People have lives to lead, and im pretty confident they don't believe they were sick or infected.
Totally agree, people do have lives to lead and have to move house from time to time... Mrs Baggers and I moved house during our last lockdown - we had to move because the place was sold and the new owners needed a place to live!!! Important to note that our removalists adhered to all C19 protocols - masks and regular hand cleaning with alcohol based products (no, not vodka!!!). And the cleaners who prepared the place for the newbies also adhered to all C19 protocols... even making sure we weren't present at the time of the clean. Everyone was a team player. We were able to travel freely toward sold home and new home, but, again, adhered to all C19 protocols.
I repeat that my ire was raised when it was reported that the removalists in questions were uncooperative when questioned and did not adhere to appropriate C19 protocols. It aint hard to be a team player, and such an attitude is actually the 'Aussie spirit', which I respect and admire.

Nothing wrong with taking exception to things, I just think we need a bit more compassion as a society.

Thankfully, 373 of the 377 deaths are mere coincidence. Phew.
Plus, a few highlights:
1. 83 cases of TTS (incl. 32 Tier 1 clots in strange places)
2. 31 cases of ITP
3. 52 cases of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)!!!!
4. 50 cases of myocarditis (heart inflammation) and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart membrane).
As they say in the movies, collateral damage! 373?....Thats a lot of underlying causes.....

Some more detailed advice for those who may have attended
Quote:Victorian Department of Health
39m ·
Were you at the MCG on Saturday afternoon for the Carlton v Geelong game?
Due to transmission that has occurred within the Members’ Reserve, our public health teams are updating the public health advice for this exposure site.
TIER 1 UPDATE – PERCY BEAMES
The Percy Beames Bar on Level 2 of the Members’ Reserve is now a Tier 1 exposure site between 4:00 and 4:30pm, and between 5:20 and 5:50pm, on Saturday 10 July.
If you were at this bar during any of those times, you must immediately isolate, get a test, and quarantine for 14 days following the exposure. Contact us at 1300 651 160.
TIER 2 UPDATE – ALL AREAS
All sections of the Members Reserve between the hours of 4:00pm and 8:00pm on Saturday 10 July – not just Level 2 – is now a Tier 2 exposure site. If you were in the Members’ Reserve in those times, immediately isolate, get a test, and stay isolated until you receive a negative result.
Some people within the Members’ Reserve who we have subsequently identified as coming into close contact with a confirmed case will also be messaged directly from the Department and be instructed to quarantine for 14 days.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT REMINDER
Did you catch PT to and from the game?
The Route 70 tram departing Flinders St/Swanston St at 3:46pm and arriving at the MCG at 3:53pm is a Tier 1 exposure site.
If you were on this tram, you must immediately isolate, get a test, and quarantine for 14 days following the exposure – and contact us at 1300 651 160. If you are unsure, contact us and get a test.
The train after the game from Jolimont Station to Flinders St – departing 7:13pm and arriving 7:20pm – is a Tier 2 exposure site. So is Jolimont Station from 7:05. If you were on the train or platform in those times, immediately isolate, get a test, and stay isolated until you receive a negative result. If you are unsure, get tested.
YOUNG AND JACKSON REMINDER
Did you have a drink before the game?
Young and Jackson, at the corner of Flinders and Swanston St, between 2:40pm and 4:10pm on 10 July, is a Tier 1 exposure site.
If you were there during any of this time, you must immediately isolate, get a test, and quarantine for 14 days following the exposure. Contact us at 1300 651 160.

Moreover, at a bigger picture level, viruses do what viruses do (i.e. spread).....there's always going to be 'escape'.
To think otherwise is fantasy.

My guesstimate - these vaccines will be stopped within 2-3 months. Globally.
Too much collateral damage.

Too much collateral damage. Tend to agree some will be removed from use and a lot will depend on data coming out of countries like England and the USA where they have a bigger sample size of effectiveness vs new strains vs side effects.
They are talking about having 3rd booster shots here for AstraZ given they want to cut the waiting time down between the 1st and 2nd shots now we have outbreaks, not sure if the public will embrace all that given the slow take up already and a preference for Pfizer among many.
