Reference :- Sober news anchor Andrew Bolt outlined his approach to social isolation .

Reference :-    Andrew Bolt reckons the coronavirus lockdown should end immediately and was a mistake in the first place .


 I guess you are getting sick of sitting at home with your whisky bottle Andy  . And it shows .  You are flapping your hands about in exasperation more than usual . Be careful you don't take off.

  That is an interesting strategy you are promoting .  You say it's best to let the brave do what they like , while the cowards obey the rules like the sheep they are .   But my son , Ken junior , reckons pandemics don't work like that . He reckons that in no time at all those you call the brave will spread the virus to those you call the cowards . 

Ken junior  has told me that when his pigeons come down with a disease he must isolate his best birds completely or they end up carking it .  But we aren't birds are we Andy ?  ( Though we sometimes flap a bit.  )   Obviously that protocol doesn't  apply to us .  And most importantly , pigeons don't have investments and share portfolios going down the gurgler , raising the risk of suicide and alcoholism .


Have you been watching the spread of the virus in Georgia as I suggested  in a previous post ?   The governor's office just released a graph that shows a steep decline in cases since lockdown was eased . Brian ( the governor ) is probably eager to reopen his businesses before they fold , and no doubt wants to refocus on quelling accusations of voter suppression in the last election .   It's a pretty impressive graph , showing a huge decline in cases since he ended the lockdown .

But Ken junior reckons it's the weirdest graph he has seen , with no units on the Y axis , and an X axis not in chronological order .   Even the bars representing each county have had their order jumbled to give a false impression of a strong decline in cases . Your "Outsiders Weather Report"  offsider  Rowan Dean should check it out , he has a particular interest in the manipulation  of graphs and data.

Also , did you notice that yesterday saw the largest increase in new infections worldwide since the pandemic began ?   And  Brazil is having a rough time of it since Mr Bolsonaro told everybody to get back to work and stop worrying  .  You had better run a segment explaining why those statistics  are nothing for us to worry about because it can't happen here .   

By the way , there is no need to thank me for  helping you out from time to time .  It's a pleasure and fills the time during lockdown .

Have a whisky for me .       Your comrade , Ken
