Thread: Corona Virus

I believe MOST Aussies, ALL Polies, medicos, most individuals etc are obeying "the rules" which are necessary to stem the spread of this evil disease. What worries me is that people in our community, people who "couldn't give a flying ****", just ignore warnings, just do their own thing, as I've said, just irresponsible "loonies", who, because of the ease of infection of this disease, will ruin the efforts of most of us to "obey the rules" & beat the virus. It only takes one irresponsible idiot, who by his actions can affect literally hundreds, then that "spreads" to thousands etc etc. China appears to be getting on top of things, I'm VERY doubtful that our society has the same discipline to get on top of things.

This is REALLY serious!
Bunnings is to suspend sausage sizzles.
Oh no, this is a major threat to Australian culture.

So this was the scene in Woolies Wynyard today.
Empty shelves for toilet paper, pasta, chocolate, noodles, tissues and pet food.
Seriously?
I'm just gobsmacked by the stupidity.
We were there to stock up for several days in the Tarkine wilderness, so we were quite justified in our shopping.
So how does the bloke with six cartons of Pepsi Max explain his shopping habits?

In your climate I'm sure they all would be thin on the ground & very messy.

When Aussies panic buy they go for toilet paper, pasta, noodles and sanitizer.
When Americans panic buy they go for guns - lots of big guns.
"You bad boys come for mah toilet paper, I'll blow youse away."

We certainly are different.

Now you now have what the fear of the Firing Squad can do.

They also usually charge the rellies for the bullet or two as well & they get told to go & pick up the stiffs out in their donga somewhere.

i got my test results back. so happy!

Meanwhile; it has been revealed that the person to be deported has to sit out a 2-week quarantine and then be deported. It'd be pretty irresponsible to simply place them on a plane and possibly infect other innocent passengers or place crew at risk.

YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY
