Isolation works.
To achieve what and at what cost?
at a cost I guess of no-one going there which includes me not wanting to. 
## five cases now..doors shut even tighter |

The ancient Greek Stoic Diogenes famously responded, when Alexander The Great visited the barrel he chose to sleep in and asked him what he could do for him? Responded "yes could you please move aside as you are blocking the sun". Or something similar. Diogenes had perfected living. |

It's a vast state of course but everyone mostly still lives in one crowded city Perth but because they shut the door very early on not only did Covid not flourish but Omicron is non-existent..not a single case.
Isolation works.
Isolation is terrible for mental health. The ones who enjoyed lockdowns are those will no life, friends and hobbies.
I am glad to be working again, supporting local businesses at the same time.
I am still unvaxxed and maskless when out and about.
It really isn't the case that only those without friends or hobbies enjoyed lockdown.
You can make an active choice to enjoy whatever life throws at you, even if it is not what you would choose.
Totally Honey. I am a firm follower of the Stoic philosophers. I have, relatively, a lot. But it is up to me how I respond next week if it is all taken away from me; and I am put in a prison cell. |

Yes - isolation would work against the spread of the common cold but would it be worth it and should it last forever (the only sensible way to deal with it)? I think Isolation is essential if you're dealing, for example, with EBOLA - until a vaccine or treatment is found. But for this stupid trivial virus, inflated by media and swallowed by gullibles who get told extremes and believe them ("one more death! Close all off licences!!"), we need common sense.
