I dont know if people are still milking it, or, they are showing evidence but the office in town is being hit again and the same in Adelaide. attendance would be <50%.....business are getting hammered and there is only so long they can hold on too.
Im sure I heard even Dan Andrews stating and which point do we just get one with it! Why iso for 7 days when pretty much everyone is vaxxed? It has to end somewhere,,,in saying that I still havent had a booster but I would still be within the 3 month period of getting it so will assess next month. I forsee eventually it being rolled into the definition of "the flu". Which I sure will trigger people on both sides of this argument for the past couple of years...but we cant do this for ever.

For so long as people can milk it for repeated $750 bunts, Covid’s likely to be a serious problem in some domains…
Had a chuckle at how many of WH’s vaccine list are in my “acquired immunity” category. |

That's the point. Most people are happy to get vaccines that have proven to be pretty safe over decades. They're more hesitant when someone was created last year in a hurry. I don't think I've met many people who are anti tetanus and whooping cough vaccinations. Most people don't realise you should be getting your Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Whooping Cough booster every 10 years. I bet a lot of people let that one expire |

I’d like to know why so many people are again being hospitalised with covid/flu.
It seems the campaign of a year ago to support recovery from moderate illnesses at home, has been discarded in favour of advice to get admitted - leaving hospital staff as once again, the meat in the sandwich. |

It would be interesting to see the data on what kind of people are being hospitalised currently compared to previous waves. I dont shirk this and say its nothing, certainly not the case, but its getting silly and we simply can not continue forever locking down and freaking out about each strain. Im worried the constant paranoia is feeding the tolls with the "told ya, Govco will now control you" theories.

My elderly Mum and my brother both got it early last week. I got them both onto the anti viral medication because they both qualified.
They both had mild symptoms so it seems to help. Recommend you try and get it if you or a family member meets the criteria.

Is this right? -don't test for 4 weeks or get booster vaccinated for 3 months after an infection?
(NSW health) would anyone do it any differently? I got my 1st infection last week on a PO ship. |

Not quite sure why they don't want you to test but the no booster makes sense given the infection itself will provide ~90 days of immunity.

There’s been pressure upon decision-makers, from some stuff I’ve read, to reduce that period of supposed resistance post-infection down to just 28 days. It was in a couple of articles recently published by the ABC.
It was interesting to visit a specialist’s rooms yesterday, 200m from a major public hospital and note near complete lack of masks. The only wearers were myself and a fellow maybe ten years older. Yet the reception desk were sanitising pens they handed to incoming new patients! |

4 weeks is correct. It used to be longer, ~3 months I believe.
No test because they don't believe you can get reinfected within that period. After that, it is regarded as a new infection, which means you risk infecting others again, so you need to test and isolate again if positive. I highly doubt people, especially overseas visitors, would follow this, especially if they only had mild symptoms the first time around. Note you can still test positive long after you have recovered and are no long infectious, that is why they don't require to test negative after 7 days in order to leave isolation. Come summer, covid isolation will probably become a thing of the past.

Going to be interesting if NSW remains on or above that predictive trend line. I’ve already started shopping more than my usual week ahead on a few items in case of either having to isomalate or not being well enough to shop on schedule.

New Zealands reporting on Covid deaths changes today, from the WHOs pump up the numbers model, of any one dying within 28 days of Covid diagnosis from any reason classed as covid death to actual death from Covid.

New Zealand have made changes to their system, 'at the request of the World Health Organisation.' '...the new system as a better measure of Covid's burden on society and was an approach consistent to that of the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States.' The WHO have not 'pumped up' covid numbers, if anything the death rate from covid world wide is vastly under estimated. It is impossible to know the exact number of deaths due to Covid without an autopsy for everyone who has died in the last couple of years. What you can do is look at excess deaths and make a reasonable calculation compared with previous years before covid. https://www.thelancet.com/article/S0...796-3/fulltext This study estimates the actual number of deaths due to covid to December 2021 was over 18 million people. Thats over three times the nearly six million the WHO reported had died world wide. More articles here if you are interested. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-01526-0 https://www.who.int/data/sets/global...lled-estimates https://www.bbc.com/news/health-61327778

Well my work rolled over and said you can WFH 100% with agreement from your manager. Though they are still whinging about it being down to manager discretion. Seriously has kept me entertained that lot.
Sure enough as soon as the email came through, it was noticeable people are 100% WFH again, and it has never been 60/40 noticeable to begin with. That's ok our team will still turn up on Monday and own the office again ![]() |

Some good news from some British research of 428k patients identified that while there is an increased level of risk of cardiovascular disease during an infection and for 12 weeks after, people without pre-existing CVD who suffer from COVID-19 do not appear to have a long-term increase in incidence of these conditions.

My wife works in an office with 15 people, 3 of which have chosen not be vaccinated for whatever reason, every single person has been off sick with Covid, some two or three times, while all three unvaccinated people have never been sick with covid or even a cold or flu. One of the tree has attended a number of protest and rallies labelled superspreader events, to this day has not been sick. This story seems to repeat itself over and over. But I guess all this stuff is just huge coincidence, with odds akin to winning the jackpot on the lotto six week in a row, but hey it's possible I guess.... The problem is none of it can be proven either way as you can not be vaccinated and unvaccinated at the same time and every person is different.
