@profesterman People saying the numbers are high. Have we forgotten when we were having 50k cases a day?

@migga Feels weird not seeing daily numbers when you log in. New normal is good though.

@FionaPWME @profesterman It’s a very interesting virus. Apparently in some parts of NZ you can only visit the hospitals after 3pm because of covid. Presumably the virus is contagious before then but after it’s ok 🤨

@profesterman Strange how a contagious virus, whose sole agenda is to reproduce by infecting new hosts, has decided to take weekends off 🤔 🙄 🤔

@erin_social311 @Raf_Epstein Yea that’s how it reads, there’s another letter that makes it sound like a compulsory mandate though

@AbagiLisa @Raf_Epstein Sounds like the service is basically requiring it of parents at drop off/pick up? Haven’t heard anything from our centre yet..

Helpful aren’t they? Simple science & advice saying masks are a good idea at school is weaponised as - “madness”

@YouAreLobbyLud They still have a mandate in place for retail settings.

In the supermarket in Christchurch, New Zealand. Everyone is masked, many N95s. I'm in shock.

@RichmdSewerRat Thanks to Murdoch Media

Early pandemic wave indicator 👇🦠🦠

@martydownunder4 @VicGovDH Spring? Christmas?

We thank everyone who got vaccinated and tested yesterday. Our thoughts are with those in hospital, and the families of people who have lost their lives. More data soon: coronavirus.vic.gov.au/victorian-coro… #COVID19Vic #COVID19VicData

@tess_moodie @AlboMP @jeremyrockliff Does your school not provide rats?

Box of 5 #RATs cost $50. My kiddo has #COVID19 and we have to test each family member before they leave the house for 7 days. 21 tests = $210 in a week. No wonder it's rampant. Who can afford this? Make RATs free! @AlboMP @jeremyrockliff

@profesterman @ConversationEDU We flew into NZ 2 weeks ago. Negative pre departure supervised RAT, supplied 3 tests each on arrival for day 1 and 5. Mask are still mandatory here in retail, public transports, hospitality etc. So far so good

@Reasonableques3 @stephenjduckett I often think this but no one ever brings it up. What is the alternative? Everyone complaining about how things are going but no one suggests what we should do otherwise 🤷🏻‍♀️

National #COVID-19 plan still going well: 23 deaths per day since plan released, compared to <2 per day before plan = 5 'bad flu seasons' in 8 months. Media has moved on, but COVID still with us.

@jayweingarten Yes

Please let me know if you understand this post. All you have to do is look at it and comment yes if you understand.

@WhatTimeDan PTSD trigger 🥴

@bedward36141403 @MJA_Editor Can you tell me the science behind mandating masks for staff in retail and hospitality but not customers? You can go into work as a customer to buy something but not have to wear a mask but the minute your shift starts you have to wear it?

@AbagiLisa @MJA_Editor So should smoking in pubs and cafes, I'm sure you'll agree. And drink-driving is about taking personal responsibility, no need for a law, surely?

For now wearing a mask is still very sensible. Despite the easing of restrictions. ‘More comfortable with masks’: Voters want some COVID restrictions to stay smh.com.au/politics/nsw/m…

@AndrewPatrick_ @kerplunk_au @benitakolovos It makes zero since. I thought I was free until a co-worker pointed out retail staff have to wear them. Why can’t it be a personal choice?

@kerplunk_au @benitakolovos 100% we are over it! I want to know the health advice behind that decision.

@nathanwalsh33 @heidimur And it knows the difference between hospitality staff and patrons 🤔

Most masks off ...by the weekend:

@heidimur Only if it’s required to show my vaccine pass. Otherwise nope.

Hands up if you’ve been religiously QRing of late....?!

@SiouxsieW @NewsomCA @covid19nz @henrycooke 45% increase on their number today from yesterday. I think rules will change.

This feels like a dumb question but in October when borders reopen to international visitors are any of the self isolation rules being retained ? @SiouxsieW @covid19nz @henrycooke

@liam_mcdonald14 @MishStephenson @jacindaardern 🤤🤤

@MishStephenson @jacindaardern Been every year to hit Queenstown, desperately craving a fergburger (iykyk). Won’t book again at the risk of not being able to go.
