#ATAGI

It is very good that you are recommending NPI’s to bridge the gap between vaccinations (chasms) however most people in real life have no idea how to protect themselves properly and will therefore get infected and die anyway.
Have you seen fit testing stations in shopping centres? No.
Have you seen TV adverts showing how to choose and wear a respirator in any level of detail? A fit check?

No.
Have you seen any change in the regulations for building ventilation?

No.
Have you seen work from home being encouraged of late?

No.
Have you seen people being paid to isolate when sick?

No.
We have a vaccine ONLY national strategy with very little NPI use, and the few that are using masks to try to help themselves, aren’t using ones that will withstand the onslaught of an untamed outbreak in a largely unmasked society.
Therefore #ATAGI you must weight the vaccine deployment against REAL WORLD SCENARIOS.

Or people will die.

Lot of people don’t understand why 800 infected on a cruise ship is a big deal.
The first issue is the situation on board. Recycled air ventilation poses a huge risk, but not recycling it causes energy drain. Use of HEPA/UVC on air intakes helps but to stop disease spreading on board you really need to clean the air *at the source*. cruisecritic.com.au/articles.cfm?I…
As you can see, some cruise ships have put effort into upgrading their systems.

Problem is, when you have 800 cases of disease on board, that is a HUGE viral load to clean. Lot of energy required. Difficult to clean it all.

“You only need a seeding event to happen – you know if one person brings the virus to Broome and it came by bus. It doesn’t matter if someone else brings the virus to Broome and it came by ship.”

Prof Catherine Bennett

Advice to cruise industry and passengers.
My version./s

“We are doing nothing to protect rural and remote regions of Australia, so it really doesn’t matter if a few people seed COVID-19 outbreaks in rural towns with no real health service, or a giant seeding event of hundreds of cases from a cruise ship occurs.”

The following is part of my friends farewell post on Facebook. One of the best ED nurses I have worked with.

Read the testimony to what we do and what is being lost.

We still need to slow down these outbreaks.

That’s all there is to it.

We need automated contact tracing. Supported iso. Mask mandates or heavy public health messaging re masks. We still need those ventilation regulations upgraded.
These problems MUST be attended to.

This is not the time to say “oh stuff it I’m retiring, I can’t be asked…”

We don’t even have the luxury of grieving our losses yet. The pandemic is still on!

(Rt Hon Brad Hazzard)
We need to get back on the line, get back into parliament and seriously debate things so we can pass into law long term protections for humans against SARS.

@1goodtern You wouldn’t believe this, but literally this morning someone has said to me “I just can’t shake this… first a chest infection, and now a urine infection…”

Not even half an hour ago.
@1goodtern Someone else I know (v close) has had three eye infections post COVID.

Another has had a deterioration in their fertility, as compared to their baseline pre and post covid. Measured.
@1goodtern It’s almost as if the stuff in the science papers is real. 👀

From @ama_media

“A conscientious objection is based on sincerely-held beliefs and moral concerns, not self-interest or discrimination.”

To apply this to wearing masks in healthcare @Ahpra implies that wearing a mask is a matter of belief/morality?
I mean… it could be… but when one persons belief could kill another?

Patients are often vulnerable.
There is some actual science behind keeping ones respiratory secretions to oneself. There is a real danger posed by the fervent belief that we must not wear a mask, especially in healthcare.
