DANIEL ANDREWS INCOMPETENCE CONTINUES - More federal cash to add to Labor's legacy of financial incompetence! ‘Crushing news’ PM says of Victoria’s extended lockdown Prime Minister Scott Morrison (left) and Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews speak to the media during a press conference in Officer, Melbourne, Wednesday, September 4, 2019. The state and federal governments are promising an additional $367.5 million for more lanes on the Monash freeway By CAROLINE SCHELLE NCA NEWSWIRE SEPTEMBER 6, 2020 The extended lockdown in Victoria is “crushing news” for people in the state but it’s vital for the country to curb the coronavirus spread, according to Prime Minister. The decision to extend lockdown arrangements in the state “will be hard and crushing news” for Victorians, Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg and Health Minister Greg Hunt said in a joint statement on Sunday. “It is vital to the national interest to restore Victoria to a COVIDSafe environment, where we can reopen our economy and reasonably restore the liberties of all Australians, whether in Victoria or anywhere else,” it reads. Prime Minister Scott Morrison (left) and Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews speaking to the media last year. But the roadmap comes at a cost. “The continued restrictions will have further impact on the Victorian and national economy, in further job losses and loss of livelihoods, as well as impacting on mental health,” they said. The statement comes after Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced there would be another two weeks of Stage 4 restrictions for metropolitan Melbourne on Sunday.

But there have been minor changes brought in from September 13 to ease some of restrictions including changing the curfew to run from 9pm until 5am, increasing the exercise limit to two hours and allow a visitor “bubble” for singles. It is part of a five-step plan to bring the state to COVID-normal by the end of the year. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/breaking-news/crushing-news-pm-says-of-victorias-extended-lockdown/news-story/4d564ba0925e48a8d77c27115b1c5b3c

WHO IS FUDGING THE COVID FIGURES? IS THE PLAN TO PROMOTE FEAR AND INCREASE GOVERNMENTAL POWER? Have our human rights been abused? Are you feeling deceived, manipulated by corrupt and immoral authorities for political agendas? DO YOU FEEL THAT SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT? Coronavirus: Nursing home death toll down by 1000 EXCLUSIVE STEPHEN LUNN SOCIAL AFFAIRS EDITOR @lunns - SEPTEMBER 4, 2020 The number of deaths of nursing home residents has fallen by ­almost 1000 in the first seven months of 2020 compared with the year before, even taking into account those who have died this year from coronavirus. Overall, 32,398 nursing home residents have died in the year to July, unpublished Department of Health data reveals, compared with 33,383 in the first seven months of last year. In particular the autumn and winter months of May, June and July have experienced significant year-on-year falls. In July last year, 5455 nursing home residents died, compared with 4747 in July this year. While most of the 505 COVID-19 related deaths in Victorian aged-care facilities to date were reported in August, the Andrews government this week added more than 80 deaths that occurred in July or August. Those deaths were reclassified after inconsistencies between the way state and federal authorities report them. Twenty-nine nursing home residents died in earlier outbreaks in NSW, including 17 at Newmarch House. The fall in nursing home deaths across the nation is likely the result of increased influenza immunisation rates in the community and infection control protocols introduced during the pandemic, the department said.

Overall, about 240,000 Australians use residential aged care each year, and 55,000 to 60,000 die, about 40 per cent of all yearly deaths across the nation. The recent spate of COVID-19 related deaths in nursing homes has ramped up pressure on the Morrison government for its handling of the sector during the pandemic. The Senate this week censured Aged Care Minister Richard Colbeck over his performance and the federal opposition focused on aged-care issues almost exclusively in question time during the past fortnight. Last month the aged-care royal commission’s counsel assisting Peter Rozen offered a savage critique of the federal government’s management of the risk of COVID-19 in aged care, saying it did not have a specific plan to manage the crisis even though the disease’s impact on vulnerable nursing home residents could have been foreseen. Scott Morrison has strongly rejected that assessment and defended his minister. With the death toll from Victorian nursing homes continuing to mount, Senator Colbeck and Health Minister Greg Hunt last week announced a $245m funding package for residential aged-care facilities to fund and support infection control capability, including through an on-site clinical lead. Kathy Eagar, director of the Australian Health Services Research Institute at the University of Wollongong, said she was shocked to learn this year that many homes didn’t have anyone responsible for infection control and training was “patchy at best”. read on... https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/politics/coronavirus-nursing-home-death-toll-down-by-1000/news-story/1a951d8ab76edf3ab7804a7b54fd896f
