Update: Our much anticipated announcement from our state leader on HIS road map out of lockdown.
- The travel radius which was at 5 kilometer's has been expanded to 25 kilometer's and people are able to leave their homes for as long as they like, under a relaxed set of coronavirus restrictions that kicked in from midnight.
- Scrapping the two-hour time limit for exercise and socializing.
- Allowing groups of up to 10 people, from two households, to gather in public outdoor areas.
- Reopening outdoor sports settings like tennis courts, golf courses (only 2 people at one time) and skateparks.
- Allowing outdoor swimming pools to host up to 30 swimmers.
- Allowing outdoor real estate auctions to go ahead, with up to 10 people, plus staff.
- Permitting non-essential outdoor home maintenance, with up to five workers.
- Resuming face-to-face consultations at many allied health services.
- Allowing hairdressers to open.
NOTHING else is reopening until the 2nd of November - Of which, will only be reopened depending on the number of daily cases being below no more then 5 - No retail stores, beauty, restaurant's, you name it, only hairdressers are allowed to open as from midnight last night. We are all going to live in fear of being put on lockdown again until March next year when the one time 6 month extension health bill expires & our state leader won't have the power to put us in lockdown again. It will now take us to 16 Straight weeks or 4 Months of being in lockdown so far.
I'm not surprised at all that nothing is reopening, the only surprise is he is allowing hairdressers to reopen that's about it.
I still don't know what affect this will have with my and others health issue's and all the referral's I have that I simply still am yet to get appointments from. I'm still waiting for when I'm getting my much needed back surgery done. I've heard absolutely nothing???? I could be waiting until next year.
