Yesterday night I succumbed. We did everything we could to protect the rest of the family from my Hubbies infection. But the thing about covid is that you’re infectious before your symptomatic. So as predicted, I was already infected
And then my vulnerable daughter woke up with fever and aches at 5am. Happy birthday beautiful girl. Covid for your 12th birthday. What a gift. #ThanksAlbo. She is ok. She has been vomiting, sleeping and in pain. My daughter has spent the last 1.5 yr masking at school…
The only one along with her sister. It has been a nightmare. She has been ostracised and bullied by other kids and teachers. She is so strong. She wanted to protect herself because she is at higher risk… but instead her Dad brought it home from his work…
Where nobody masks because… you know blokes…
The thing about masks are that they only really work if we all wear them. @AlboMP and @Mark_Butler_MP need to make a plan with all the states and mandate masks indoors in every indoor space and implement ventilation standards.
2hrs later my other daughter started getting chills. So we are spending the day on our couch, sleeping, watching movies and cleaning up vomit.
While I contemplate the long term health implications for myself, my daughters and praying my 75 yr old mum doesn’t succumb next.

A Christmas story… I’m sure many can relate to. #MerryCovid
My brother’s family were coming to visit my family in regional NSW from Tassie for Chrissy. We haven’t seen each other for >2 years (pandemic). I haven’t met my niece. She is 1.5 yrs old. My brother’s a virologist…
None of us have had covid #CovidMiracle. On the 22nd my brother’s wife tested positive. She’s a teacher. My niece also unwell. Not sure who was patient zero, she attends daycare. She wasn’t allowed to be vaccinated. #ThanksATAGI#ThanksAlbo. Then my brother tested positive…
They canceled flights immediately with the “positive” news. Obtained credits and surprise surprise @Qantas have been a fucking nightmare. With hours spent on the phone trying to book flights in a few weeks.
Instead, we had family Christmas with my 75 yr old Mum…
