While I sympathize…masks are to stop you spreading, not stop you catching….

Not surprising. If only these consequences could have been predicted (or even discovered through the observation of other countries that had "let it rip")...

Other essential services establishments have RAT stations at entry, my place seems to not give a fck.
My whole family in Ireland have had it, we are a year behind the UK, its been an 18 month drawn out experience for them and we now have Scomicron... I seriously want it now rather than later.

I feel your pain, the worst case scenario is getting it before a holiday... or worse, falling into a forced quarantine on holiday.
I hope you and the young bloke get to do the event, when you get back clean, you will feel like I do... hit me with it baby !

My work gives less fucks
Staggered school, start, facking hell. So one kid at school, one at home for home schooling. Wife’s a teacher so waiting on directive from her employer (private school).
Youngest will need childcare a couple days a week but email this week and they had 2 cases there. Fark. Just don’t know what to do anymore. Just live life and deal with the spicy cough when we get it. It’s the potential long term effects on the kids that has me freaking out.

That's what everyone says until they end up being the unlucky person that gets smashed by it. Hopefully omicron is not so bad for long covid but before omicron over a third of covid 19 patients had a least one long covid symptom 6 months after infection. Those are not good odds.
It is not inevitable that you'll get it. Some PPE and basic hygene will go a long way. I personally now know of several families where one or more members have got (presumably omicron) but not the whole household.

I have heard this line about 100 times in recent memory. I then proceeded to find various antivax sentiments among those that tow this line. I suspect it is often BS used to try and mask unreasonable views.

This will be the moment that ensures we all get it. There is going to be no way schooling mismanagement won't result in it spreading far and wide.Staggered school, start, facking hell.

You have to factor in that the anti's will jump on anything that will help support their position.
Shouldn't diminish the truth for the genuine, but sadly in our brave new world, it does.

That would be great if true, but its not.

It is in line with the general policy of the LNP of "fuck the poor, they can make their own arrangements. It's their fault for having no money."
Now imagine #ScrotuMo 's dickhead face smirking at you all while saying it. Still going to vote LNP? then GTFO
I feel for all those poor bastards on the dole, being railroaded into jobs at supermarkets, warehouses, aged care, hospitality, or anywhere else with a high chance of getting infected with covid. The Aged Care sector is way understaffed at the moment too, IIRC. They were generally understaffed BEFORE covid. Jebus help the elderly in those places (some a lot better than others), because #ScrotuMo doesn't give a shit.

You wouldn't want to be that person that has an underlying health issue that is exaggerated by covid either, some people have even caught Covid twice. Also think about the load on the health system.

no doubt, but because this is a common stance now, its impossible to tell the genuine from the anivaxxers with this comment alone. Its safer to assume antivaxxer. Thats the detriment thats been caused.

Getting rejected at hospitals or having very long waiting periods could be a hard pill for some to swallow, also heard Fryenburge said to the media that the free RATs will still cost people in taxes, nothing is for free.

in VIC, there's an article in the paper (Age) this morning that covid patients have been sent to city hotels. WTAF?!?!?
not surprised, but still, what the actual fuck?!?!? the covid will circulate like a MOFO through their aircon and the outcomes won't be good.

yeah i dont get the whole "cant wait to get it" position. You don't want it full stop.
if you get it, then hope its mild. But we should still be trying to avoid it if possible. Last thing anyone wants is to be the poor cunt that is otherwise healthy tripple vaxed that still dies. Thats a risk that didnt exist 2 years ago that we all now have to live with.
