Sydney already abandoned covid zero and is continuing to get about 1,100 cases per day.


Flattening the curve. poo poo sucks.

Don't know how long we can hold out up here or whether we'll go straight into suppression rather than try elimination once more when we get cases again.

lol the one place left in western democracies that is virus free if so

Perth, Adelaide, Darwin, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Hobart... essentially everyone not named Sydney, Melbourne or Canberra are covid free. I'll never get to visit Queensland or Tasmania I guess. Luckily I saw Perth and Adelaide in Dec 2019 and Dec 2020 respectively.

The best part of the last six months has been the slow, dawning realization that every government in the world (except maybe China) is secretly incredibly jealous of the suicidal Open Biden US strategy. They're all just slowly testing the waters as to whether their populations are stupid enough to go along with it.

11 million people in Wuhan got quarantined because of a virus that started in a fish market. It only has a 3% mortality rate so far compared to SARS 10%. It causes pneumonia and is most deadly to old people and obese goons. Good luck.

COVID has divided America so much loving harder than Trump ever did and it's hilarious. We're not even broken down along political lines anymore. Brunch liberals are literally tearing each other apart over poo poo like whether kids should be wearing masks in schools, while the "real" anti-maskers (naturally no liberal could ever be an anti-masker because they FOLLOW THE SCIENCE) just stand in the background screaming incoherently and smearing themselves with horse paste.
