No not true.

We haven’t had a death in months. We only had a lot of deaths in the Melbourne flare up where Covid also penetrated or got into 27 odd nursing homes, and respite centres. There the death rate was astronomical.

Anyone who catches Covid in Australia - they say it’s impossible as we have only had 1 community transmission in the last week and that person was once again an employee of our medical hotels which are used to quarantine returning Aussie expats from overseas.

Chance of dieing from Covid in Australia is zero. Zilch!

Chances of getting Covid as it stands today is also close to zilch - unless the virus escapes our quarantine centres which is possible. But even if it does escape the chances of it spreading is zilch because of the rapid response and contact tracing we have hear.

And the actions our government takes, they have locked down state borders within the country before. Even locked down a major city (Melbourne) for something like 3 months.

They even kick down suburbs. With police check points.

When you see those you think you are in Israel. Police check points and even the army was out on the streets and manning check points.

What you can guarantee is that Australia would be extremely draconian when it comes to containing Covid. And extremely efficient and effective.

Sorry Paphitis, but Aussie hospital CARE ranks 2nd worst on that table so there’s not enough irrelevant mumbo-jumbo you can type that will change the statistics! :lol:

Not where I’m standing.

We have the worlds best hospital right here. Cost 17 billion to build. About as much as your GDP. I’ve got a view of it from my second floor balconies overlooking the skyline. :lol:

You are friggin dreaming again Get Real.

I have no clue. If there were kickbacks, then it would be under the table and it wouldn’t be much.

The dam building itself looks like a Dubai monstrosity. And it’s 2 kms in length. Amazing architecture as well plus all the latest ugh tech unseen and unheard of anywhere else - like robots that serve meals etc.

2 helipads and right next to the University of SA and Australian Research Centre which looks like a cheese grater.

Anyway, if you do happen to be unfortunate enough to catch the virus you may want to board the next flight to Paphos! :lol:

And increase your survival rate almost 6 times! :lol:

If anyone was to catch Covid, Australia would be the country to do it in.

Not Cyprus. For a start, our medical infrastructure and care is far superior.

I was a maths whiz at school. I'm pretty handy with number crunching, using no calculators.

And your reasoning is extremely flawed.

I gave you some statistics.

Australia 26 million with 909 deaths. That’s 1 in every 28602 people dead.

Cyprus less than 1 million with 266 deaths. That’s 1 in every 3579 people dead.

Err no, that's a fool's calculation! :)


You can either calculate VIRAL SPREAD which is...


[29.288 infected out of 26 million] vs [49,988 infected out of <1 million]


...or HOSPITAL CARE which is the 4th column on the table.
