Which when asked to show Scummo has consistently declined.

Kelly said yesterday that they would start releasing the details on their modelling this week and his department was working on preparing it. We might see the answer on Thursday

Speaking of suicide. The constant nagging to get stuff done around the house could cause it or a lot of DV.

When you write stuff like nagging causes DV you are excusing the person doing the abuse and blaming the victim of the abuse.

If nagging someone to do chores results in DV then this country is truly in the s**t.

No they aren't loose cannons.
They are abusers, they need counseling and they need help and they need to not be living with the people they are abusing.

When you write nagging will lead to an increase in DV you are saying it is the fault of the person nagging. It's like saying well if they'd just kept their mouth shut. It's victim blaming.

It's a big part of our culture and we do with with more than just victims of domestic violence
We do it with the poor, the homeless, the victims of sexual assault

Our politicians and media is geared around it for the most part.

You don't change that view by using the language that reinforces it

I don’t think any epidemiologist would like to be tied to any of the modelling available at the moment, which is what would happen if governments started publishing “official projections”.

I'm getting the impression you very much like the word epidemiologist lol

 

[Billy ray]

I still have tradies coming to my place. Just have them wash hands often and stay home if sick

 

[Cuzz09]

Fair call.

A choir decided to go ahead with rehearsal. Now dozens of members have COVID-19 and two are dead

The deadly outbreak among members of a choir has stunned health officials, who have concluded that the virus was almost certainly transmitted through the air from one or more people without symptoms.

Who doesn’t! The way it rolls off the tongue makes like it feel like it should be in a Gilbert and Sullivan number.

The very model of a modern epidemiologist.

I remember being in Jakarta during the Asian financial crisis in 1998 and walking into their huge mutli-story shopping complexes. They were almost empty, except for us. Every shop you went into you were immediately swamped by 5 to 10 staff members, it was unnerving and we ended up leaving each one a lot quicker than we had planned to.

It turns out that Suharto had forbidden businesses from sacking staff. They had to be kept on and paid to keep the economy ticking over.

 

[Richard Cranium]

People asking for long term models are being more than a bit greedy. We barely know anything about the actual spread, the death rate, the impact of social distancing and the lock downs...

Let's get through at least a week of serious action first.

 

[Richard Pryor]

As a bit of a 'through the looking glass' India is a model for the path we could have gone down if the gov. kept up the rhetoric and approach they did in the first couple of days

People In India Are Dropping Dead After Walking Hundreds of Miles During Coronavirus Lockdown

India's sudden lockdown left millions of migrant workers stranded far from their home cities.

Prince Charles out of self-isolation.
Good to see the laws don't apply to the royals

With the job-keeper program announced yesterday,

I've basically been told there is nothing for me to do until this pandemic has passed so don't come in.
If my employer were to apply for the funding, do I have to be engaged in work or is the fund there to continue paying the employee in like a holding pattern until the employee's job becomes tenable again?

"or other goods and services" under (a) is so broad though... is there any guidance on that? besides jigsaw puzzles?

Edit: nevermind, saw later posts which provide a bit more clarity

As far as I know it's option B
It's the government paying your employer, who then forwards it on to you, to keep you on the books while there's no work for you.

That's how I am seeing it too, my employer is arguing with me that they have no work for me, and I keep saying, that's what the program is for, to prevent overloading Centrelink.

 

[Caesar]

that's what the program is for, to prevent overloading Centrelink.

That and stopping the government having to report 30% unemployment.

 

[Over The Post]

Was in a shop recently, staff member barking like a dog. Anything I bring in from shop is wiped with disinfectant before it gets put in pantry / fridge / freezer.

Went to the local supermarket this morning, glasses, mask and gloves. The only person with any PPE. It truly was business as usual. Stuck out like dogs balls and got some real strange looks. Too bad. Gloves in the bin before I hopped in the car. Made sure to clean the shopping with alcohol when I got home.
