Cade Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 South Australia's lockdown to be ended three days early after it emerged that a person lied about the circumstances they came into contact with Covid-19 at a pizza shop. One member of staff had become infected and originally the other guy said he was a customer. The authorities then put the 9-day lockdown in place thinking that the pizza place was a super spreader and are still trying to contact people who had visited it. It now seems that the other guy was, in fact, another staff member and had lied to the tracers for some reason because it was his 2nd job. So instead of being infected from a single casual visit, he'd caught it from being in close contact with the other guy for days on end. Entire state in lockdown because one wee ***** lied. The governor of the state is raging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks said no Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Any news of the vaccine being available privately so as to jump the queue? Reason for asking is that we need a COVID free certificate to travel and it will cost £120-150 each, if I could get the vaccination for that price it would be worth it.

Na , I read or heard somewhere that you were definitely not going to be able to pay for it privately. They don't want to project the wealthy can jump the que, apparently you could go abroad and get it but you will not in the UK.

It's a disgrace they don't qualify for furlough, when government measures have all but wiped out their customer base. Like I've said before, this mess won't be ignored by small business owners, taxi drivers & hospitality workers, come election time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
