EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.
Our government needs to hurry up with FREE masks and RATS. In the weekend I spotted a MAN picking up a used mask from the ground. He’s a local he is poor and unkept. I said to him ‘no don’t use that I have some in my car, come with me’, and he did. I gave him my stash of masks in my car and told him he can wash them and reuse them. I then shouted him a coffee and gave him 5 bucks. Too many people don’t have access to masks and the RATS and too many people aren’t wearing masks it pisses me of and its bloody selfish. And why haven’t people bothered to get their kids vaccinated. And we do not need unvaccinated Nurses treating us as what is the point of us being vaccinated and health professionals not, if they don’t trust modern medicine and science why are they in the profession.
Hear hear about unvaccinated nurses. You follow a rational pathway despite our concern about society’s problems. covid ispa and we need that. Yes we must keep trying to find sensible methods to get better .outcomes
Why is over 300 people coming into our country with the virus is there no screening and are they not pre testing before jumping on a plane to come here. I am getting annoyed when I see so many coming in through our borders with the disease intact its wrong and not good enough.

If the cancer is terminal then perhaps the year will enable the parents to set up a legal trust and reliable and caring guardianship for their children. Can they afford to spend so much on gaining borrowed time though? Will there be enough money for the future needs of the family without them?
Many people are asking for life-extending treatment. Do we need to have counselling to help those with terminal conditions to plan their shortened life and then beyond? Advanced care planning is available but is it enough.
