lumack Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I came home from a hectic day at work and was floored by the news from eb. I'm so grateful to mistermum for setting up this forum.I'm terrified we are going to explode with covid again, and the lockdown was for nothing. Feels like i need to do as much as we are allowed to right now, because I'm irrationally convinced we will be lockdowned again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorem ipsum Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Maybe you were just in time - EB is giving an error now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsLaurie Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Hmmm I’m hoping we get lucky for once with this North Burbs outbreak. If the kid that went to school had a mild case (which seems possible if it was picked up in routine day 11 tests, not due to symptoms), then they might not have passed it on much... guess we can only hope the various rings of quarantine are correct and hold, so it doesn’t go further even if there are additional cases.

Caticorn Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Hi awesome Vic people. So glad not to be losing you all.Can anyone confirm for me that no rules have changed that I am not aware of. DD has been invited over to a friend's house on Saturday and for a sleepover because the rules are changing. I said no, the rules aren't changing. Then I bumped (in a socially distanced way) into another school mum at the supermarket and she also thought things were changing in Saturday making sleepovers possible.Have I missed something? We are metro - only barely, but metro nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallie Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I thought the visitors at home rule changed on Sunday 11:59pm, so basically from Monday. But i could be wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RynandStompy Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'm Northern suburbs too so am nervous at the number of people asked and relied on to isolate. It seems so close.But we've kept pretty close to home ourselves, it's mainly DDs school I'm nervous for.And with the EB news tonight I've been too distracted to worry and ruminate so far. Silver lining I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchetta Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I think it's from Nov 1 and it'll need to be confirmed by an announcement - the expectation is one other household can visit. https://www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au/second-step-coronavirus-roadmap-for-reopeningThe whole reopening thing feels daunting to a lot of people - my work discussed a traffic light signal idea as to how willing you were to get back into normal life, eg green ok let's go, red I'm totally not ready to see anyone yet!ETA this is the comprehensive page, click through to the details: https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/second-step-restrictions-metropolitan-melbourne-covid-19How many visitors can I have to my house?If you live in metropolitan Melbourne, you cannot have visitors to your home unless they are providing care, childcare or urgent and essential services, they are your intimate partner, or they are in your ‘single social bubble’.

Gudrun Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Greetings Vics! Such a rapid and smooth transition over here. Good work and thanks esp. to Mister Mum and Zeppelina. Love the new but still reminiscent identity. A new beginning. Ahead of the game on new normals. Vanguard bumps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how I understand it too - from next weekend (1st Nov) not this one. Although, they said there may be more announcements this Sunday.

Bornagirl Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'm actually optimistic about this 'outbreak'. Even if there are cases, we've got 500 people in quarantine, to catch it, and he's 11 with negligible symptoms. According to Brett Sutton, 70% of people don't pass it on, which is incredible. We now have the sort of numbers where all resources can be thrown at one instance of there being a problem.I notice CovidLive have updated their site, and are now showing both the cumulative case numbers AND the raw numbers for each day, so we can obsess accurately about the number dropping of from 14 days ago.
