A couple of months ago they predicted 10,000 cases per day

https://www.adelaidenow.com.au/coronavi ... bd39d4061d

Peak at 6,000 by July 12th
Let’s see how close they can get

D day: so excited with anticipation (of the reasons why their modelling is so effing wrong)
Must be the the effects of the 4th dose of enlightenment announced last week

Is long Covid really a medical diagnosis ?

If so is Long Flu or Long cold also?

Read an article the other week about "long COVID" in time will be viewed as chronic fatigue syndrome, given time the research may see it as such. I'll see if I can find it.

Rumours are around that the 12 week immunity exemption for close contacts is going to be slashed to 28 days.

They must be using Carey as a test subject....

Do close contacts have 12 week immunity?

As long as they do it after midnight tonight that's fine by me.

I think you have to cook the best dish in the immunity challenge as judged by Jock, Andy and Melissa and it's only good for one use in an elimination round. You learn a lot from Masterchef.

D day: so excited with anticipation (of the reasons why their modelling is so effing wrong)
Must be the the effects of the 4th dose of enlightenment announced last week

3,668

That's still less than January and April

So, let's just move the goalposts

Chief public health officer Professor Nicola Spurrier said yesterday that South Australia was “on track” to record between 5000 to 6000 cases within two weeks’ time in line with modelling released last week, but those figures were subject to change and the peak could hit earlier or indeed later than expected.

I'd rather them give worst case scenario though. Imagine the backlash if they predicted 3000 & it was 6000

I dont disagree but say its a worst case scenario instead of being definitive
They predicted 8,000 for February and10,000 for April and got nowhere near either. In fact, February dropped back to under 2,000 for most of it

All great for the scare tactics. They get exactly what they paid for.
Problem is you start losing the subjects when you are consistently wrong

Here's a cracking example: https://www.sahealth.sa.gov.au/wps/wcm/ ... +modelling

The final sentence sums it up:

This modelling is an important tool in helping us with our planning and demonstrates the benefits of South Australians continuing to do the right thing and getting a booster as soon as possible.

Really great the way they use Omicron for the modelling to sell the "booster" which uses the spike protein from the original Wuhan strain.
May as well take a Bex - at least you'll get a buzz

And if they're a South African Diplomat.

Now the bloke who I sit next to at work is off with Covid.
So far this year I've been to the MCG, Marvel, Adelaide Oval, local grounds, 2 planes, a few buses, lots of ubers, lots of bands, lots of pubs (all of which have had Covid cases in staff or customers when I've been there), worked in a 15 storey office, slept next to my wife who had it (for 2 days) and I've managed to avoid it.
I've come to the conclusion I'm a superhero or the vaccines are bloody good!

At what page did you become so jaded? I want to go back and see if I can spot the exact moment you called full bullshit on this thing.

Page 672 for those playing along at home.

For mine, I've been questioning it since way back. Inside the first 100 pages I was asking if the strategies were making sense.
