Bad luck if one is rummaging in the Glove Box (are they still called that as the only ones I have seen are full of papers & general crap ?) moving on, while leaning over to the passenger side while doing so, does one get it in the arse & that is why it is a SURPRISE?:wallbash::BigCry:

My feeling is, that may turn out to be closer to the time, but believe there will be pullback & staged efforts as it decreases to unwind all that that has been put in place. IMHO.
Then we have to wait with baited breath to see if it raises it's ugly head again.
Went to the IGA , opposite is the Brighton medical centre. Outside is a health worker fully kitted out in PPE. A table and chair and bits and pieces, the sign says ." this is not a coronavirus testing site, but is door stop testing " Every one who comes to the centre is tested for temperature, and general well being. I saw a questionnaire that had to be filled out. Fail the test, presumably if you fit the bill, next stop virus testing facility. A good way to keep their patients as safe as they can.
Listening to the ABC radio on the weekend, interviewing a young performer, she said the industry has already organised an online concert on social media. About 20 performers , I think, they don't even have to be in the same room. There was some suggestion this or something similar, could be the concerts of the future. Pay per view, on the device of your choice. There was some talk on how the booking companies could be fitted into the system so that there could be minimal disruption to the status quo. Perhaps it's time for the Boomers to stand aside, and let the young ones move us into the new World .Quote:

I'm starting to think "Endgame C" makes a lot of sense.
"In effect, Endgame C appears to be the strategy of China and South Korea — and domestically Tasmania is heading in the same direction.
Endgame C appears to be working so far in China, where the only new cases on Thursday were incoming passengers, each of whom is required to spend 14 days in supervised isolation in a designated hotel.
In Endgame C, it is plausible the shutdown would only need to last about eight weeks."
Is one of the symptoms of Covid 19 that you lose IQ points rapidly? Had our morning tele conference with the team I work with and geez, some of them seem to have got really dumb in the last could of days...
Basic things they don’t understand - one person (who I thought was quite smart but apparently not) was saying how worried he was that there were now 1,000’s of infections in Australia and that the majority of these people were going to die...
Seems he thought the mortality rate was 80% as he’d heard that number being used but that was for recoveries from infection without intervention.
A couple of others said dumb stuff too - where are they getting this stuff from?
Social Media. A known cause of IQ reduction.Quote:

NZ in coronavirus lockdown for next four weeks - Jacinda Ardern says schools closed, essential services only - NZ Herald
We are scheduled to stay in lock down for four weeks at this stage. If people do not adhere to lock down, and we continue to see a rapid increase in cases, we get more weeks added. It suddenly feels like detention at school all over again.
If it came to it the grubberment could commendeer cruise ships to use as isolation wards for the not so ill to spare the hospitals for the really ill. Tied up at a dock easy to maintain secure access.Quote:
