At my school, were in a bubble of 84, we have 3 rooms to prevent contamination, regular rigorous cleaning, compulsory masks, scheduled handwashing, reduced curriculum for subjects such as PE, no parents evenings etc etc, to me, that sounds a lot safer than somewhere like a pub where these groups of 6 can meet, where there are no masks, little social distancing, people are drunk and there are different sets of people all the time. In my school we've had something like 3 or 4 cases since September. It's not as bad as people are making it out to be and we deserve a fair chance at exams and an education, I agree primary schools shouldn't be open but when you're in an exam year it's a very different story

I know some of it is just luck, but it’s also the quick border restrictions when another state shows cases plus very strict borders, regardless of how the federal government keeps fucking it up(we have had several disease ships come into port after McGowan asked for a closed border, but our border controls thankfully have caught them all).

He explained how he cant access the internet and his calls are being declined or is told to book through the website. Companies need to get their shit together with all this booking bullshit.
