Lets face it, not everyone is into Bum Crack.

Bum Crack isn't splitting hairs.

I've heard he waxes.
1961, 1971, 1976, 1978, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015.... And don't you forget it!

Every medical expert seems to be advocating a mass lockdown whilst we have seen alot of other countries go down that path.

ScoMo is getting advice from medical experts. He doesn't make these decisions on his own.
Better to play it safe now, than pay for it dearly later. People just need to be conscious of their personal hygiene and not lose their minds (whoops...too late.)

Don’t disagree. I think the lack of trust in politicians (especially this one) doesn’t help. The government has to weigh up the significance of a wounded but not dead economy with harm minimization. They might be working to a different mortality rate to others though.

I’ve still got the kids out of school, aided by having the luxury of both the missus and I working from home. Tough decision now whether to back our thoughts in against those of our Pollies, coupled with a concern of the kids falling behind their peers.

I don’t think I’ve ever flip-flopped on such a range of thoughts, in such a short space of time, as I have in the past 5 days.


People are listening to Karl Stefanovic before ScoMo because people like to be enraged


Never thought I'd say I agree with a Crows supporter. Go Bloods.

Yeah im no expert on this but that is why i posted asking for peoples thoughts. I left his conference thinking 'geez his the first politician ive heard say Lockdown doesn't work' I've heard some say they dont want to go as far as that i but i hadn't heard one say that it didn't work.

You definitely get the feel that Sco Mo has an eye for the future economy as well as current dangers more than most other politicians around the world. If i am brutally honest i don't 100% disagree with it. I hate talking like this but how many deaths are acceptable if it means we dont **** the financial future for the next generation of kids. Tough question that doesn't sit comfortably in the heart but one that a Prime Minister probably needs to look at.

I also get a feel Sco Mo is more tolerant to allow risk to an older generation than he would be if this was affecting kids which in its own right is an extremly complex morale debate.

My average mug punters feel:

Italy, France, South Korea, NZ- Do what it takes right now to eliminate Coronovirus at any financial cost, we will find a way to survive the recession. Every death is one to many.

Australia, England- We have an appetite for a slightly higher death rate if it means the country is financially stable.

There are litrerally two types of people at the moment..

1. Those who realise it's about not letting it get out of control, and the possible implications if it does.
2. Those who are heroes that compare it to the flu and think everyone has gone bananas.

Sadly it's the number 2's who will be the cause of it getting out of control if it does.


No doubt I’m number 2, speaking to two ED doctors yesterday they cannot believe the hype


Ditto my GP yesterday.

I get the same feels. I understand we're behind Italy, France etc in terms of cases and time, but I do wonder if it keeps spreading at current rates whether ScoMo's position will change.

Our school is completely out of hand sanitiser stores at the minute and can't get any more until whenever Woolies can get it here, my classroom has none after running out today. If it gets in here it'll get around quickly.

Anyone got any cheap hand sanitizer or soap pump bottles they can sell me?
I hear it’s all the rage these days.

What’s wrong with normal soap?

Curious, they advise not coming into contact with people who have the virus.. but umm how are you to know? Even when they announce new cases they don't even give an idea of the area they're from.

They suggest soap is far better because the fatty solids in it kills the virus quicker

A virus would last less than seconds without the right humidity and temperature.
But yes I agree if someone sneezed on a 20 dollar note and I immediately put it in my mouth within .1 of a second it might be an issue.
I think the fact you'd be approximately 10 million more likely to catch it through germs in the air transmitted by a human is an issue.

My goodness, Facebook and stupidity has a lot to answer to.


Facebook? Nah, I blame the scientists who do these studies and then release results saying Covid-19 can survive on plastic for 3 days. They are the nutbags leading to people not wanting to handle money... :roll:

If you are worried just self isolate and let the rest of us get on with it ;) catch a worse disease from some of the changerooms I saw last year (just trying to lighten up before anyone jumps down my throat)
