Yeah, noticed that threshold earlier. Covid is now knocking on the door of top ten most lethal pandemics of all time, just behind " a really bad dose of the flu". 2009 Swine Flu killed somewhere between 150,000 and 575,000 depending on estimates. 2013-19 Bird Flu killed 616. 2002-04 SARS killed 774...

Pages of deep discourse about politics, and not a single mention of the biggest single existential threat we face: global warming and the general devastation of the natural environment, everywhere the eye can see, not to mention under our oceans. Is this a right wing or left wing concern? Apparentl...

People seem to forget Perth is the most remote city in the world. There are literally 2 roads in to Western Australia. Everyone else flies in. Nice city. People are batshit weird though. I cannot but agree! As a "blow in" I can confirm the city has some really great positives - outstanding beaches,...

Anyone noting the terrorists who invaded the Capital building are bringing new meaning to the term "snowflake"? We gave a bloke crying in an airport due to being not allowed to board a flight.

Easiest way to get over this state bickering is for the federal health department to take back the responsibility of quarantine, as per their remit, and have the quarantine done in detention facilities and military bases, away from the cities. The result, a massively reduced risk of transfer, no ar...

Smith’s footwork hid the batsman guard marks so it could be unsporting conduct contrary to the “Spirit of Cricket” ie he was being an Aussie cnut. A one match ban Shirley? No. Tim Paine has clearly explained this. He wasn't rubbing out Pant's guard, he was making out his own. Steve Smith marks out ...

Come on Guy, lockdown has had a huge effect on business. Many are closed, many more are struggling. The entertainment industry is still not back to running, cafes, restaurants and bars are not allowed back to full capacity, the travel industry is dead in the water.

Shops are a mess. Don't even bother. People are panicking despite the fact you can go and buy food during lockdown. Got my booze delivered so I'm happy.

Not sure what I was meaning to say there, old fashioned perhaps?

To be fair Clogs, that’s not a good comparison. NSW has had the virus for a month now so have ramped up. Vic have just had it kick off after 2 months of nothing.

I have posted NSW Health's official data releases every day of this cluster. Their record testing day was below 70,000. Why are you using fake data to troll your state government?
