#LetItRip Australia
Australia went from #zerocovid to one of the deadliest places on Earth in 9 months. The other day Australia had 57 covid deaths from a total of 918 in the world. That is 5.8% of all covid deaths in the world are in Australia. For each death there will be more than 100 times #longcovid…

What is the difference between Taiwan, Portugal and Australia
Taiwan is fighting with the deadlier variant BA.2.2 that swept Hong Kong and got into China. Hence more deaths. Portugal is dealing with the more virulent BA.5.1, which is only just starting to grow in Europe and Australia. Holding it’s own against BA.5. Australia is play pretend there is no covid. #letitrip Below, you can…

McGowan thinks 1800-3600 deaths a year is okay. #Letitrip
In Western Australia, there are about 5 to 10 deaths a day, and the numbers are rising as well. This is 1800 to 3600 deaths a year in WA, and Premier McGowan wants to stop doing daily updates. This is plan ridiculous. It was okay to publish daily data when it was zeros but not…

Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 are making their move in Australia
The next wave of BA.4 and BA.5 variants of Omicron or B.2* are now making their move in Australia. Their prevalence may be close to 20% right now. 3% over the last 60 days but growing fast. NSW seems to be leading the charge. Hopefully this wave is milder still but there is still a…

#MPX lands in Perth
#MPX arrives into Perth, Western Australia. I believe there may be asymptomatic carriers (no rash) and aerosol may be a means of transmission (close contact-ish, semi droplet), but nowhere as bad as SARS-CoV2. Having said that, I do not think it is as infectious, and most people will have physical signs of #MPX. Australia now…

Australia is number one in Covid and Stupidity
Australia is number one in the world with respect to covid hotspots and Western Australia is number one in Australia. 9 months ago Australia was zerocovid. Now it is let it rip. We can live with 50 deaths a day or more. It is just like a Boeing 747 crashing once a week and everyone…

No more traffic infringement notices. #LetItRip.
In 2021, there were 1,123 road crash deaths. And because of this we have lots of laws to keep road deaths and trauma down. You must wear a seatbelt. You cannot speed more than 5 km/hr over the speed limit. You must obey all traffic signals. There is a red light camera at most intersections now.…

Pre-infection or vaccination will not stop you getting covid from variants BA.4 and BA.5
New data from South Africa shows that although 97% of people had been exposed to covid or had been vaccinated or both, they still have a fifth wave in South Africa. BA.4 and BA.5 are now being sequenced in Australia (NSW and WA), Europe and the USA, so the world is about to go through…

BA.4 and BA.5 detected in NSW and WA
As the title says BA.4 and BA.5 detected in NSW and WA. I have not seen any recorded cases of BA.4 and BA.5 in Queensland, Victoria, SA or Tasmania as yet. BA.4 and BA.5 will be our next covid wave, once the BA.2.* waves have finished, BA.2.12.1 and BA.2.10.1 look to have some more time…

Australians are dumb, SARS-CoV2 was made in a lab as a bioweapon.
I am not too happy Australia has just let covid rip like it is a common cold/flu, because it is not. It was made in a lab and as a bioweapon. That is well established now. Immunity to one variants does not give immunity to other variants. We will suffer the implications later as new…
