  1. I cannot work out the total for NSW. Some sources are saying 13, some 16and some saying more but some of the numbers will be tomorrow numbers. Talk about making things confusing
  2. I know more than 10 vaccinated. Maybe 25 people. All Astra Zeneca. Several had extreme dizziness for a few days, some couldn't get out of bed for a few days. They have all had only one dose so far. I also know someone who's brother in Canada died the day after getting vaccinated. He was in his low 50s. That was just over 3 weeks ago. I don't know what vaccine brand he had. I will get vaccinated with Pfizer when it becomes available in my remote location. At the moment I have no idea when that will be, close to the end of the year I think.
  3. Sounds sort of normal to me. Family always stay with family. Family would be deeply offended if someone was in their location and didn't stay. When my inlaws visited from Canada they stayed for a month. They never came at the same time, but seperate. They visited for a month each year for about 10 years. If I went to Melbourne I would always stay with relitives. It is only after we got the twins we stopped staying at relitives places and that was because it was a DHHS thing.
  4. I think her body was transferred to the hospital for the scan then back to the morgue. But I don't really know. I know I spoke to her GP and told him she had passed. The GP contacted the coroner directly and gave medical history. The funeral date was up in the air for a few days as the body could only be released after cause of death found and death certificate made.
  5. When my grandmother89 died at home last year she had an autopsy. But that didn't involve being cut at all. Her body was scanned. The blood clot was visable in the scan. Cause of death was stroke. So not all autopsys involve being cut opened
  6. just regular cornflour - the same as you use for cooking. I have heard that baby powder is extremely bad for babies.
  7. I forgot all about that. Boy that was a long time ago. that boy is 8 now
  8. Yes, I am aware of that. And that is why I said it. Even the Norman history. All hens, rosters etc in Australia are called chooks, until they are dead meat. Then they are called chicken
  9. same A chicken is for a dead cooked chook. same as calling a cow beef after it is dead or deer venison or a pig pork ..........
  10. I get the $39 mystery box of spring bulbs valued at $250 from an online plant nursery once a year. it is always the clear out at the end of the season . I love it. I think once I got the mystery box of rose plants that was fun .
  11. It was today reported that this case was a false positive. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-06-03/covid-cases-melbourne-outbreak-reclassified-as-false-positives/100189226

  13. Sending positive thoughts. Really hope it can happen
  14. Really Hope you get to see your Dd soon
  15. wish we knew. t always seems to hit the northern suburbs of Melbourne . there are a lot of poorer communities and new immigrants living in those areas, with large extended families. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but the last few times ( not this time that I am aware of) there was lots of mingling at family events even though it wasn't allowed under the level of lockdown. This time there seems to be lots of exposure sites at supermarkets and workplaces
  16. I have heard rumers that it will be extended at least until the long weekend and most probably have restrictions for all of winter. that is why we rushed DD wedding
