The latest on COVID-19

 

Beginning on a positive note, Western Australia is locking down for a single case of coronavirus and one of its residents said, "We welcome the restrictions." It was for five days to protect against the new U.K. variant. Here's the Aussies take...

"It may seem strange to act so aggressively for a single case, but we Australians complied. There were no complaints of infringing on freedoms. No marches against masks. My city of Perth came to a standstill. The roads were quiet, and our beaches were deserted. A trip to the supermarket for essential groceries saw everyone wearing a mask — for the first time"

How refreshing...after experiencing the idiot U.S. population protesting against everything from wearing masks to observing distancing.

Naturally it had to be in Florida, where the population thinks COVID-19 is a fairy tale, and the guy who owns this grocery store thinks coronavirus deaths are just "hogwash." His employees and patrons parade around mask free.

Alfie Oakes, the owner added, "Why don't we shut the world down because of the heart attacks? Why don't we lock down cities because of heart attacks?" Apparently Alfie dufus thinks heart attacks are contagious. This moron deserves no more attention. For some great laughs, read more...
