I have confirmed my accusation, that PCR tests are overpriced and a new tax on travel, and implied to be inefficient so as to spread the pork among the labs. Certainly it will diminish spur of the moment weekend travel. Here is a Thailand travel horror story: Tourists returning to Thailand...

Tread carefully or lawyers will push the natural justice angle. Someone on a trial vaccine is worthy of an exception or a special waiver after full consideration, not some preconceived notion. They guy has presented a valid argument, and narrow black letter law interpretations follow. Mixed...

Solution for those churlish Health workers in Qld and SA who refuse to get the jab. I say have them de-registered, then have payroll call the bank and tell them the employee has been suspended without pay. Actions have consequences. If they want to be re-registered, they will loose seniority, or...

What was the bulk price the Cwth was paying the pathology labs for covid testing? Around the AUD $45 mark? I would imagine the plane/ carrier would make more money doing PCR tests on the plane than selling meals, toys and goods. Maybe in the lounge or gate area. Time for the airlines to work...

Not sure is this belongs in news area, but I read somewhere J&J (one shot), has very high transmissible figures, even dropping to single digits over time. A second dose of J&J fixes matters. TGA and ATAGI should be very wary about allowing single shot J&J in. For travel, like it or not, new...

Denmark , Israel and the USA are already giving boosters. In ACT one mobile 80yo with high blood pressure and blood thinners was told she could not be vaccinated. One M obese and diabetic has already had 3 Pfizer doses. I am told the novovax will be reserved initially, for under 12yo's. These...

Operations Research and Travel Covid booster economics. It is my opinion that Australians traveling overseas should get a booster before going OS. Is there a travel insurance actuary who can confirm this? With a minimum of 3 months since the last dose. Why? Because breakthrough infections are...

Time for Australia's internationally disgraceful travel ban -need permission to leave is abolished. There are howls in the USA associating Australia with the likes of North Korea, and former Soviet block glory days. Can I say NO other country in the world did this. And we were misled when 70%...

There is HUGE demand for SYD-> India seats. Most of the ICT Indians I know left Aus on whatever bucket fare, then caught MH or some other carrier back to their cities. So yes, QF can make hay while via SG or KUL/BKK is down.

Dan's Junk mail a targeted members deal- Drambuie 1lit $94 (was $80 before that) when 59 at First Choice, and I recently got some from Aldi for 52/53 dollars. If 9.4 100ml then $65.80 for 700 eq. I can tell you Drambie of Today is inferior, lower quality whiskey than 10 years ago - yes I have...

I agree B+W is far better, except the NSW one has a much higher density, and gives my budget $125 phone issues. The same phone has no problems with the ACT QR codes, not a bit. If you suspect it could be the app, someone should be testing this. The cost of a color print at Kmart or OfficeWorks...

The DESIGN and the gathering of REQUIREMENTS for ICT implementation has been woeful. Of course they want batch numbers, so that the trauma of finding breakthrough cases can be minimised should they get too many positives/forgeries from one nation. While here, the electronic chip in your...

BBC debunks ivermectin by John Campbell. The takehome is it debunks nothing, and the opinion piece lacks references. Then there is a claim that people are being paid/employed to debunk IV (in another video). From 23:56 Japanese Research- Merck said it has no intention of starting clinical trials...

Dang, I watch so little television nowadays, 19 minutes+ per hour ads is over the top. Anyway the ads are useless, preaching to those already vaccinated, redirecting lockdown anger to possible relief. All soft positive imagery. Failed to target those ethnic low income hotspots - or emphasize...

If ACT hits 98% fully vaccinated mid December, how is ANY quarantine justified at all. There again ACT does not want international flights, because if it did, it would allow irregular charter flights. I wanted to visit Quatar Whale Sharks in April to Sept, because via WA is much more expensive...

The point of the investigation was that military radar, and downward looking satellite did NOT report what they saw, or even contribute to the elimination process. No one wanted to embarass anyone- when aviation growth looked positive. Did Jindalee OHR see any noise? Did anyone look? I know...

ACT on track to 95%. Ku ring gai and most expensive harbourfront estate also hitting 90% plus. It may be politically incorrect, but if you can run run ads saying buckle up- don't be an idiot, surely we can do it for the jab. I see Sydney's rate dropping, while other states are in stroll out...

Lets be fair, the vaccine peddler should had to be open and honest with side effects, not downplay them to the gutter, and not try to fool international experts. Those countries, like Israel, have a different set of high quality numbers - and are shocked. The numbers are teeny, and we know lots...

On TV, reported National cabinet meetings cancelled., and Mr Barr and others reporting in meeting, not on agenda - deliveries aka lastminuteitis. That QLD will SMS people pathetically urging them to be vaccinated against covid. Hmm, should be done more widely. I re-read the NSW roadmap, and 80%...
