Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Health care systems are stretched to the breaking point in almost every country right now. Being vaccinated virtually guarantees you’re not going to end up needing to be hospitalized due to COVID. If you want the privilege of being allowed to visit a country where the medical resources are limited, you should be able to prove that you’re unlikely to be a further burden on those struggling services. Hence the vaccine passports.

Are they stretched any more than usual for this time of year?

My understanding is that the "stretching" is being caused by staff absences due to adhering to COVID isolation protocols in most countries, rather than being overwhelmed with more patients than they'd normally expect to have.
 
The ruling means very little in the grand scheme of things, just a bit of egg on the Aussie government's face because it's been ruled they ran a red light in processing his deportation.

They'll just cancel his visa again, and with that he's essentially back to square one. The tournament starts in less than a week, he can't have another few days holded up in a hotel not training. He'll realise it's a fight he won't win and just decide to sod off back to his looney country, milk the being a martyr for the selfish and moronic for all it's worth.

He's not just a thick sportsman, he's an absolute scumbag. Federer and Nadal will always stand way above him in terms of legacy stakes, purely for being far better human beings.

Absolute scumbag of a bloke. Federer and Nadal will always stand way above him in terms of legacy stakes, purely for being far better human beings.

I'm confused why he is a bad human being. Is it because people think that he thinks the rules don't apply to him? Or is some other reason?

He has applied to attend a tournament, was obviously told he had permission to fly in the country before and then this has since been refused.

Seems weird that he is being shown as some kind of villain for wanting to play tennis. The rules preventing him entry do not make a lot of sense to anyone, clearly.

He's a bad human being because he tested positive and yet still carried on his life as if nothing, mixing with people whom could have been vulnerable or have vulnerable relatives they themselves could pass it on too. The selfish moron didn't give one.

He's scum.
 
Really hope NoVax wins the whole bloody thing now, it's an absolute shambles. What he's done is no different to the establishment here blatantly breaching covid rules hosting parties with cheese and wine or having a little drive across the country. Dead scary this virus isn't it folks?

Unless the embarrasment of an immigration minister revokes his visa in a fit of pique as he and they have made absolute tools of themselves.

As for the disgruntled Aussie public being peed off and hating on NoVax, they are shooting at the wrong target imo.

If I was in there shoes, I'd be targeting their shambolic government who have locked down harder and longer than every other nation with the ridiculous target of zero covid.

Idiotic and cruel.

Do what you want and go where you want everyone, the establishment or the super rich sports people have been doing that throughout this global farce - why should we be any different?

I think the main problem is that he is trying to say he had covid in December which would get him round to being able to play with their rules. Yet he went to multiple to things days after knowing he was positive. So he is either an absolute bell or a lair.
 
Places in the US being hammered by omicron it’s seems, looks like the milder cases to hospitalization rate could be more to do with vaccine uptake then omicron as that much of a “milder variant”? Or am I being wildly speculative there?

Other variables could be population density. Public Health measures etc.

Looks like a completly different curve than we have seen in Europe in terms of the link to ICU and deaths. These are the NYC figures which is one of the states with the highest vaccine uptake. 27% of the population unvaccinated.

Oh I'm not saying he's not a bell - he's a total bell, and he must have had covid when he said he did, so Christ knows what he was doing at all the events. Same as the rest of the establishment, and our government, with their cavalier attitude to the rules. Make me wonder why any of us bothered...

Also, him being a tool still doesn't excuse the Oz government for their handling of the entire crapshoot or for the overly harsh restrictions and ridiculous lockdowns that they have forced upon their own people to "protect" them.
