As Victoria, Australia heads for Stage 4 lockdown a few random thoughts borrowed from fbuk.
I would love to see a film of someone sneezing into their elbow to see how far and for how long infectious material bounces from the arm & then continues to drip off as the person walks amongst others infecting them.
The other "clever" one is to sneeze into a tissue and throw the tissue away.
This is yet again evidence of the stupidity of the so called advisors who have been advocating no masks and sneeze into your elbow!
It really is a case of "everyone is infected until proven othewise but that proof was only good for 3 days ago ie. You may have been infected during the three days since you were tested, it may even have been at the testing station!"

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.@Triphid I now also see that SBS Insight claims to have raised the issue of pandemic control measures with a panel of so called medical experts & professors 6 years ago.
They obviously, despite the inclusion of the NSW chief medical officer, didn't get very far.
My elderly nsw acquaintance is of the opinion that they should all be put in jail. Lol I learnt more of his recent hospitalisation in Gosford private hospital, the management had to be threatened with a writ of habeas corpus by his insurance company to get him out of their ineffective expensive clutches.
Should doctors only be paid if the patient is well?

" Habeas Corpus" FYI FB, is a term used in Criminal Courts where Murder is being prosecuted and the Defence demands that such a Deed cannot be proven UNLESS the body of the victim has/can be found and produced for Foresnic and Pathological Examinations and such results can be provided and shown in Court as Evidence.
Ergo, the ONLY way your ' elderly new acquaintance' would be granted a Writ of Habeas Corpus IF,
a) He were already deceased, which would an UTTER impossibility since the Dead can NOT sue for a Writ of ANY kind, and,
b) His death was considered as being a case of Murder, hence the Counsel for the Defendant would have had to sue for a Writ of Habeas Corpus on behalf of his Accused Client.
@Triphid it is a shame that you are more ignorant of it than I am:
Habeas corpus
Habeas corpus is a recourse in law through which a person can report an unlawful detention or imprisonment to a court and request that the court order the custodian of the person, usually a prison official, to bring the prisoner to court, to determine whether the detention is lawful. The writ of habeas corpus is known as the "great and efficacious writ in all manner of illegal confinement". It is a summons with the force of a court order; it is addressed to the custodian and demands that a prisoner be brought before the court, and that the custodian present proof of authority, allowing the court to determine whether the custodian has lawful authority to detain the prisoner. If the custodian is acting beyond their authority, then the prisoner must be released. Any prisoner, or another person acting on their behalf, may petition the court, or a judge, for a writ of habeas corpus.Wikipedia
A person held in hospital against their will is rescued with a court writ of habeas corpus.
