Add to that probably 3-5 staff. In my local town that would be about 1200 people. Crazy stuff, however I'm glad I'm living in Australia right at the moment.

to me thats acceptable. life isnt meant to be risk/death free.

my sister is living in the UK. she says its something they just live with and aust media is blowing it out of proportion for whats happening in other countries. no TP shortages there.

canada just lifted their lockdown. why? because they got below 400 cases a day. we're ****ting ourselves at 20 a day. admittedly, canada does have an excellent health system, which brings me to my next point


whats cheaper? investing in health services or having a lockdown.

Whats cheaper.... Ford asked that question with the Pinto repairs and were charged with criminal homicide for deciding it was cheaper for people to die. I'm sure some cant draw the similarities, but I'm also sure many do have that capacity.

Indeed. …95% is a long way off considering Australia is coming last!! (38th / 38) in the OECD.

Hmm sorry but you’re the one who’s trolling Eevo. …Have you been sanctioned yet by AULRO for your ideological views?

Nobody is sanctioned, on this site, for ideological views. After warning, people who continue to express those views will be infracted.

Something like what happens to an LT 77 behind a 4BIT?

Well.......... in a really perverse way it is, if one is prepared to cop the end economic cost, possible loss of nationhood, many people dying a lonely ugly death.

Not my idea of civilisation or basic humanity (when there are alternatives).

Depends on a definition of 'working'.
