CV and mad panic behaviour

[kruddler]

But again, the gradient did not increase post Stage 3 lock down, even after allowing a lag.

And before masks.

Dan's fault? 100%.

Let's be frank, if the government was a corporate, and Dopey Dan the CEO, he would have been removed by the Board months ago.

He has presided over the greatest public health disaster in Australian history.

A staggering cost of 100s of lives (already, more into the future from suicide, DV, increased crime) and a massive economic cost to boot.

Need I go on?

When you are talking about the gradient increasing, surely you mean decreasing?

The gradient has decreased since stage 3, masks and with lag, stage 4 too. Perhaps not as much as you'd hope, but i said that had to do with the differences between stage 3 and 4 being minimal.

Stage 2->Stage 3 took 1 million cars off the road.
Stage 3->Stage 4 took 250k off the road.

We can not expect to see the same drop off between stages because the expected result is not the same. Its not a linear correlation.

As for the 100's of lives Dan has 'caused' from suicide and what not.....long bow there. We could do nothing like the US and cost PLENTY more than that via Covid.

If you want to accuse Dan of anything its being overly cautious.
Given the alternative, i think its acceptable.
