I had to go to the shops the get some scripts filled this morning and went to the big shopping center in Woden but it was traffic log jam and I could not get within 500m in the car. Went to my local shops and the same so I parked illegally as there were no parks anywhere. Got into the shops, and looking in people's trolleys - yep packed full with poo tickets. I suggested to the guy in the Reject Shop that he should change the $6 price for a big packet of rolls to $12 as he would make a killing, but he said he would like too but couldn't.
Did I really expect any different - nope.[bigsad]

The way I see it is there is not much point knocking the door down if no one is staying at home.Quote:

Can't be seen to be a softie you know.
I can hear what you mean Des. Fox news US style reporting on Canberra shut down is entertaining plus. Apparently lock down is due to our gun laws [bigrolf][bigrolf][bigrolf]Quote:

EDIT. I see Aussie 005 seems to agree with me.
I reckon they might find someone from Sydney travelled to Canberra and spread the virus. Federal parliament has been sitting this week so I wonder if that is the connection.
Various people keep saying we can relax when we hit the vaxing targets, but when will that be? The graph below gives some hints, based on current rates.
My reading of it is, don't hold your breath.
Remember the National Cabinet agreement is the nation as a whole has to hit the target before any state can say it has also reached the target and can start relaxing.
That means the whole country is hostage to the progress in the slowest state, I think.

And to put it in perspective - Walgett Shire, now a hotspot, where the population is 40% aboriginal (Group 1b vaccination priority), and has among the lowest vaccination rates in the country. Today it has no vaccination appointments available, the closest is Moree, over 200km away, where there is one appointment available in 21 days time.

Actually, holding one's breath may be the best way out of this mess. Now, how long for, is the next question.[bighmmm]
