Coronavirus Outbreak

[weststigers]

My employers haven’t said anything yet. Pretty surprised tbh.

What line of work are you in?

China have developed a biological weapon which they allowed to spread throughout the working class. They have then sent the infected around the world, while they keep the vaccines and treatments to themselves.

China should be completely shut out of this country. Land that Chinese citizens own should be reclaimed by the government to pay for the treatment of the disease that was created and exported by China.

Funny think is that they are now over the worst of it, while the rest of the world now suffers the consequences.

:flushed: :flushed:

China should have been locked down from the beginning, no one in or out - they're on top of it now and have seen the worst of it. All this has done is kill people in other countries and ruin the global economy.



So what do you think of ScoMo letter in 100K Chinese students to attend university's here before they close direct flights the other week I find it appalling

Its not a race thing when I say Chinese it's a country of origin thing.... I think letting the universitys make a buck at ever one else's expense it horrific

Appalling handling of yet another crisis.

He's an absolute disgrace of a PM i cant think of anybody worse than him tbh, self serving to the end from his Hawaii trip to his ban on mass gatherings conveniently after his silly little church conference. We could have locked the borders down weeks ago but he procrastinated and still is.

France/Italy is way worse off atm


4 people max in a shop at a time

School kids are all working from home, very limited stuff to do

Child labour...I like it...get the economy moving :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I'm not trying to be high and mighty with this statement , but people should not be using the Coronavirus to try and get time off work or a sickie it is as low as you can get

The amount of stress it puts on the employers and other management and employees who are concerned they might get CV

One of my management is pregnant ..as you can imagine it gets pretty stressful

The other problem is this ....we are being told staff can only return to work with a medical clearance ...Drs and Hospitals are saying not to send mild cases to the Drs/hospitals

This is the big issue.

How long does somebody stay infectious? And if the spread continues with current trends then HOW THE BLOODY HELL are we gonna supports the millions put out of action? Scomo go home

Well I have been telling staff (and parents in the case they aren't 18 ) if we find out they aren't being honest that the next time the see the roster will be when we do day trips to Pluto

Explained to some there are 50 k fines for not self isolating

Just think in our youth the best thing you could do with excess dunny rolls was toilet paper's someone's house..generally a Manly supporter..

Well done @pawsandclaws1 ..nice work

Was it used ?

Company I work for has just suspended all face to face consultancies till August. I was pulled out of a meeting this morning and told to head home. Only work we will do will be through Zoom or the like. We will lose millions. Scary times folks


Well when you put it like that!

My point is many people from our organisation could lose their jobs thus scary times. But yeah, better than going to war

No offence taken mate. You are right. Was talking about this today. Our generation haven’t seen war, the depression etc. Bloody hell, we run out of toilet paper and the wheels fall off society.

But it is serious that many people could lose their jobs. Financially this is going to reek havoc

Currently on road trip with some overseas family members from Netherlands.
We are in Caloundra/ Golden Beach for next6 days. Apartment overlooking bay and township. Normally on Sunday packed with visitors and locals ..... but pretty quiet both on water and on shore. Walking track sparsely used.
Went shopping for supplies yesterday arvo .... lots of stuff missing and Woolies taking advantage by bumping price's.
Petrol-still cheap compared to Sydney. Cairns Port Douglas next so will be interesting to see how things are up there.

Coles and Wollies are short on some items up here in Cairns
Went to Super IGA to grab drinks for work and the lady behind the counter said it was crazy this morning
Said it has never been that busy
Sold out of toilet paper again
Long line up inside and a bit of road rage in the car park
If everyone is that worried then start wearing masks
Even a hanky over your mouth and nose
If you don't have one, even a Tshirt
If we get cases and it starts to spread up here then that's what I will be doing
No shame in that

This is completely bonkers.
