    "The passengers will quarantine for three weeks, which is short of the 42-day potential incubation period for hantavirus,"

    3 x 7 days = 21 days

    42 days ÷ 21 days = 2

    They're doing quarrantine for half the incubation period.

  18. 9News | 'A soft target for crooks': Shocking extent of NDIS fraud revealed by 9News

    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    The parliamentary inquiry into the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) uncovered that roughly 8 percent of the scheme’s $45 billion budget—over $3.5 billion—has been compromised by fraud, with criminal gangs, coercive schemes and international cartels targeting vulnerable people with disabilities. Investigators found that 90 percent of the smallest 1,000 of the 1,400 plan managers show traces of fraudulent activity, including inflated billing, “harvesting” of participants’ packages, and exploitation of those recently released from prison. NDIS Minister Jenny McAllister called the scheme a “soft target for crooks,” while officials from the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission and the Fraud Fusion Taskforce warned that the fraud spans Australia, South America, and parts of Asia. In response, the government plans to slash NDIS spending in the upcoming budget, aiming to reduce the average annual plan by about $5,000 and save $35 billion, alongside tighter safeguards and oversight.
