They have even shut construction sites, and people in Melbourne who are deemed close contacts of people who may have it are not even allowed to open their windows at home, its absolutely bonkers. I think they were hoping it would disappear round the rest of the world and they could just reopen the borders.

Do you think they will be able to keep their borders closed forever and lock their citizens up forever for the sake of 8 local cases or whatever? 1 minute ago, butlers said: Can you point us to that window regulation, seems pretty unlikely at first reading By all means. Go and listen to the Christian O'Connell podcast on Gold 104.3 from this Monday morning, the newsreader is having to work from home as her daughters school has been deemed a Tier 1 site, and cites this rule as part of a 14 day quarantine period.

butlers   223 #7157 Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) And yet  From the Victoria .gov site.  If you are caring for someone in isolation you are told too have thier window open if possible.  Same with self isolation, keep window open. Ventilate bathroom . You can even go outside if you have a private garden / balcony Edited July 21, 2021 by butlers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
HeHasRisen   3,316 #7158 Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) So she went on the radio and lied then? Interesting.  It may be different for a "Tier 1 contact site" or whatever, in any case it would be ridiculous to police.

butlers   223 #7159 Posted July 21, 2021 It would be ridiculous to police but it's NOT true.  Actually the .gov site is very plain about how you should behave in isolation and good hygiene practices.  Looks like OZ got unlucky betting the house on AZ.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

butlers   223 #7161 Posted July 21, 2021 Checked the SA .gov site too both states webpages n advice more or less identical . Was updated 2 days ago , no requirement on windows being shut. She was mistaken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Now I don't know if it's lack of vaccines, lack of the right type of vaccines or lack of uptake from young people but this might help focus a few minds. It is lack of uptake in the main....certainly in Doncaster anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
