Need to count hospital admissions and deaths. Not ‘new cases’. There will be ‘new cases’ for months/years!!! Stop the BS.

8-9 people in one household...

99% of cases are mild 0.75% of cases are hospitalised (in moderate to serious condition) 0.25% of cases die (majority of deaths are old or sick) Forget new cases, reduce death rate by locking down only aged care & hospitals;Contact trace & quarantine infected;Leave the rest alone

Bullshit.

Melburnians were oppressed by authoritarian evils - nothing to do with hard work.
