CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

And I don't have the slightest doubt that many many thousands DON'T have mobiles at all or phones capable of handling QR. 

In the area near where I work, the major shopping centre and one of the previous centres of a hotspot, the elderly that proliferate the centre for free air-conditioning on hot days do not even trust credit cards!

They had a crisis meeting last night because contact tracers said on Tuesday they were only able to trace 30 something of 70 something. I can't recall the actual figure but it is about 40% and it's the reason why you won't be allowed to leave your house tomorrow.

The only thing delaying the announcement is the tennis. How will people react if the tennis goes ahead and we're in lockdown?

The cynic in me states that we wont lock down during the Aus open.

Imagine the pandemonium that would follow if we did.

What is the source of the figures?

Who is the They and who reports it?

Lockdown and cancel the open and no one will come back here again lol.

Lockdown and keep playing in front of no crowds and there will be riots.

Wait a week and then lockdown and risk the numbers going up.

Quite the dilemma.

"No, you are not allowed to see your mother, no you are not allowed to open your business.  You only have 4 reasons to go out.  1 is to be an essential worker. 2. is seek health care.  3.  Buy food.  4 excercise by yourself for one hour per day.  Unless you work at the aus open as a ball kid, a player driver, an umpire, a commentator, a camera man, a gopher, security, etc etc etc, then you can go and do as you please."

Whilst no one else is looking....  QUICK all MP's flee to Canberra before the lockdown begins at midnight.

Yep, we are stopping the spread alright.  Our pandemic response is so responsible that our politicians are running off to Canberra at the request of SCOMO.

Then people wonder why someone who works in a health service is becoming cynical about the pandemic response.  Maybe it was because we were asked to setup a pop up testing clinic at a moments notice, only for OHS to kibosh it because of the way the cables were running across the floor....

Yep, some virus threat we have here.  Its so bad, that we are encouraging people to leave the state before a lockdown so they can meet at parliament, whilst potentially visiting a location dubbed a hot spot (for those not up to speed, Brunetti at Terminal 4 of Melbourne airport).

Is this my cognitive dissonance talking?  Perhaps.  Its hard not to be conflicted when facing such hypocrisy.

Why is it so hard?

It leaves us equally correct to assume the source is either imaginary or the Federal Health Minister, so I doubt anyone can take it seriously!

You know the bulk of the Federal Liberal Coalition is down on the Mornington Peninsula holding it's national conference, that is why Scomo was in Officer yesterday looking at regional building developments.
