We’re moving to Level 2 from Tuesday. Not much will change other than we’ll be able to buy cigarettes and booze legally again. The revenue the state has lost as a result of banning the sales of both over the past five months is probably equivalent to the IMF loan we’ve now been granted and which will no doubt also be misappropriated, at least in part, somewhere along the line. Curfew remains in place between 10pm and 4am.

our PM says vaccines will be 'free' to all Australians. (this is the result of a free healthcare health system!)
it will also be mandatory except where exemptions are given by medical professionals.

Good news regarding the vaccination trials ! Nova Scotia is almost virtually virus free ! Only 3 cases out of a provincial population of over 900,000 !

Australia has just hit a Covid-19 milestone....25,000 cases since it started with just over 500 deaths in total.
19,000 of those have been in Victoria.
luckily here in West Australia we have had less than 700 cases with 9 deaths, excellent effort by the people of this wonderful State.

The shit is going to hit the fan this winter in the Northern Hemisphere. No two ways about it. The chicken is coming home to roost.

India has just recorded its 3.6 millionth case, i suspect its a lot higher than that.
a lot of third world areas arway from the cities and towns and with apopulation of one point whatever billion its goona get a lot worse.
also, the world tally now tops 25 million officially recorded contractions but again, because of the whole third world lack of decent medical practices i believe the actual infection rate could be double that statistic.
