We thought your number would hit a five before a six.
I’m sure it all feels a little hopeless… but from a Victorian – we’ve been there. Eat chocolate.
NSW - let’s talk. ♥️
The digits:
633 new cases –a jump of 181

There are again calls from the Premier to strengthen the lockdown.

What’s happening with the unsolved mysteries?
There are 15 in St Kilda.
They only have one thing in common – their geographical area.
Two of them are homeless – one is a sex worker.
They don’t believe that person transmitted while working.
There is still 🦠 in the 💩 at Shepparton – this has been picked up three times.
ACT
Besties, another day of big numbers – but remember – they expected this.

More schools have been added to the exposure site list:

QLD/TAS/WA/SA/NT
All in the no new cases club singing ‘don’t be suspicious’ - if you know - you know.
More on them ⬇️
QUEENIES
Yas Queens!
No new cases and restrictions are easing early in the south east because Delta not Goodrem has left the building! 🎤
From Friday 4pm (instead of Sunday):
30 people at homes.
Community sport is back (limits apply).
Weddings and funerals back to 100 people.
Stadiums indoors and outdoors up to 75%
You still need to carry your mask at all times –south east people to wear them indoors (not in offices if socially distanced at desks)
They’re also looking at harsher border restrictions with NSW which will involve shortening the essential worker list.
NORTHIES
You guys are looking great.
Second day of lockdown but the politicians are feeling good about coming out of lockdown town on time.
No new cases!
Of the 85 Nothern Territory close contacts 65 have come back negative.
SOUTHIES
Ok, remember the man who walked out of the HQ bin for eight hours?
Turns out – he used a fire escape – got to the carpark- lied to the popo saying he came out of a pub – they let him leave. He then went to the pub and Maccas.
He came back on his own – and was arrested, tested and charged. He was negative.
A review has made nine recommendations including: monitoring CCTV.

Researchers studying kangaroos found they’re primarily left-handed, using that hand for grooming & eating 95% of the time. They also realised kangaroos typically use their left for precision and their right for strength. So if one fights you – watch for the right hook.
