Just wondering if lack of contact with people may cause other problems. We build up immunity by getting infected with mild forms of a virus. This builds up our immune system. Because people are now washing hands more often and social distancing means we may not be getting the mild infections we used to get which our body could deal with.
So our immune system may be getting weaker because of lockdown.

I was a tour driver for years and that meant (especially back in the 90’s when we used to get foreign tourists) bus loads of people from all over the world breathing and coughing through the air cond, closed coach.
Sick as a dog for nearly two years, quite often.
Colds and flus.
Then never hardly caught anything for years, as different variants of corona viruses you can be immune to because you caught others.
A strong immune system.
Then went back to trucks for a number of years.
When I went back into tour work a few years ago……sick as a dog, often.
Expected it, hoped it wasn’t too bad but expected it.

You really have to laugh about the Queensland Premier’s constant mantra about keeping Queenslanders safe by the imposition of lockdowns and COVID restrictions. The most basic of services for the safety of citizens is the timely provision of ambulance and paramedic services.
How is this going?
We have been hearing horror stories of the high incidence of ramping outside casualty rooms at hospitals. Eight or nine ambulances queued up outside hospitals waiting for resources to free up inside and leaving patients at serious risk while waiting treatment are commonplace.
The ramifications of this cascade. Large numbers of paramedics are tied up in queues while other patients seeking urgent paramedic services are left waiting.
How serious is this situation? Well this happened to the SIL of a close friend of mine. Two weeks ago he suffered a heart attack at home in an inner Brisbane suburb not 15 minutes from a major public hospital. The ambulance was called and those looking after him waited more than 90 minutes for the ambulance to arrive. This is probably the most urgent case they are called upon to attend but it took more than 90 minutes to respond.
That man died in hospital a couple of days ago. He was 43 with a wife and children.
The premier is keeping Queenslanders safe with her every waking moment. What a fraud?

Australian GPs Can Legally Prescribe Ivermectin Triple Therapy Protocol — Professor Thomas Borody
https://www.australiannationalreview.com/state-of-affairs/australian-gps-can-legally-prescribe-ivermectin-triple-therapy-protocol-professor-thomas-borody/“
The take up will not be very big. People with flu like symptoms are excluded from GP clinics and are sent off for testing. While awaiting the testing results they are isolated at home and if they test positive they remain quarantined at home or admitted to hospital as appears to be the case in Qld. They are under the care of the Dept of Health.
This means that COVID is effectively taken out of the hands of GPs. The state health ministers have made it clear that Ivermectin or other re purposed medicines are not recommended for use. Patients would have to remove themselves from health Department control and seek treatment from their GP.
This is not likely as GPs don’t want to risk their practices being closed down after exposure to COVID.
It’s a bit of a Catch 22 situation.

Younger brother lives in the Blue Mountains, his girlfriend in Avalon. As I mentioned she is a Dr who is currently working as a locum in a regional hospital. As she had an accident a few weeks ago that left her with an injury that means she cannot drive, so my brother drives from Blue Mntns to Avalon to a motel in (town), backwards and forwards from motel to hospital (at least once a day in each direction), back to Avalon, then home. They have a letter from NSW Health permitting this.
So now when he drives her home from (town), about 4 hours out of Sydney), he cannot stay with her, despite having stayed with her for 7 days in (town)

Sure, our premiers and their minions are telling all and sundry that we need the jab to keep us safe.
But I haven’t heard them say that the jab itself is safe.
Nor have I heard them say how, in what ways, exactly, the jab might work to keep us safe.
Rather, the premiers and their minions have stopped short of saying that the jab will actually prevent catching the virus.
They have stopped short of saying that, once jabbed, we are not carriers of the virus.
They have stopped short of saying that the jab minimises the severity of the effects of the virus.
They have stopped short of saying that jabbing is most likely and at best, futile, and at worst, …. who knows.
Perhaps the premiers should be asked whether the singular rationale for the jab is the jab. That would make more sense.

Dovetails very well with Malcolm Roberts’ speech.
It’s as if the authorities want to totally discredit themselves. What better way of doing that than dogmatically pursuing one answer which is only modestly effective, with serious side effect issues, yet bury any discussion of an alternative method that has few side effects, is widely used and which appears to be even more effective than the vaccines, especially against the Indian strain which we’re having so much trouble with right now.

One can see the bias in Wikipedia by going on the “talk” pages for each subject and reading about the fierce attempts of editors to add these facts and the stone wall refusals by the “senior” editors who have an agenda.
I was only mentioning that very thing a couple of days ago. I used to do some editing of Wikipedia but if my edits didn’t match the ‘approved’ line, my edits would not be endorsed/accepted by the senior editor. Comments about accuracy and ensuring Wiki was up-to-date didn’t seem to make a difference. I had a couple of blues over the time and eventually gave up.
I did get changes through on things that were perceived as benign but anything that could be considered ‘controversial’ was verboten. Accuracy be damned.

These NSW “cases” are spiking because of lockdown but GlaChaHa cannot acknowledge that and change course because it would constitute not only an admission of unprecedented negligence but a hanging offence to boot.
Sad Glad – and Sneakers and The Chook – learned from the master, Andrews, that the thing to do is to double, triple and quadruple down on lockdowns until the simultaneity of your latest iteration of that literally sickening policy – and the downslope of the bell curve – saves your political life.
These politicians are literally killing people and destroying lives to protect themselves. And the media is driving it all because COVID is making a fortune for them and their owners.
Only massive, rolling and ceaseless marches and civil disobedience will end this.
The next big thing is ‘vaccine’ failure.

