A piece I just finished today - handmade articulated Sterling silver isopod with 18ct gold eyes & moveable antennae. 52mm long, not including the antennae. Wearable as a pendant

What struck me about the recent street footage of Japan was that every single person was wearing a mask.
No mask mandates - just a place where community awareness and shared responsibility are core.
Not like our selfish “all about me” culture. We have a lot to learn

Just picked up my car from the bodyworks.
Woman in the office there told me I don't have to wear a mask anymore & then said "I don't even care if I get it now - it's just a cold"
Maybe I should have responded with "people like you are the reason I'm still wearing one"

Coming to the realisation that I will be masking “forever”.
Covid isn’t going anywhere…vaccines are becoming less effective…evidence of long term issues is increasing…repeat infections worsen the odds.
What choice do we have if we don’t want to become one of the infected?

There’s a highly contagious new variant spreading through the community. We know that current vaccines don’t offer much protection, especially if you’re months out from your last dose. Nor does prior infection.
Why wouldn’t you wear a mask?

I’d say more than 1/2 of the people I know have had Covid. Hard to imagine our life in Tasmania pre Dec 21 now

So now the advice is be kind to people who choose to wear a mask instead of wear a mask to reduce transmission. We've reached a new low

Sick of the rise of libertarian BS in Australia. This “everyone out for themselves and bugger the rest of you” ideology is doing my head in. Now being espoused daily by our so-called leaders.

The same logic being used here in Tasmania. Because it’s more transmissible they’ve implemented what they call a “lighter touch” - also known as SFA - for tracking and tracing. It’s all about expediency, not health outcomes.

At my GP today 4 some test results. Hadn’t seen him for nearly a year. I was curious as to why he hadn’t asked if I was vaxxed - said he doesn’t bother any more - sick & tired of listening to people’s excuses…if they haven’t had it by now, nothing he can say will convince them!

Apart from illustrating how easily Covid is spread - even outdoors - this event also shows two other things:
- how densely populated the area is - 2836 people encountered on a 35 minute run 😳
- how intense the surveillance is - all those 2836 people identified 😳

Surely our much touted 90% vaccination rate is redundant now that people who had AZ have very little protection against Omicron…and with many of them not eligible for a booster yet

Because the masking message now - if there is one at all - is to only wear one if you yourself are sick or have symptoms. And everyone has conveniently forgotten about asymptomatic transmission.

Making plans to catch up with an old friend I haven’t seen for ages. I said I’d prefer to sit outside - or if that’s not possible at his house, I’d wear a mask. He laughed and downplayed my concerns…said Covid was no big deal, no need to worry about all that stuff

Actually you’re wrong. Again!
The phrase was first by coined by Rosalind Wiseman in her non-fiction book for parents "Queen Bees and Wannabees", which was published in 2002. The movie “Mean Girls” was based in part on that book, and was released in 2004.

It’s because community transmission will increase now. More virus circulating, more chance of people catching it and spreading it unawares to family and friends. Nothing to do with family members needing mandates to make them isolate
