1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's. 2 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 2: Let's get on down to the Jonesy no matter of 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 2: arms right now for the pub test. Random COVID testing. 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 2: Does it pass the pub test? 5 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: Well? 6 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 3: I saw a tweet from John Howson who says it 7 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 3: too much of a stretch to ask why not random 8 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 3: COVID testing? It seems we're being urged for more and 9 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 3: more of us to be tested. Not enough of us 10 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 3: are being tested, but constantly being told. I can only 11 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,959 Speaker 3: assume that means that people with symptoms aren't being tested. 12 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 3: That must be the health advice Gottisperiduclian's getting there's no 13 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 3: point in healthy people being tested. But we need twenty 14 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 3: five thousand plus tests a day to be conducted to 15 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 3: know where we are. Yesterday we only had fifteen thousand. 16 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 3: So if people have symptoms and aren't being tested or asymptomatic, 17 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 3: is random COVID testing the way to go? 18 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: Is it? John Balalara was going off his cracker on 19 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: the holiday saying we've all got to get tested. But 20 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: the reality is, if you've got if you're feeling fine, 21 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 2: if you go and get tested, you're out of action 22 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: for however long it takes to find out that you're 23 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 2: not don't actually have COVID. 24 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 3: I reckon it's probably a number of reason as to 25 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,279 Speaker 3: why people aren't being tested. They can't be bothered to queue. 26 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 3: You have to isolate, as you're saying, to you get 27 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 3: your results, thinking about how many people you'd inconvenience if 28 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 3: you did have it. Some people think, oh, it's better 29 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 3: not to know. I'm sure some people think like that. 30 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 3: So is the solution random COVID testing? What do you think? 31 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely not. I think they're going way too far with 32 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 4: all of this now, and I think if someone doesn't 33 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 4: want something shoved up their nose, they shouldn't have there. 34 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: I suppose it's not a bad idea because that all 35 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: the people that don't do the right thing. But I 36 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: probably just wouldn't be the one they randomly tested and 37 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: then I had to sit at home wait for result. 38 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: So I'm on the fence. 39 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 4: I believe it all. 40 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: I think that's a really great solution, and I'm really 41 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: glad they joint it and just have it, because it's 42 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: been something that I've been thinking about. 43 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 5: What's it really matter when they keep letting people into 44 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 5: the country. Our best defense against is seeing is we 45 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 5: live in an island. They keep letting people and we're 46 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 5: still going to have early problem. 47 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 3: Not all our cases are coming from overseas. Be realistic 48 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: about this. We are going to have community transmission from 49 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: within our own country. 50 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's domination
