Yes, people are still dying of Covid in Australia.

Even with the almost total lack of reporting now being done by our governments.

Australia's weekly reported COVID numbers: 24 November 2023

Quote:
Jurisdiction / Cases / Deaths

🔹SA: 2,065 / NR
🔹TAS: 969 / 4
🔹ACT: 488 / 1
🔹VIC: (No data) / 43

🔹WA: (No data)
🔹NSW: (No data)
🔹QLD: (No data)
🔹NT: (No data)

NR = Not Reported


48
 deaths reported this week from only 3 States (43 of those deaths in Victoria). I imagine the number would sadly be considerably higher if the rest of the States and the NT were still reporting.

Case numbers once again would need to multiplied by 100 (at least) to get anywhere near the true number.

Meanwhile, the disgrace that is Covid deaths in aged care continues unabated.

COVID-19 outbreaks in Australian residential aged care facilities: 23 November 2023

Quote:
🔹Active cases: 2,214 (-211)
🔹Active outbreaks: 301 (-8)
🔹Residents: 1,532 (-136)
🔹Staff: 682 (-16)
🔹Reported deaths in 2023: 1,255 (+25)


Quote:
🔸6,022 aged care COVID deaths since beginning of pandemic

🔸686 reported deaths in 2020
🔸226 reported deaths in 2021
🔸3,855 reported deaths in 2022
🔸1,255 reported deaths in 2023


But, just keep washing those hands and I'm sure everything will eventually be OK (not) and remember... especially if you're in NSW... be kind to people who choose to wear a mask (that's the 4th time they've posted that BS in a week).  Roll Eyes

There's a cooker in your comms team.
If there's even an once of integrity left at @NSWHealth and the @NSWCHO, advise the public appropriately.
Wear a good mask, preferably N95 when you're out.
And cut the kindness crap.


Agreed. 100%

you need to stop following the half dozen OCD mask cult nutters and get back into the mainstream

you have wandered down a rabbit hole just like nail

My partner's daughter—in Melbourne—recently
contracted COVID from her partner, who unknowingly
contracted it at his workplace and brought it home.

She's barely got any symptoms other than a sniffle,
and is still working at home (as she normally does).

He showed more influenza-type symptoms, and
spent a couple of days in bed, but is now up and
heading back to work next week.

I know both of them had at least two vaccinations
initially, but they seemed not to have followed up
with their boosters.  I don't know if this is significant
or not.

I believe there needs to some sort of investigation into what's going on at NSW "Health" lately.

5 times in a week

Quote:
COVID-19 transmission continues to increase in NSW, with community transmission now moderate to high.

Do you need to refresh your COVID-safe habits to stop the spread of illness and protect others?


There can be no doubt whatsoever that they're just deliberately trolling now and it's about time someone was held accountable.

Disgraceful behaviour from a so called Health Department - especially with Covid running rampant in NSW (and the rest of Australia) and still causing a lot of illness and deaths.

hi carl

if everyone is ignoring the threat, its probably because there isnt one.

i have a new rabbit hole for you to go down.

research the effect of worry on the immune system

the devestating health consequences of worrying about covid are undoubtedly trashing your immune system

the people you follow on twitter are a direct threat to your health

Well, it would seem that NSW "Health" do know about the benefits of wearing a mask.

Guidance on wearing face masks

Last updated: 24 November 2023

Of course, you need to go looking for it like I've just done.

Can't upset the economy by having too many people wearing masks again - especially with Christmas just around the corner.

Yes, people are still dying every week from this "mild respiratory virus" and "big nothing burger".

Australian weekly COVID-19 overview 1st December 2023 - dbRaevn

77
 deaths reported from 5 States.

Including another
26
 reported deaths in aged care.

COVID-19 outbreaks in Australian residential aged care facilities: 30 November 2023 - Denis - the COVID info guy

Quote:
🔹Active cases: 1,946 (-117)
🔹Active outbreaks: 299 (+15)
🔹Residents: 1,334 (-84)
🔹Staff: 612 (-33)
🔹Reported deaths in 2023: 1,281 (+26)


And still not a word from any of our politicians. Disgraceful.

