You are not beating Covid by hiding. You only create more hardships.

Covid gives zero fricks about these control measures. The fact that we are seeing near zero seasonal flu cases so far is more evidence of this.

The absolute nanny state that Melbourne put themselves in isn’t possible in the USA.

Their restrictions were insane

And they will blow up once they reopen. It is a solid trend that we can all bank on. Let's protect the most at risk, do our best to social distance, wear masks and open back up.

They haven't been in lockdown that long. And they have finally started testing more which they weren't doing before.

Just ignore that, this is what they put into place

When did the lockdown start?

The stage four restrictions covering metropolitan Melbourne began on Sunday 2 August.
Additional restrictions on businesses were announced on Monday 3 August, and most of them started from Thursday 6 August.

When can I leave my house?

You are only allowed to leave your house for four reasons: shopping for food and essential items, care and caregiving, daily exercise and work. Employers must support you to work from home if you can work from Unlike stage three, there is now a curfew on Melbourne residents between 8pm and 5am.
From midnight 13 September, that curfew will start one hour later, from 9pm to 5am.
Caregiving includes managing shared custody arrangements, using a babysitter, leaving home to care for animals housed elsewhere, visiting someone in an aged care home and visiting someone in hospital. Specific directions apply.
You can leave your house if you are at risk of family violence or to apply for an intervention order, and to attend court or a police station.
You can also leave your house to access medical services. This time around, that explicitly includes leaving your house to give blood. Access to medical services is unrestricted: you can access them anywhere in Victoria.


How far can I travel from home?

Shopping for food and necessary supplies must be done within 5km distance from your home, except if the nearest supermarket is further than 5km.
Only one person per household can leave to go shopping per day.
Exercise must take place within 5km of home, and must be in metropolitan Melbourne. Exercise is limited to one hour, once per day. From midnight 13 September, exercise is limited to two hours, and can be broken up into two blocks.

Exercise can only happen within 5km of home. Exercise is limited to one hour, once per day. This is extended to two hours, broken up into a maximum of two blocks per day from midnight 13 September.
As of 19 August, you are allowed to drive to a location in order to exercise there, but your destination must be within 5kms of your home and must be the closest practicable location.
Time spent in the car driving to and from your location is included in the one-hour time limit.
Swimming pools, playgrounds and gyms are shut, and community sport is also stopped.
You can exercise with one other person, including members of your household.
Meeting one other person for social interaction outdoors i.e. a picnic, for a maximum of two hours is allowed under this rule from midnight 13 September.

You cannot have visitors or go to another person’s house unless it is for the purpose of giving or receiving care. You can leave your house to visit a person if you are in an “intimate personal relationship” with them. That is, there is no “bonk ban”.

quote:
Cleaners, tradespeople, gardeners, painters and renovators are not allowed to visit your house for work. Exceptions exist for emergency issues like a burst pipe, and for providing care for welfare and wellbeing like Meals on Wheels . But “it’s not the time to be painting your house or having unnecessary, non-urgent work happen,” Andrews said on Monday.

Australia Zero New Covid Cases After Lockdown




with zero status towards heard immunity, they we see a spike or will need to go back in to lockdown.....


lock down will only delay... the same way the virus got there to begin with it will get there again. they will have a new patient zero and it will spread again.

key is protecting high at risk, and keeping the numbers under medical limits of treatment.....

Australia from your link:

quote:

The economy shrank 7% in the three months to the end of June, the biggest quarterly contraction since records began in 1959. Unemployment hit a 22-year high of 7.5% in July as businesses and borders closed.


all this just t buy some time.....

you either get heard immunity or have a mass produced vaccine..... lock down just kicks the can down the road...
