Also try the magic knot! It's the only knot that doesn't drive me mad, makes a tiny knot that is easy to crochet through & no loose ends to weave in, and its the strongest I've ever used. Just make sure you get the loops on the knot right & don't overtighten the knot till the end

Additionally, internal communications within PwC indicated an awareness amongst the internal PwC recipients, including PwC taxation partners, that the confidential knowledge gained from the consultations with Treasury WOULD BE LEVERAGED to market PwC to a new client base,”

But you can't check! "Relations between the ATO and big four firms were fraught as Commissioner Jordan complained that companies were making blanket claims of legal privilege that prevented the tax office from accessing emails and documents that offered tax advice"

Odd how politicians say "silly mistake, was young, naive & unable to understand" But for the public? Haha no. You don't need privacy or rights, unless you've got something to hide! That would be a permanent mark affecting the rest of your life Criminal age of responsibility? 10

I want to do this for Japanese encephalitis vaccine. Eligibility restrictions are ridiculous & vary by state. Travellers O/S can get one no problem, yet people living in Aus on Murray where it's now here forever, can't. Even though that's a lifetime of risk, not just a holiday

Our mental health system is far from adequate but cutting support again - against the recommendations of the review - is the exact opposite of what we should be doing.

Here's a couple days to compare. On the right is a bad day, when I flick through the graphs the variability & shared area sticks out immediately. But you need to find your "baseline" or average over time. I used to check BP regularly but now I can just go off HR

Somehow a report from DOH & Health Minister refuting the claim of $8B in fraud is "bowing to pressure" & "raising the stakes" by investigating the "troubled healthcare system" Still conveniently ignoring that the $8B figure wasn't even in Faux's thesis. It's pure fiction.

The SMH article on the Health Minister & DOH report was borderline disinformation as well. The report that "found no evidence of the $8 billion in Medicare fraud and inappropriate billing estimated by Dr Faux” Framed very differently by SMH, while repeating the absurd $8B figure

THIS wave is definitely the last one before it's just seasonal. Last covid wave before winter, get it fast!! I swear it's true this time, ignore how many times we've said it's the last wave! No way there will ever be another variant ever, hybrid immunity will save us!!

Honeywell SP1000 are great slimline sealed safety glasses. You can swap the arms for a strap, they're pretty comfy & seal well IMO. I have a smaller face (always wanted glasses in between adult & teen sizes) Great option if you can't wear bigger goggles with certain masks

It's clear the main reason for the delays & dismissive attitude is because we're not a marginal seat. And Labor does not care about health, just political posturing & retaining power. First time I've ever agreed with Sussan Ley, this is beyond absurdity

4. Victoria even refuses to release the "master plan" for the hospital upgrade - which was supposed to be finished well before now It took a FOI to just get a reason why it has not been released despite Vic promising it would be done a year ago

3. Victoria now won't even respond sincerely now, it's all politics. When asked if they'll match the funding promised by LNP, they refuse to even give a straight answer & just sledge the LNP while bragging how much better Labor is on Health

If there was even a hope of hybrid immunity kicking in & saving us all, you'd think we might have stopped at halfway up? Given the much fresher "hybrid immunity" The line doesn't even fucking slow down. Over 10 million cases, almost all immunity within past year, & for what?

If hybrid immunity worked, how the hell did we overtake both USA & UK in total cases per capita, just in 2022. If hybrid immunity was ever going to work, it would have been here. Recent vax & more cases in the past 12 months than USA or UK had for 2020, 2021 & 2022 (per capita)

I haven't had issues with requesting specific vaccines (even Novavax) even though it wasn't my usual GP clinic. If you're worried, have a copy of the current govt eligibility requirements - it's worded stupidly, but anyone over 18 is eligible for Novavax

Novavax is a good option if Omicron/bivalent mRNA not available. Better antibody response to Omicron & variants than original mRNA vaccines. Different vaccine tech might help with diminishing returns (but just a guess) Doesn't help with the access issue & booster rules tho

Cats are the best. Mine has saved my mental health on so many bad days. I just found the most adorable video game called stray, it's amazing if you love cats. I had to settle for watching a play through but it's my next game when I have the energy. Blown away by it.
