Victoria. What the hell??
This is like when you’re having a great time in the club and then your ex turns up! 🥴
Enter: Delta not Goodrem.
What the actual.. I thought we were all good? Same bestie. SAME!
We started the day with ZERO new cases. ZERO! The CHO turned into Dean Boxall. We boasted. We loved ourselves sick…..and then - one. new. case. 🤬
How?
The health people say she’s a Teacher at Al-Taqwa College in Truganina. They don’t know how she got it.They’re testing her household contacts and the school will close with all students/teachers to be tested - then iso.
The same school had an outbreak in July last year.
Where she been? I hear ya sis. One exposure site has been added so far - Yarraville Coles. Keep ya eyes open for more.
WEST WALKERS
A FIFO worker has tested positive.
He’s a man in his 30s from the Fortescue’s Cloudbreak mine site. It’s apparently a very, very weak positive test result. It’s also alpha not delta!
On July 20 he was at Perth Airport at the same time as a positive case who flew from Queensland to WA after completing hotel quarantine.
You won’t be PLUNGED (how many times have we heard that word) into lockdown - just yet.
Check the exposure sites.

We won gold!! Mathew Belcher and Will Ryan took the top prize in the men’s 470 sailing!
Tarzan competed in the Olympics…but not as Tarzan!!
Johnny Weissmuller, an athlete-turned-actor who played Tarzan in 12 movies, won five gold medals in swimming in the 1920s.
