A bit slow to report his, the changes started happening 3 or 4 weeks back, but once 20 and 30 year fit and healthy types started dying or being severely disabled by suffering long term effects it was all over for this immunity strategy. Once it became the sons and daughters of the decision makers some who were previous COVID deniers, attitudes changed!

The nail on naysayers and deniers completely ignore the long term symptoms of many COVID survivors, it's like the deniers can only see or understand two binary states in complete ignorance of the middle ground, you live or you die in their eyes!

While not all people suffer severe or long term effects, living through COVID is not like being guaranteed to survive in full health, there is nothing further from the truth! It looks like for every person that dies, there is at least another one who will live with long term effects, like loss of limb control or locomotion, incontinence, liver, heart disease, lung disease or mental impairment.

I understand that Sweden has constitutional provisions that won't allow them to impose lockdown measures; it has to be voluntary.

While Sweden has done poorly in comparison to their neighbours, their results are still considerably better than Belgium, the UK and the USA.  It seems that ethnic Swedes are used self-isolating and complying with requests from Government.  More recent immigrants don't have the same cultural attributes and, anecdotally at least, are bearing the brunt of COVID.

BTW, an acquaintance of mine in the UK spent 90 days in hospital and 75 of those in a coma after contracting COVID.  I suspect that his quality of life will be much poorer for the experience.

But the Kiwis are playing Pakistan ... if the latter can get out of quarantine ?

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour - Mav - 12-06-2020

Interesting to see that it was a police officer in Sydney who allowed the German tourists to fly out to Melbourne. Admittedly, s/he was on the 2nd day on the job but how many days on the job would you need to understand that putting a couple of possibly infected people in a plane might not be a good idea? Seems that it’s hard for people to resist sob stories or charming pleas. They need the Little Brittain “The computer says no” woman.

Seen some ugly behaviour about today, mask deniers out and about making mask wearers feel uncomfortable.

It's not the mask deniers fault, they are thin brained types who associate masks as the root of all evil and the primary cause of their recent problems, they can't see a virus but they can see a mask. Wink

It's people like Trump that are to blame, he's burning the planet with his rhetoric, but the GOP are too scared to stop him even when it seems he is now hurting the GOP's senate election chances.

One thing that seems to have flown over the heads of the media, is Trump's recent signing of the bills relating to Chinese ownership. It's being talked up as a positive which it probably is, if it gets implemented, but nobody is asking why now, what barrier was removed that stopped Trump signing this order sooner, one made of cash I presume!

We wont be wearing them anymore shortly anyway.

FWIW, there is no danger of transmission currently.  This may change very quickly, and I am betting that the Government actually want it to occur given this gives them a chance to wipe the egg off their faces for hotel quarantine.

The current situation has nothing to do with COVID, it's a behavioural issue.

The "We" part is a little presumptuous, there will be some individuals who will want to wear masks forever more just like the public do in much of Asia now. They should be free to do so without abuse, it's like choosing to be vegan and harms nobody!

The naysayers are claiming the removal of restrictions are a vindication, and that the falling numbers are also a vindication, proof that the restrictions were never needed. It's a completely back to front perspective, they completely fall to associate the falling infection rate and removal of masks as a result of the restrictions.

I saw great irony in the person who has probably rallied against wearing of masks as a restriction of liberty, rallying against peoples freedom of choice to wear a mask!

Absolutely LP.  I reckon the 'sheeple' are the anti-maskers.

It was interesting listening to Norman Swann on the wireless this morning.  We're not out of the woods yet.  So much depends on people doing the right thing ... as well as vaccinations being available and working as intended.

BTW, Dr Swann reckons the next pandemic will be an influenza virus - something to look forward to  :Smile

Going to have trouble convincing health workers to have the first up vaccine, quite a few nurses and hospital staff baulking at being the initial test lab rats. Some surveys were sent out and a lot came back as a No Thanks but happy to receive later
I think the UK initial distribution and side effects etc will have a large bearing on the take up here in Aus.
Most Hospitals are expecting another wave in winter and staffing requirements are already being discussed and leave applicants told there are no guarantees of being granted leave.
Some scary reading here...https://au.yahoo.com/news/india-hundreds-infected-mysterious-deadly-illness-040435270.html..
We dont want any tourists for a long while, bad enough with those two Germans here in Aus being allowed to travel by a rookie police officer with 2 days experience on the job..
