Excellent information and well taught. Thankyou. Can't get enough. As a previous nurse and having done biological science, I love having more knowledge and covering more detail biochemically. I really liked that with the SARS COV2 info as it made sense of COVID. It has been fascinating. I have had to look at much of it on my small phone whilst walking, which can be difficult at times and distractions make me make some mistakes with the quizzes and I have to go back to listen to the missed bits. Hence, I am glad I can review stuff. I usually listen to each twice so I can remember it better. Having more knowledge as to why something happens makes you retain the information better as you think through the pathology and biochemistry. You were wondering why the cases in Australia suddenly jumped in a second wave a while ago. Well, a State govt got private security guards instead of the Police and Defence personnel to guard hotels with quarantined returned travellers. They got less and less PPE training as they went along and the company was also asking them to share PPE. ?????!!! A newspaper said they got 15 mins and then those were left to train new security as, I would guess, the company was cost cutting. A nurse involved in the PPE training, I assume, said security personnel were lowering their masks and chatting in the tearoom and wouldn't listen to her. They then went home and to the shops. Some travellers were allowed out unsupervised to attend funerals etc during their quarantine period. These circumstances led to outbreaks all over the place, concentrated mainly in poorer suburbs with some poor English. Multiple language information on SARS was not widely available. Numbers went up to 700 daily infections briefly and masks (rolls eyes) were finally made mandatory, followed by a lockdown. Numbers were a little resistant because poorly paid international carers were moving bw multiple nursing homes. The nursing homes were not as prepared as they should be despite warning signs from earlier outbreaks in another State. Everyone has really been quite unbelievably slow to acknowledge aerosol transmission through air con; still going on about keeping 1.5m apart. Those scientists who warned about aerosol fine particulate and the WHO citing constantly wrong figures must feel quite dismayed. Apart from this f%$# up, this govt has actually done really well heeding health advice and kept the initial wave right down. They have been very successful in bringing the second wave down as well. Daily numbers are now in the low teens with the deaths of nursing home residents unfortunately still coming through. Health professional figures were rising but are coming down. Many in news bulletins appear to be not only wearing n95s but also surgical masks. I don't know why they bother with the surgical masks given the large holes in them. They also wear open goggles and face shields, which must be pretty useless. I don't know why they don't wear chemical goggles with no vents. I wear 6 layers in my masks (3 cloth and 3 within the surgical mask tightly enclosed in the filter pocket and shaped by the cloth more like an n95). I fluked flannelette, which along with heavy chiffon, are believed to hold a charge similar to the disposable masks. I'm not sure if this was in washed cloth as well. I have a higher thread count cotton or flannelette with an outdoor canvas in the middle or outer layer. I have a firm wire which bends and holds in the nose. Living regionally in this State, it is nice to see the low numbers becoming negligible and feel more comfortable about my child returning to school soon. We can now see up to 5 people outside at a distance with masks on from the same household and dine outside in limited numbers. The restaurants and cafes were take out only prior. Even so, I won't be dining out for a while. So, there you have it, the reason for the second wave. Thanks again for the great courses!
