A school girl from Indooroopilly High tested positive yday. We knew this. Today-boom-six cases - a tutor, a teacher, her parents and siblings.
They’re trying to work out how she got it but they’re looking at some return travellers who possibly gave it to the tutor - who’d been everywhere.
🍿 oooh ok - what happened then?
Besties they DID NOT mess around. They pulled the lockdown lever on 11 LGAs.
Their deputy Premier says it’s the strictest lockdown they’ve ever had. The popo are on the streets, 10km bubble, no visitors to homes, cinemas and gyms closed.
Which LGA’s and how long? I got you.
Brisbane,Moreton Bay,Gold Coast, Ipswich,Lockyer Valley, Logan, Noosa,Redland, Scenic Rim, Somerset and Sunshine Coast. At this stage it’s a three day event. Preps for the Ekka have been put on hold. Saturday’s NRL games have been cancelled.
What did everyone else do?
Tassie - they immediately classified the 11 areas a level two risk. They’ve shut the border and anyone already there - into iso you go go. Annnnnd Victoria made those areas red zones.
Speaking of! Victoria - you’re next only because I could never put you in third place. Second is hard enough. ♥️
Two new cases today! One in iso.. one not ao iso - but! It’s ok when you look at the detail.
One case is the partner of traffic control no covid control man. The second is a colleague of his -they shared a car ride. He’s only been to two exposure sites and had minimal time in the community. See? Not so bad.
What else? They’ve changed Pfizer doses to six weeks apart to give more people a chance of getting a first dose.
Oh and there’s 🦠 in the 💩 again. Check the website - suburbs in the east and west.

A man in his 60s has died in his home. This is really sad sis. It’s happened a few times now. They think people are worried about losing their income and they’re not getting tested.
Also two thirds of their COVID cases are people under 40. 11 of the ICU cases - are under 40.
WA /SA/ TASSIE / NT/ ACT

If you weren’t watching the Matildas game then you need to get in the bin. WOW - talk about amazing. Scored in the 89th minute to equalise and take it to extra time. Blocked a penalty and kicked some seriously good goals. YEAH. THE. GIRLS. They play Sweden next.
🏊🏼♀️
Kaylee McKeown grabbed gold in the 200m backstroke. Emily Seebohm picked up the bronze!
Ariarne Titmus is taking home some silver from the 800m free.
Annnnd we won a bronze in the 4x100m MIXED medley relay. This is the first time this race has been held. WOOP! 👦🏽👩🏽👦🏽👩🏽
During the 1904 Olympics in the U.S., women were only allowed to score in archery. However, they did compete in the Olympic boxing card, but their performance was only viewed as a show. It’s like they were training us for the hunger games.
