Ba ha ha ... not sure they do 'in car' service. ( comments on whose vehicle that is could be a bit inflammatory )

 

[Puntaddict]

Does anyone know how many people are innocently killed in car accidents each year in Australia ?
Or how many suicides there are ?
Or how many 'accepted' Influenza deaths occer annually ?
Or any other number of "normal life" Doctor mistakes ..
Of course not, you don't even give it a thought .. you haven't given it a thought for years I'd guess .. be honest now.
SO my qu .. what the heck is this Covid ACTUALLY all about ??
I'm damned if I believe it's about saving lives , coz that's the one thing these Polly Waffle elected imbiciles are NOT doing. Millions are dying ..
Yes, I'm widely open to a legitimate argument as to what Covid is all about .. but for now the lockdown seems a reasonable tact .. IMO

Easy! Ita very contagious to the state of ruining health system, and subsequently society panic. Look at India to see what happened now, when the health system failed.

Would agree in part that there maybe Doctors and Nurses that would normally be working here but are currently overseas, but I would have thought the majority of them would have relocated here to live unlike say the International Students that travel back home every chance they get???

The Major factor our hospitals are having issues is because of the governments lack of forward thinking or willingness to put their ass on the line and spend the "?" Billion and not still be in power when it is completed

Even as a kid I can remember needing to wait many hours at either Freo or RPH Emergency Department and now in my 50's and what has changed?
They kindly built Fiona Stanley to ease the pressure and then promptly closed down Freo hospital (Turned it into a support facility for Fiona Stanley)
So I am not sure how building one and then closing one puts us ahead of the bed shortage? For the Emergency Department they report an average waiting time of around 60 minutes? But in my experience tat is more like a Minimum waiting time unless you are at risk of dying in the waiting room
I have recently experienced a family member needing to be kept in Emergency for nearly a week just because there were no available beds on the wards. Then after a week of their operation (70+ year old broken Hip) they were deemed fit to return home BUT needed to return as an outpatient for a couple of hours each day for therapy treatments and they (Hospital/Government) spent thousands modifying their home to enable them to move around!

Will they ever spend the time and money to build another hospital to cope with the growing population?
And I mean build something for tomorrow so it solves a problem for years, not build something that is over run by the time it is completed

Actually a lot of the overseas ones do not relocate. They come on working visa's.

I also agree that we have way to many who go to hospitals for things they should be going to their GP for and the meth heads,,well that's a hard one.

Sorry to hear about your family member. There are enough beds,,,just unfortunately as international borders are closed there is no-one to staff them.

The issue is most definitely not an easy fix, that's for sure.

Greg Hunt has stolen Mark McGowan's thunder - he has announced at his media conference that there were zero (0) Community COVID Cases in Australia in the last 24 hours. Interesting to see if lockdown is lifted or if there are any restrictions that will still be imposed.

Now listen up everyone! ....... Has anyone noticed that when we are not thinking with the little head we've been having intelligent, respectful, thoughtful discussions.
Don't tell the women.

This was a sneaky trick by Melody to distract us.

Yes, correct it seems.

But many times too in the last 14 months they've announced this, but a few hours timewise before anything is available from WA. Some reports have always been a bit east coast centric.

Don't jump to dumb conclusions!! I haven't punted at LTs for years and I'm not about to restart either. I'm just interested to know what they are doing. Exit!

A young fella at work on friday night asked me if this long weekend was for the queens birthday.

 

[beachbandit]

When i was trapped here for 9 months last year with border closures i was amazed on how many didnt know what was happening in the rest of oz. Sure they knew about ruby princess and dan the man but that was it. Thought WA was the only state doing ok cos that what they heard from mcclown.
