So the lockdown is conspiracy to close the victorian borders to visitors so the locals can have fun and not be crowded out by tourist's....................

Some footy game on tonight up here so there will probably be a big spike in lurgie recipients after all the barbie parties tonight .............. be interesting if they can beat the record set by Melb AFL fans....

Be interesting to see if the zero cases today become a software error tomorrow, resulting in an add on Monday tally followed by short sharp 7 day lockdown fo 10 weeks!

Ha, current infection rate per population 6.7mill peep and 40k infections till now equals an infection rate of 0.6%. The death rate of 900 total into those 40k infections equals a mortality rate of 2% of those infected. Just all that applied to the people not double vaxxed right now. Its just an outcome based on nothing more than whats happened statistically so far until today. There are a few variables that will affect it both up and down.
Ha ha, statistic experts will spin them to suit any argument. Did you know that 100% of people who died following a roll over whilst riding a quad bike were wearing pants. Experts rightly would argue that pants should be banned when riding the bikes as surely that was the cause of death

I read that research project, and an overwhelming majority of those were brown ... if not before then certainly afterwards

Statistics are a wonderful thing.
Take drink driving for instance. Statistics show that 25% of road deaths are caused by drunk drivers. But this means that 75% of deaths are caused by the sober drivers. The sober drivers should be put off the road and that lets the drunks drive in safety. Statistically, they have less accidents

Way to go @Bluey, I shrunk mine to a smaller size printed and laminated them, sit under the dash mat in the wagon just in case I need them as well as on the phone......................... if someplace needs to see them not a biggy and it doesn't bother me, can't see the issue.................. Bloke I know waffles on about Big Brother, if the block head thought beyond the faceache rubbish he would see that Big Brother has been and gone through his file decades ago and its not worth worrying about............................. I think he wears an alfoil hat at home though.
