So another thing social media has ruined…

Yeah.if they were out there to enjoy it fine but deadset its just to get " that pic" and they go. Take a pic sure but spend some time there and chill and enjoy it

How would the government actually know if you have reported it or not is what it like to know....

Another well thought out policy and $1000 fine mind you

Maybe they have gps tracking on the RAT's and location finders when you open the packaging lol

This isolation period has been tough... its sent the wife into a state of anxiousness and depression. The kids are literally scratching at the walls. Two more sleeps seems so far away. I have never felt so frustrated and angry.

We have been in iso since last Thursday (6/1) because thats when we were symptomatic. I cant believe these are the current rules. No common sense what so ever. How can i test negative for 3days when i felt sick, then test positive on the 4th when feeling better and negative again on the 5th? Then be forced to isolate for 7days from the 4th day. Mind you i would have been spreading the virus before showing symptoms anyway!!

I have thrown away my rat tests. What a way to push a person to say "fuck it". Sick or not, I wont ever test again unless forced to by work.

They need to change the isolation rule. People who test negative, need to be allowed out, to work for recreation fuken anything. No wonder so many businesses/industry are suffering. Most these people would have spread the virus anyway before they showed symptoms ffs.

If they stop my children from going back to school. They can forget about me giving a fuck about taking personal responsibility.

Nsw health put up some stipulations about the deaths, rat tests, etc

Basically put, while the deaths are only deaths that took place in the last 24 hours, the RAT tests are from start of July with around 24,000 being in the past 7 days. There are also case double ups with some submitting their RAT test and doing a PCR.

When will this COVID wave be over? Four numbers to keep an eye on and why

Four numbers give us clues about when Australia's COVID wave may peak

We'd all like some answers, but uncertainty over how we count COVID cases is complicating the picture. Here's what to expect in the days and weeks ahead, writes Adrian Esterman.

Misleading heading but some good info on RATs situation/procurement/TGA approval.

Australian-made RATs await TGA approval amid rapid antigen test shortage

'It's a disaster': Australian RAT producers slam governments for dragging their feet on at-home testing

As Australians struggle to get their hands on mainly imported COVID-19 rapid antigen tests, several Australian companies have been waiting months for local approval to sell their RATs.

I tried to find a bookie to take a bet on the case numbers being down today but was quoted $1.01

Government management of Omicron blighted by false assumptions, bad planning

Australia's journey through Omicron is like the bus tour from hell

Eventually we'll see the back of the boggy ground on this outback track — but in worse shape and at higher cost than the Morrison government was suggesting only weeks ago, writes Michelle Grattan.

Said this the other day but I have a contractor that called me in tears (and let that sink in he is a big scary wog and he wouldn’t mind me saying that) saying he can’t complete a job because his missus is due to give birth in 5 days and has just caught Covid and isn’t going too well. I’ve resigned myself to getting it but that would be very scary situation. Poor ****.

I’m not trying to fear monger but that wouldn’t be fun.

Said all along, my concern is for children and all the vulnerable.

Very few of us would have any idea how worrying it would be at present for those folk.

So no unvaxxed cases? Or have they moved their agenda of the bad guys being unvaxxed to double vaxxed now?
