Strongly agree with this. Being tested is to reduce the chances that you have it and might give it to someone else.

I see having high levels of male sex hormomes such as Androgen increases your chances of catching C-19, so bald men are over-represented in hospital admissions. So bald is bad!

Maintaining social distancing and curtailing non essential travel is by Far a More effective tool to contain the spread of this virus than testing which is still a LONG way from being 100% reliable.
Yes testing IS a good idea But because the tests results are so unreliable it cannot be used as the primary tool to combat/contain this virus like Many seem to think.

And they're off again, the runs on toilet paper is back on a roll... Apparently, more is better when you got the ****s with your community effort at isolation?

That makes sense, when you can only get 6 months worth, now your down to 3 months worth , it’s time to stock up and when you see one person with a trolley full of toilet paper you instantly react and fill your trolley too🤪🤪🤪

Bloody selfish morons🤬

are they actually selfish tho?
i buy 6 months at a time, but thats cause i see it as more efficient.

I too buy in bulk, but as you say it’s to save some coin when things are on special or bulk deals
I don’t buy in bulk because I think the world is going to run out of bog roll tomorrow

If you're interested in the statistics rather than the headlines, the story below has lots of them.
Interesting that while the current focus is on Victoria for understandable reasons, it is NSW which has by far the most number of people in hospital - 47 - and has had half the total deaths.
