Why do you think its needless?


Incorrect might be a better word.

I would say that incorrect fear mongering is in itself needless though

I get my covid education from here, there are too many grey areas, even at work there is inconsistencies with the guidelines from person to person.

Couldn't agree more that it's a shambles in terms of providing information. Often the government infographics don't match the laws as gazetted.

I suspect relying on here might not be the best remedy for that though.

I read it on here and then do the opposite.
Generally works.

If you can sift and laugh through the woft there's some good oil in here from a select few.

One chick keeps barking at others to wear their mask, she was making some lunch in the kitchen maskless so I had to ask if her strap had broken.

Our GM isn't wearing one yet so I won't.

Not one single person on site is wearing a mask here, and hasn't since it all started. 300 people on site.
Always been voluntary not mandatory.

Apparently we have to if we go in someone's office, I just stand at their door if I need to talk to them and I'm not fussed what they do in mine.

Here we go the MSM fear mongering starting again.

New Botswana variant with 32 'horrific' mutations is the most evolved Covid strain EVER and could be 'worse than Delta' — as expert says it may have emerged in an HIV patient

Only 10 cases of the strain — dubbed B.1.1.529 — have been spotted to date

Variant has 32 mutations, many of which suggest it is more vaccine resistant

Scientists warn the variant could be worse 'than nearly anything else about'

Your clothes cannot stop a fart but a mask can stop a virus.

Basically means if you attend a potentially dodgy site, either try and get away with not checking in, or check in at a second site within 14 minutes to prove you didn't meet the minimum 15 minute threshold.


The second place you check in on can be the dodgy site


Register your own house as a venue, then check in at home / in your car, etc each time you leave the previous location.


I like the way you think

so at my work, the scared liittle people in the offices have forced back into how we were 18months ago, its a fricken joke, and they are hiding behind the government saying thats what theyve been told they have to do.
My direct boss told me i have to wear a mask whenever i go in the office, I told him i have a medical exemption, he then said take to it up with the general manager. I replied i wont be taking it up with anyone, my medical exemption is just that, none of anybodies business, all you need to know is i have one, off he walked.
Still no vax mandate though.
Ready to go on that front from many angles.
A good start when they talk of WHS is can i see the MSDS on the vaccine?

My Covid experience today.

3- year old daughter gets dropped at childcare all good. Get a phone two hours later from childcare saying she has a rash on her chest and now needs to have a negative Covid test before she can return to childcare due to it being a symptom.

I pick daughter up and take her to medical centre where my partner works as a medical receptionist. She gets me an immediate booking with a doctor and explains the situation. Essentially the doctor says a rash is not a Covid symptom and prints off a government document explaining the symptons requiring a test.

We check the rash over and it seems all normal and give her a dose of Zyrtec for the itchiness.

Ring childcare to say doctors wont do a covid test as they done believe its a symptom. Childcare pushes back its on their list of symptons so there not allowing her back until a negative covid test is shown. I left it at that to update my partner on the situation. An hour later the childcare rings me back and say oh sorry they were using a WHO document that states rashes but agreed the SA Government document didn't have rashes on it therefore she is now allowed to attend again without a negative covid test.

What a **** around...

If you going to get pedantic and draw very thin bows you might want to request to see a SDS.
