Ignoring the social mechanisms, the real worry seems to be that the latency of the infection is creeping beyond 14 days into the 3 to 4 week category.
I can't believe the other states are not conducting intensive testing, it's exposing the infection front in Victoria as much broader than authorities relate.
FFS, Qld is out pissing on and partying, are they risking becoming the next LA?
I spoke for the first time with a couple of friends who've had and recovered from C-19 - I spoke with them last week. A mother and daughter returning from the UK and were quarantined. Their flight into Sydney wasn't allowed to go to the usual terminal, instead it was met on the tarmac by an ambulance and the whole bio team and kit and kiboodle. There was a bloke on board their long haul flight with symptoms... fever etc. Apparently he was a young bloke and in a bad way.
Anyway, my pals -- mum 71 and daughter 36 -- came down with C-19 two days later and were very crook but not hospitalised. It lasted just on 4 weeks for both and a day apart, right at the end, both had severe diarrhea for a day. Both are fine now though a little croaky. The mum was a little worried as she has had a few bouts of bronny and has a crook lung but all A OK. They were saying that the docs were saying that it doesn't appear to be an anti lung thing as first thought but rather a blood borne virus that plays havoc with the immune system with diabetics the most at risk along with those with compromised immune systems.
