346 exposure sites, outbreak at Summitcare at Baulkham Hills, yet Spotlight advertising a sale with extended shopping hours - in a lockdown!
Maybe if the shops were actually closed people might stay home instead of going shopping and spreading the virus.

Indeed…what lock down? …and without JobKeeper, employees are not going to stay home either. …the Australian Covid19 lockdown rebellion has begun.

…the fantasy of an endless gilded cage existence is over.

Sydney aged care COVID-19 outbreak spreads, three residents test positive (msn.com)

I think I read that the three were vaccinated, so I would expect that the severity would be very low?

FWIW,they also test sewage for drugs,and can pinpoint pretty accurately which streets they are originating from.

In correctional centers,they also test wastewater and can work out which block or area the drugs are from.

I think I posted that. Perhaps I wasn't clear. The next few days will tell.

Two staff tested positive. Why aren't federal aged care workers vaxed?

I reckon you are still wearing Beach Shorts from Summer. Don't forget the weather has got colder more recently & lack of movement in front of the screen will do that.

Don't ask.

Umm…not enough Pfizer vaccines? Poor AZ communication? Overworked underpaid aged care staff? Incompetent federal vaccine roll out? Gilded cage complacency? Australian government classist egotism? …Oh, all of the above?
