riotproof Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 A big thank you to all of you here who got tested recently - you’re the reason the lockdown’s ended. The numbers were just wonderful. 130k over 5 days I think I heard. 212,000 l'm happy to say! Even better! Thanks for that. I was doing something at the same time.

Andi Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Rachel got the claws out now. Dan, Jeroen and Brett were firing on all cylinders today. Great to see them push back and deal with yet more of the same old questions . I couldn't watch yesterday's presser, because Mondays was just so awful. I couldn't really hear the questions today (ABC wasn't picking them up well, and noisy children) but yesterday, Alex I think it was started asking about last year's curfew not being on the advice of Sutton yet again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She'd probably turn up at the pressers anyway and act out her inane questions via charades. At least that'd be entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oriental lily Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Does anyone know for sure ( as sure as you can be at this crazy time ) that Tasmanian borders will stay closed until two weeks from a local covid case in vic ? DH and two of my girls were supposed to fly to Tassie for a wedding next week end . I am presuming they will have no travel for none essentials for a good while but DH is still clinging to hope now the lockdown is lifted . Google seems to confirm this but maybe ???

purplekitty Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Well done again ,Victoria. I really think there will be many articles written in the future about how Victoria dealt with some challenging situations and the cooperation of Victorians themselves.

I think that remains the case - they haven't announced anything to the contrary and it is what they've done before. However, QLD is treating this cluster slightly differently, so there's some hope for Tassie I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonMyrtle Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Glad schools back. Everything else is meh. As long as working from home is still a thing, we basically live a lockdown life anyway. We are boring, and stuck at home working, 90% of the time.Was going to swim at the in-laws Friday but can’t now cause SIL has decided her family is visiting instead. So that’s annoying. But I’d rather not be there when she is anyway, so we likely would have cancelled either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RynandStompy Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I'm very very glad at schools going back, lockdown circuit breaker ending..and look at the test numbers and contact tracing results! That's a lot of Victorians who got tested and absolutely stonking effort by the testing and lab staff.Huge thanks to the remaini g hundreds? (thousands ??) of people still isolating the remainder of their 14days so that the rest of us can go out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Bicycle Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Ok Auckland has dropped a level so pretty much on par with us, except they don't need masks indoors and they have to have single person, seated service in bars and resturants. The poor high school is staying closed and everyone at the school has to return a negative by next week to be able to return.We are all probably celebrating.
