He didn’t wear a face mask on public transport and so he bit the police officer. He bit the police officer... with his mouth. He bit the police officer with his mouth several times and in several places.

A man has been charged after he allegedly failed to wear a face mask on public transport and bit a police officer on the stomach in NSW. A big shakeup in the department store space. Did you expect this? Maybe Target wasn't paying attention but consumer behaviour had been changing for a while, not just because of the pandemic. Moving towards a digital model seems to be the way to go. Better late than never.![]()

Police were called to the aquatic centre following reports a teenager was in trouble in the water. By now, everyone should know that they have to wear a face mask when they go to the shops. So do you think they intentionally went without a mask to look for trouble or to make a point? Why else would anyone one want to blatantly not comply (especially when presumably everyone else was)? They could have just stayed at home and be mask-less there in peace. Now they get to tell their story to the magistrate.![]()

Misinformation (especially intentional and reckless rather than mistaken) is really sinister - why do people engage in it or celebrate someone else's misfortunate or demise caused by it? When it comes to important health and wellbeing related matters like the coronavirus and vaccines, misinformation has killed people. Yes, people have died because they've followed what they've read online by people who have intentionally mislead them or provided information in bad faith.![]()

Australians would have little room to protest if the government made vaccination mandatory under the federal Biosecurity Act. But is it available? This is the biggest problem with Aldi's Special Buys - if you read the comments and feedback on social media, people aren't happy. The sales frenzy quickly turns to disappointment when shoppers realise that there's limited or no stock available in stores. Is this still good marketing or just baiting?![]()
