discussion with home based curriculum on the drawing board.

Just had a good chat with my local pharmacist, who usually stocks bog rolls, and he reckons that there is plenty of profiteering going on with the dunny rolls through e-Bay etc AND being sent to China ...a la kiddies formula.

For sure, Ebay has ridiculous ads for toilet paper and current affair had this person of international extraction selling Toilet paper for $2K for a large multipack.

European schools being closed on mass in different countries, cant be too long before its the same here, Flight Centre closing 100 stores, going to be unemployment problems here in Aus.

Westfarmers buy on price, the cheap stuff from China, China re-opened all it's industry yesterday, but there will be weeks of backlog and even the shipping lead-time is about 4-6 weeks.

If a worker gets COVID-19 at Kimberley Clarke, Asaleo or The Sorbent they'll have no choice but to close those factories!

I know in some of the big organisations/companies there has been talk of having "virus shifts", because form most workers it's just a runny nose that won;t stop them working, so they'll lump them altogether into contaminated strike-teams and have them work together with fogging procedures in-between shifts. Let's wait and see that go wrong!

Interesting isn't it, the reaction from The Rage and News Ltd, socialists want anarchy, News Ltd wants profit and control, or perhaps even Rupert preservation?

Trump closes the borders, but they already have COVID-19 there, they'll start shooting kids who get too close to the President soon! Those really in need of protection are the elderly with respiratory conditions, not healthy school kids.

Last year there was a very sad story, a mother was a germaphobe who never let her little girl get dirty or socialise with a kid who had a runny nose, she kept the house sterilized and disinfected. At 13 the girl caught and died from the flu! The point is kids will get COVID-19 eventually, and getting it in their youth gives them long term resistance to COVID-19 and potentially other related strains of coronavirus. Shielding them too much now might not be doing the right thing for them long term, they might escape a COVID-19 infection, but what about the next one, and there will be a next one there is no doubt about that?

Most people, the vast majority get a sore throat and runny nose, some get a headache and fever, some get a headache and fever just from reading the papers, the over the top reaction from the trivially inflicted floods the wards with people who do not need to be there, locking away hospital beds for the few people who really need them, those who have a severe reaction or pre-existing condition.

Even on the "Death Ships" as the media now call them, only about 50% of people got COVID-19, despite being trapped in that confined and infected space serviced by a handful of equally infected staff, and only a fraction of that 50% needed any critical care. What really putting the wind up the politicians and media types is this, the people in control in those positions of power are old like me, and they are more susceptible to complications like pneumonia than their children or grandchildren. Most of the decision makers are independently wealthy, they don't have to worry about not having a job next week or next month!

We are such a selfish race, as shown by the bog roll debacle, and gutless as well!
