Sort of in the goes around, comes around category:

QUOTE: After more than a year without a single case, Wuhan is again experiencing an uptick in infections. China reported 55 new locally transmitted cases on Monday as the Delta variant reached more than 20 cities in a dozen provinces.

I seriously doubt China's numbers are correct. I can't remember where but I read the other day they had around 400 active cases. In a country of 1.4bn and the country where the virus was created I find that very difficult to believe. There also has to be a reason why China cannot fill orders for semiconductors and major companies around the world are either closing production lines or getting Japan, Taiwan and South Korea to make up the shortfalls. I reckon the CCP's lies about virus numbers could well be that reason.

So I thought I'd try out the site for booking a vaccination. But, my bad luck with govt websites continues, after I put in my location there was a long pause then it crashed.

I don't think I will have that issue. There is a hub here, which can handle heavy vehicles, however the clinic I go to is also doing vaccinations.

I wonder if he could build a site that updates vaccination certificates properly...

I forgot to mention that on Tuesday arvo I fired the six scuds off and they should land on the relevant desks in the next week or so, given that all standard mail travels second class these days.

I will report any replies, reactions or just downright ignorance and blame-shifting as it occurs. If by some stroke of luck I get a good result, I'll report that too.

I definitely don't expect a response from Gladys. I don't think much of her at all or her affairs

If I don't get anywhere, I might e-mail Ben Fordham at 2GB about it and see what can happen following a bit of national publicity.

You have to be joking moment: Chairman Dan's Mob announced this morning that dead bugs had been found in the sewerage of several locations around Wangaratta, including mine. Fascinating as several of the locations mentioned including mine. Do not have reticulated sewerage its all Septic and they are individual systems.

And they expect us to believe they have there finger on the pulse; Think it to be elsewhere.

The thing with analysing sewerage is that it doesn't mean someone has contracted the virus. If someone has the virus on their hands and they wash them, the virus is flushed down the drain and possibly ends up in a sewerage sample. It doesn't necessarily mean that the virus found its way there via someones stool or wee. None of the places that have seen positive sewerage samples taken, have led to someone in that locality having or spreading the virus that I know of.

Now in WA at Broome they have found weak traces of the virus but as Marc has said to include ALL of Broome (and like he said all of Wangaratta) is rubbish as only the close in properties have a sewerage connection...Rest are all Septics.

I think that they just generalise when they release that sort of info...more as a warning to people in the area..like at Broome they have setup a popup Covid testing centre and open long hours and asking anyone with symptoms to go and get tested..best to be on the safe side particularly so with the Delta strain.

More likely here it a syndrome related narcissism & scare tactics, that are wearing seriously thin.
