    I believe they have 5-7 confirmed deaths so far, but their temperatures are not that warm this time of year (in the 60s). Every 2 weeks, look at a world map with the equator in the middle and chart where the majority of critical cases to deaths occurred.

    Australia has also had over a 100k covid tests, far more than the US.

    Australia's weather isn't as warm as you may think in the south. Only the very northern tip of Australia is tropical.

    Melbourne is 64/49 today

    Sydney is 70/61 today

    Probably immune. You have to figure their immunity has developed to as bad or worse, bio-agents already in their streets that covid-19 wanted zero part of.

    Some nice Australian weather you having!

    Australia has extreme heat waves throughout the country, but neither of it's two biggest cities in Syndey/Melbourne have a single month where the average high hit's 80, interestingly. Being on the coast at those longitudes will do that. Only inland and the north get super got.

    We have politicians actively doing things that spread the disease -- going to public gatherings, going to the gym.

    These activities have already been known as things you do not do.

    One went to the gym after knowingly knowing someone was infected !!!

    The fact all those doctors were older seems they entered with the mentality, "if I die, I'm only one life, but maybe I can save two."

    As bad as Kobe's death was, the biggest tragedy was each of the three girls.

    They didn't get the chance to grow.
