It's chicks that are affected mostly. guys can shake it off but chicks pat things dry when they pee and that's several times a day.

At the time I think some overseas countries were reporting shortage of toilet rolls, so it may have been why the minister used it as an example. If in doubt, always blame overseas.

No its not that, people put a couple on their sandwiches when they run out of cheese slices

Nah..tassie's different, they got neck tatts and piercings and urinals in the ladies room...so I heard...so all good.

It's all about equality so installing urinals in all toilets now....win..win...win

Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting.

43 new cases for Australia and no deaths so the CMR is 2.984%.

No cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 0.953% and active cases 21.

The UK had a lower 14,623 cases yesterday and lower 11 deaths.

A lower 6,698 new cases in the USA yesterday and lower 145 deaths sees CMR at 1.796%.

Other notable points: (weekend reporting)

Chamois?

[.:4:.]

Yesterday a mate of mine was telling me he went to woolies, the lady infront of him at the checkout was creating a scene when told 1x24 pack of bog rolls. She was doomsday prepping and had years worth in the trolley. So yeah, people still go a bit troppo.
Anyhow, with the new sydney lockdown rules service nsw email me about restrictions. I always forward said emails to my mum. So like a lot of people, and understandibly, she doesnt check her emails daily. So i called her yesterday and she was out and about. So she says she wasnt in a red zone. So i asked her to read the restrictions as all sydney is a red zone. So that ruined a few of her plans for the next few days.
But it all just really shows that even after a long time the odd few defiant people can 'ruin' it for a lot of people. And yes, my mum does follow the rules.

This is an interesting observation.

Vaccinated party-goers avoided virus, NSW Gov says
The NSW Government says the highly contagious Delta strain of COVID-19 infected everyone who attended a Sydney birthday party except for the six people who were vaccinated.

24 of the 30 attendees of the West Hoxton party, and many of their household contacts, have all tested positive for COVID-19.

Here's NSW health minister Brad Hazzard from earlier today:

"To emphasise just how important vaccinations are … not one of those 24 people were vaccinated.

"I can also advise that six health workers who attended the party, who were fully vaccinated, not one of those people has been infected.

"Obviously, it's an unfolding situation … but the early and strong indication from that party are if you're vaccinated you are much more likely to not be infected with COVID-19.

"Short message is, get vaccinated."

Maybe that's one to strike off the list above, Trev?

Not sure I believe that, I am learning to not believe very much of what Politicians or the Main Stream Media (MSM) says - they all bull-**** and spin-doctor far too much for me

[Trevor 57]

No-one seems to be able to answer my question

Of the 910 people who have died in Australia, how many died WITH the virus and how many died BECAUSE of the virus?

There is a BIG difference

A guy with a beard holding a sign is much more believable.

it is a meme - it is meant to be sarcastic - you do know what that means right?

Unless of course the man holding has his own website, has a Doctorate from some African country, is a self-proclaimed medical expert - then he would be believable right?

with (you can die with the disease, but the disease did not cause the death e.g. you died of a heart attack that is not related to COVID, but you had the virus)

or

because of (the disease caused your death e.g respiratory failure due to the disease)


Surely you cant be that silly you can't understand the difference - oh hang on . . . . . . . . .

I know what a meme is. They are meant to be funny. That is just sad...

I bet you I am far sillier than you’ve anticipated.

They were reported as Covid deaths. How will you prove otherwise?

[Trevor 57]

not saying I can prove anything, you are missing the point - it is all spin-doctoring

They should report the FACTS, with or because of

You carry on a bit, but my writing and words are pretty simple, I am sorry if you struggle with that, or you think I am saying something other than what I am saying - this problem lies with you, not me

Well they have reported the facts as far as they are aware. 910 "of". You've just admitted that you can't prove otherwise...

Hey, do you know a guy called Tickford?

Where is old donkey boy? See he hasn't been on since 06/06 - did he get an enforced sabbatical for being an ***?

You will have to contact the coroners or relatives; it will be written on their death certificates.

I have posted this information several times in this thread Trev and it's very easy to find on the net if you look.

I gave it a thumbs up cos I saw you were game enough to take the jab. Missed the "meme". You can't exactly do the stuff on the list when only 3% is vaccinated. Try 60-70%....

Does sound a bit special, but to pull off this "bs" a lot of non government officials would need to be in on it?

MSM.....this story is too nice for them to play along. Not enough outrage. Pretty sure they would be all over it like a rash if it was fake.
