SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA.
DON’T ACT LIKE A HUMAN. DON’T TALK TO YOUR FRIENDS, EVEN WHEN MASKED. DON’T BE FRIENDLY. THIS IS NOT THE TIME.

1. Because they are actually trying to eliminate the virus...
Noob better be careful there!
Noob needs to learn that Biden is doing WAY more gooderer than ol' Trump ever thought about.

2. "don't talk with your neighbors" -- this is my normal life.
I sort of feel guilty about it, feel sorry for people who like talking to people and can't do it now.

7. All non-essential international travel should be stopped
Essential travelers, such as air freight crews, ship's crews, diplomats, etc., should be quarantined upon arrival.
Uh, that's racist, remember?

Covid: Anger as half of Australians in lockdown again
Anger is growing in Australia as 13 million people - about half the population - endure fresh lockdowns to quash Covid outbreaks.
A third state, South Australia, joined Victoria and parts of New South Wales in lockdown on Tuesday.
(snip)
The outbreak in Sydney - Australia's largest city - has infected more than 1,500 people.
Officials reported 110 new cases on Wednesday, despite the city's fourth week of lockdown.
Residents must not leave their homes except for grocery shopping, exercise and other essential reasons.

Oh hell naw!

6. Talking, especially loudly, produces a fog of viral particles
It's due to the turbulent flow of air through the vibrating vocal cords.
It's probably OK if you are outdoors, masked, 6 feet apart, and there is a crossing breeze.
And as long as you've laid down rubber mats to walk on in case you fall while getting to the fence to visit.
And you're wearing latex gloves covered with heavy leather gloves in case you decide to rest your dainty hands on that splinter infested wood.
And you make sure to burn everything you touched along the way.
Oh, and don't forget to throw your used mask into all those conveniently placed
BIOHAZARD drums all the countries are providing to safely dispose of the used masks for a virus that will kill you, and WORSE!