I think it’s time to set your personal limit of how much more of this utter bullshit you’re willing to take.
It’s important if you do so that you pick a line ahead of time and stick to it.
If two years of intermittent lockdowns is your limit, lock that number in, start deciding what you’re going to do once we get there.
If depriving you of work unless vaccinated is your line in the sand, lock it in and start deciding on a plan for when that happens.
If watching the coppers head kick one more lockdown protestor is your line, lock it in and decide on actions.
If we just let it run on without a clear line, we’ll end up in three years time with the joint utterly destroyed.

Of course, paracetamol relieves pain for millions and modern medicine cures vastly more people than it kills. So, we judge, on balance, the rewards of both outweigh the risks. This view permeates everything we do from driving cars to going to the beach
That perspective is so “yesterday.” Now, no-one is allowed to do anything without the state (as I typed that it came out as stasi) sanctioning it first.
And on the registering with the police of a friend; I would rather stay on my own than submit myself to that humiliation.

Bugger. I gave Latham the timeserver an extra year. The next election he faces is in March 2027.

It is now two weeks since Cat3 came into existence. I have been catching up with the comments on the threads, in this new version. While many are informative and worth reading (same as Cat2), there are some comments and handles here that provide an insight into the commenters.
Here are two scenarios.
One
Cat2 shut down on August 1 and there were some spin off sites to go to, if one should so choose. But there is nothing similar to what we enjoyed, previously. Those of us who used to come to the blog have nowhere to go to, unless we want the alternative sites.
Sometime in the future, there will be a Cat3 – a perfect blog with all the bells and whistles, perfect moderation, perfectly free of swamp creatures.
But by then, many will have given up and will not know how to find their way to the blog, whenever and wherever it appears. In the meantime, we have nothing. We have to get used to being without the Cat blog, the same way we did last year. But that was just one weekend.
Two
We have a site to come in to that is similar to the last one. We got a link for the new site before the old one closed, so all those following the Final Forum would have received the address for their new chat room. We have not been left out in the cold, thinking it is all over, and having no idea of what will happen next.
It is a work-in-progress blog where we have been able to continue a seamless shift from the previous (Cat2) to a new one (Cat3). It is not perfect. It has all kinds of bugs and flaws. But we have these threads and forums to keep chatting, sharing, discussing and debating. And we can find a way to navigate through the threads — scrolling, skimming or stopping to read, depending on the sense we possess.
We have this blog because someone worked quickly to put it together, at short notice. Someone who has other commitments, but still made the time to let us have this discussion area. There was a thread Site Fixes and a Contact page for anyone to post feedback, and some have done so. While the bugs are being fixed, the site is still (imperfectly) functional and we can keep coming in each day to read and comment.
If we recognise this, we will be grateful and patient. And do our bit to help maintain the standards of the blog, not drag it down.

Odd that I’m not hearing news of Ben Roberts-Smith’s totally straight Afghan accusers having been killed by the Taliban.
🤔
The state of this country. The sheer state of it. The decorated terror of these animals is to be prosecuted for killing them. Which was his job.

Is there a collective noun for rectum?
A parliament of rectums?
A cabinet of rectums
Muddy, don’t over think it (h/t that milk ad).
Arseholes, is what you’re looking for.

The ‘personal limits’ need an enabling retrospectivity clause.

Stopping people going for a stroll would definitely be over my personal line.
For us elderly Boomers, walking (preferably in deep sand or up a hill) is a major form of exercise. Years ago, I was given medical advice to walk 40 minutes a day if weather permits. I intend to follow that advice.

I still think getting a vaccine reduces someone’s risk of dying from covid.
I haven’t seen anything presented here or anywhere else to make me think otherwise.
That has nothing to do with the Australian government turning itself inside out trying make Australia covid zero.

kaysee, #2 it is. The only way to improve on the standard is to keep using the report comment button when abuse of one particular group of people occurs.
Adam’s done a great job to keep us all going.
I’m sure that over time we’ll be back to where we were. As you’ve noted, The Cat is worth is it and now more than ever.

”I still think getting a vaccine reduces someone’s risk of dying from covid.”
You have that on medical authority? You’ve read the trials? Seen the success rates of an independent double-blind long-term study? Read about them anywhere credible?
No. But you go ahead and ”think” away.

At last, a proper lockdown in NSW with proper enforcement.

I think I’m about two months more of this utter bullshit away from recommending all our “journalists”, politicians and public health wankers get an arsefull of rosellas inserted with extreme prejudice.

The state of this stupid stupid country. The sheer state of it.
It is indeed monstrous, CL. These are insane times. Bass ackwards does not even come close to describing it.
An unrelenting existential nightmare more like.
There is no coming back from this bizarre insanity. I had a lengthy argument with my older brother this arvo about why all this shit is so wrong. He’s an aged personage of the boomer persuasion, so his hooves were anchored tight.
He hates Beryl G as much as I do, but for entirely different reasons.
On a purely selfish note (for a change) I just want my old life back. Which at this point, means I’ll have to go out there and forcibly reclaim it. No one will do it for me and nor should they be expected to.
We all will, or it’s off to the labour camps and then the ovens.
Is that a fate you want, peoples? A fate you want for your children and grand children?

I declare October 14th “Rosella Day”. The day when if this lot hasn’t figured it out we grab them, bend them over and insert native Australian birdlife up there rectums past the point of maximum capacity.

Obviously I mean “their rectums”.
“there rectums” is a day in Bendigo.
