Yep. Most also undoubtedly have families of their own to provide for. In the couple of weeks that we had active cases in my wife's ICU, she would come home via the back, shower, change and completely avoid us where possible.....but we know we were all still risk. It wasn't really possible to have her staying on site between shifts. This situation isn't that different. It's different if you sign up to something like that and are able to manage it, not for regular healthcare workers thrown into it.
And history shows that its spread widely in the period before detection. Fingers crossed it hasn't.
Are you suggesting we use that tropical holiday resort that cost a mere $185 million to reopen for something useful. Foolishness...
Finally, we have the answer to transitioning away from coal mining.
And some bonus public transport usage as well.
No mega-church shared communion goblett?
Just been looking at some of the suburbs involved.
Moses and his burning bush are not part of the Christmas story.
Look at the shit FIFO workers endure do little more than a sizeable pay packet. I'm pretty sure there is plenty of eligible workers that would take the job for That kind of pay packet.
I think we (all of us) should pull our heads in and have a big serious rethink about events like Christmas. I love a good holiday! I love getting away and doing stuff. I also love seeing friends and family and having a bit of fun. But...maybe this year we all need to forgo that kind of thing a little and take the pandemic a little more seriously.
The real cost in making plans is the quarantine process if you just cant get back across the border in time from where you are or don't hear in time. We were in NZ on the very first lockdown and literally had 5 hrs to get back to AUS to avoid 14 Day quarantine - Lucky for us they were doing home quarantine at the time - But now we cancelled all plans for our 2 weeks off and will just wing it. Luckily we have a camper and stuff if we do decide to try anything.
QLD has closed up shop.
100% agree. Getting the plandemic and "I have suffered enough me me me" crowds to go along with that will be the challenge.
You're up against people like my mum who refuse to let Dictator Dan Andrews steal Christmas. Normally sane people, who haven't suffered an ounce during covid, living in country Vic, but still thinking this is somehow just an unnecessary inconvenience.
I drove home from work on Saturday night, straight down through the city... bloody pageant was on. 25kph and people everywhere. Was sitting at the lights on Nth Terrace and there was probably 100 people shoulder to shoulder waiting to cross, I remember thinking social distancing was non existent.