Tim here has a theory about that

Quote:
Why won’t @AlboMP do anything to reduce COVID transmission?

Or even talk about COVID?

LIABILITY

The Govt have received confidential legal advice without a doubt

It’s why @PeterDutton_MP remains silent as well

A truly bipartisan approach to killing Australians 💀


Bullseye!

Wow, looks like Victoria really isn't "the place to be" right now with
68
 Covid deaths added this week.

Australian weekly COVID-19 overview 8th December 2023 - dbRaevn

Plus 9 deaths from the States that are still providing numbers and the total deaths for this week is
77
.

The ridiculously low number of (PCR test only) cases are also on the increase, especially in Queensland (up 20.7%).

Wonder what aquascoot's hero, Dr. Gerrard, is going to do about that? Nothing, of course.

Hope no one in Townsville needs to go to hospital anytime soon.

This all could have been avoided if the Health Minister mandated masks for staff & visitors instead of listening to Dr Death. No wonder Annastacia is in trouble politically.

But QLD CHO Dr Death said 3 weeks ago:
-Covid waves are "getting less severe"
-There's no need to mandate masks in hospitals, they're "disproportionate" to the risk posed
-The "greatest risk" are for the over 65's.

I'm shocked that this isn't true!🙄

Thanks Geoff.

Meanwhile, still in Victoria.

Covid deaths in Victoria have soared to 166 in the most recent reporting period, with nearly 60 per cent of lives lost in a younger age bracket than before. It comes as a potentially dangerous new variant, JN. 1, surfaces in the state


Not just the 'oldies' being killed by Covid anymore. Looks like there might be a bit less "flourshing" by aquascoot's precious young people happening now.

Surprised to see the Herald Sun covering this but I'll bet it isn't in their printed newspaper (that the majority of people read).

So the News Corp papers make a big deal about the
climbing COVID death rate in Victoria, and the increasing
youthfulness of some of those deceased but then—
socially bankrupt and irresponsibly—puts the report
behind a paywall.

This is typical of Rupert Murdoch's cynical money-grubbing
style of news reporting.  Hopefully this repugnant old man
will be dead by this time next year.

Australian weekly COVID-19 overview

https://nitter.net/dbRaevn/status/1735549166548668429#m

Another
57
 deaths reported this week (from the States that are still reporting).

47 of those deaths were in Victoria. 5 more in WA.

Once again, the case numbers are absurdly low because it's PCR tests only (for those who bother to get tested). No RATs.

And, yes... this would not surprise me at all:

Betting NSW has been recording > 100 deaths per week from covid since the reporting went monthly. probably up around 300 deaths per week this week but we'll not know and you can bet Minns and Park will be in np hurry to publish the data at the end of the current 4 wk period.


Aged care Covid outbreaks and deaths also continue.

I notice Denis always 'tags' Anika Wells, Mark Butler and Anthony Albanese with these shocking aged care Covid case and death numbers every week but it's blantantly obvious that none of them give a sh!t... especially Wells (Federal Minister for Aged Care and Sport... but probably 99% Sport of course).

The longer they remain silent the worse it is going to be for them when they are eventually held accountable (and that applies to ALL of the pollies)... not too long now, I hope.

sounds like covid is here to stay and is going to continue to take out those with poor health

the message is

dont let yourself fall into poor health

take some "personal responsibility"

like this guy

Peter Anderson joined Surf Life Saving in 1997 at the ripe age of 61. After retiring, Peter was keen to try something different and decided surf life saving would be an interesting challenge. 23 years on and Peter said, “it’s probably the most rewarding, fulfilling and exciting thing I’ve ever done with my life.” 

Peter has been involved in many rescues over his 20 years but will never forget a mass rescue involving 51 people who had washed off a collapsed sandbank He says he remembers “seeing a forest of arms in the air,” but luckily each of the 51 victims were rescued which he explained was “hugely rewarding.”   

Now 80 years old, nothing is going to stop Peter. He says surf life saving “… certainly keeps me young, it keeps me fit, it keeps me active, it keeps me alert… I love it and I’ll stay as long as it gives me pleasure.”
