You nailed it, GTC, with that word, 'respect' or the lack of it.
And the Fluffy One is right on when he talks of cavalier attitudes. Well, there's a helluva wake up call being issued to those who lack respect and are pregnant with entitlement - take careful note, you people who are growing the c0ckhead ranks, it can all be snatched from you in a heartbeat. Well now that I've depressed myself, think I'll enjoy a pie and watch the footy...?

The sequitur to such disregard for law and order can often be totalitarian government.

In the "new world" don't expect too much sympathy for organizations such as extinction rebellion.

The only thing I expect from Extinction Rebellion et al is the attempted destruction of society as we know it.

Sabotage derails progress as much as it derails a marauder.
There is no progress to be found in widespread anarchy.

Behind the paywall.
In other news as far as a strategy goes the weakest part of any system is people.
For me, the most culpable person is the returned traveller who spread coronavirus around and thumbed their nose at quarantine. The next culpable is the person that allowed it to happen and actively participated.
Ive heard a variety of rhetoric around this virus from the get go. If anyone spread anything around stating only the elderly would die, or only .001 percent of the population would die from this, and its just virus, then you too are at fault.
Its that mentality that has brought us to where we are today.

A kid at the kinder our daughter goes to tested positive two weeks ago (28/7). We just got our text from DHHS saying we need to isolate until 12/7 (yes - before the test - we are assuming they mean 12/8) and have a test on or after 8/7 (we are assuming they mean 7 August).
Good thing we were proactive and told families that were going that they should get tested. As for what to do about a deep clean - that's a debacle - Call DHHS - no call DET - no Call DHHS...
(Kid is fine, all that have been tested that I know of are negative)
