They don't, especially those returned traveller ones you forgot about.

But didn't Scomo stop the boats? :o ;D

Much of that previous reporting is based on political claims, I'm not sure how much of any of it can be trusted, and the current release of science data just proves how rubbery the political reporting can be.

Qld claimed it had just a handful of cases, and the right wing media types lapped it up as a failure of the south somehow distorting that into proof the lockdowns do not work, we now know that stellar Qld performance was based on creative accounting!

It seems out Qld took a Three-Wise-Monkeys approach to COVID management, don't test and you won't find!

For me the more important result of this is the impact of environment on the pandemic, it must surely tell us something, perhaps something that those living in the tropics already know!

Just a few weeks back the Fed Bureaucrats handed out Australia Day gongs to the likes of Palaszczuk's crew for how well they "managed" COVID, now it comes out that what they were really good at, better than others, is cooking the books to make things look better than they actually were!

Surely you didn't expect the truth out of her lying mouth?

I'm not sure what to expect, but the insiders would know the truth and yet people are being given knighthoods based on performance assessments was built on lies!

It devalues the gongs, and makes it appear more like a bit of back scratching, you lie for me I gong you!

This probably comes under the heading of panic behavior rather than CoVid, went to my local Coles and all the toilet paper was again missing on mass which is nothing new in these times but also went to the produce section and found all the bags of salad, mixed salad, spinach, rocket etc all gone as well. Cabbage was another green veg conspicuous by its absence, only the expensive fresh lettuce remained all be it in short supply.
I wonder if people in Ukraine behave this way or is it just our culture?....seems with the floods and rain that ruined the crops in Aus its also stopped replanting so this should go on for a while. Add the rising cost of fuel and energy and its going to be a long year ahead as well as with supply and demand issues with overseas products.

I'm very cynical, I've already heard stories this morning of people reselling to metropolitan restaurants over last weekend, doing an Arthur Daley with a box of greens! One of those wax coated cardboard boxes full of Iceberg lettuce for $120!

Our local supermarket was selling lettuce for $15/head.

We have our own veggie garden. We usually plant various types of lettuce, cherry tomato's, cucumber etc. For whatever reason we neglected it over the past 6 months. We have no lettuce, when normally there is too much. We could've paid off our mortgage with the prices its going for currently!

I was a Minder fan so I appreciate the analogy...nothing surprises about enterprising opportunists.
