SAPN?
SAPN and SA Water.

Not sure about SAPN, only heard from a few mates that they have asked everyone to work from home for the rest of the year due to 1 positive case.

SA Water has 1 positive case and at least 2 others waiting as well.

Reading not your strong point prefer audio and videos? Fully acknowledged that Wikipedia isn't the be all and end all of the truth

As I said I went looking for any peer reviewed research by the good Dr and found one from 2011 totally unrelated to Covid and a 2006 Physiology study resource for Nurses.

Meanwhile not less than 100 m away from me lies an un-vaccinated first nations women in ICU who because of a selfish unvaccinated women who lied on her border application in two states and one territory has created a cluster of over 100 COVID cases in the NT which has already resulted in one death of an aboriginal person. That the unavoidable reality of this situation

It's not too much of a stretch, IMO, to label selfish anti-vaxxers as genocidal racists given what's going on here in the remote NT.

Think about that as chuckle to yourself as you dont check in today, watch an anti-vaccination video to placate you selfish egotistical selfrightousness, whilst refusing to mask up.

There are over 1 000 000 healthcare workers (not me) who are fatigued at having to do the heavy lifting cover to cover for the vocal uninformed minority over the last 20 months

Are there any consequences if you receive a text that you are a close contact but don’t get tested?

I got a text on a Saturday but they didn't read the legal spiel to me until a phone call on the Sunday which I had to acknowledge so assumed penalties would only apply from the Sunday.

Not sure why the original post was deleted and not this one.
Surely everyone is entitled to an opinion!

Course he's entitled to an opinion but when he is part of a vocal minority that have at best jaundiced views and at worst no idea due to getting information from highly unreliable sources. He cant not expect to have it challenged especially when exhibited behaviours by the anti-vaxxers, anti maskers and anti check-inners are causing harm to vulnerable innocent members of our wider community.

Sorry if this appears harsh but having sat through todays and every other days Daily huddle at a major tertiary hospital which would've been no different to what happened at the nRAH, FMC and LMH today and then when you hear though even though we ahve beds we dont ahve the staff due to all the fatigue and leave.

Despite what has been posted on here across the all states there ahs been significant preparations and planning into managing Covid, however the goal post keep changing with every mutation and outbreak so more planning and prep has to be put in place. So when the 5th Column of society spreading misinformation with no experience or knowledge on:
1. how to run a health service
2. clinical practise and
3. Virology

Is our system perfect no, in hindsight could things have been done better yes but given the environment and complexity of what we are dealing with in real time we are doing the best of a crap situation

You can expect lies and miss information (ivermectin please F***ing spare me - clinical bleach) to go unchallenged.

I'm off to go check in, wear a mask and recover from my 3rd pfizer shot (just a sore arm like the previous two)

I’ve got no issues with his opinion nor yours.
If you see something you don’t agree with, you should challenge it.

I don’t agree with him being banned or told he will be banned for posting his opinions.

This thread has lots of information in it which is great.
It’s up to the individuals on here to decipher that info and form their own opinions.

484, now we are starting to get somewhere.

Soon the exposure sites will stop and we will move into the more realistic phase of if you get covid, let your friends and family know. Their monitor their own symptoms and get tested if they develop.
None of this go to iso for 7 days cause you went to coles 15 minutes after someone else who is now positive.

Correct, except Coles & Woolies never seem to be exposure sites, despite the volume of traffic :-k

Is that because most people are not in there for more than 15 minutes?
