Description

Here in Victoria Australia, the beer bug is getting worse. Infections are being picked up at a rate not seen here before. And a significant part of the outbreak comes from quarantine guards that some are suggesting had just 3 minutes of training.    As of 6 July 2020, the total number of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in Victoria is 2,660. The overall total has increased by 124, with three cases reclassified. Of the new cases, 34 are linked to outbreaks, 40 were identified through routine testing and 53 remain under investigation. No case has been detected in a returned traveller in hotel quarantine.    416 cases have been acquired in Australia where the source of infection is unknown. 31 people are in hospital, including three patients in intensive care. 20 people have died, no increase since yesterday’s report. 1,992 people have recovered. Of the total 2,660 cases, there have been 2,307 in metropolitan Melbourne and 260 in regional Victoria. Several cases remain under investigation.   And per the Guardian "No one in Victoria is known to have cited a conspiracy theory for declining to take a Covid-19 test, the state’s health department has said, despite the health minister, Jenny Mikakos, blaming such beliefs for some of the 10,000 refusals as mass testing is carried out across Melbourne’s hotspot suburbs."   Check out some of these news reports on it   https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/jul/05/covid-19-conspiracy-theories-not-among-reasons-given-for-test-refusal-in-victoria   https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-07-04/victoria-coronavirus-hotel-quarantine-leaves-states-vulnerable/12420970   https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/how-hotel-quarantine-let-covid-19-out-of-the-bag-in-victoria-20200703-p558og.html   Note some may find this content confronting.   This episode contains material used for fair use commentary, criticism, and educational purposes.
