Covid restrictions relax = 2nd wave of covid begins

[demonetized]

Like I see people I know on social media partying after the the majority of restrictions got lifted and now they're shocked as to how many people have covid like.... the duality of man (?)

How can covid be real if our lungs arent real?

to be fair, the first wave hasn't really even finished in quite a few places, but second wave might be happening, I don't really know.

Health experts are predicting that infections will rise in the winter when people have to stay indoors with the windows closed. Less air circulation leading to greater chance of infection. Also going to be running along side the usual flu season soooo yup. Maybe on the flip side, less people go out so less person to person interaction outside of the family.

Nothing has really been lifted around me. Just people being stupid on their own.

The trick the media uses here is talking about the total number of cases for X area. If literally one person gets COVID on any given day it's a new "record high" and they spam it everywhere.

Everyone seems to have forgotten that "slow the spread" isn't the same as "stop the spread".

At the end of the second wave here, fingers crossed there isn't a third cause of idiots.

I take it you live in Melbourne as well my dude! It's been a struggle on this 9-week lockdown. Frothing for a beer at the pub!

That's some wild prediction, to be fair-- but, it could happen knowing how some individual's immune system is weaker compare to summer times, hoping that things do get better and we won't have to face 2nd/3rd wave :[
