Emdog Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Though I love and respect Tom and Rita, no I "wouldn't like to be your neighbor" at least for a few weeks If you haven't seen this movie, check it out. Said to be where Tom met Rita, set in Thailand (though shot in Mexico). It's a hoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket3rider Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Hanks touched down on the Gold Coast on January 26 and was rumoured to be staying at Peppers Broadbeach — in the same building as a Chinese national who was one of Australia’s first coronavirus cases. The 44-year-old was confirmed to have the virus on January 29 after being rushed to hospital by paramedics on Tuesday, January 28. The man had recently returned from Wuhan and was travelling with his wife and child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medicare would cover them, and I doubt that they would have to wait because it would be deemed an emergency, so preference is given to those for emergency situations, I mean you can't send a COVID-19 person home when they have tested positive, they would get the same care as Tom and his wife, albeit they are celebs.

Of course there is a Big difference between 5* private and public hospitals, that said, I can't knock the government hospitals I have been to over the years in Sydney/Sydney's north/south. I think all the hype will blow over in a month or two as people stay in doors and let it go its course, for those that have to work, and of course travel on public transport, I feel for them as they will be more susceptible to it, but it isn't a death warrant, although that is all the media is hyping on about, creating fear, it's bad, yes, I suppose we could say it's another pneumonia of sorts and really affects the elderly more than others from what I have been listening too and once it has spread far and wide, perhaps then our immune systems might be able to cope with it, and no doubt they will release a vaccine for it within a year 18 months.
