>>1730448>Ped fatalities went up nationwide during covid because of speeding cars, we already knew that.Doesn't that suggest that people are avoiding public transport because of disease?
I know we phased out a lot of our public transport and emphasised low density living to curb disease spread in my city. As of today I'm pretty sure we're one of the only covid free areas on the planet.
Thank you Stephenson and Hepburn for that. I think there was an entire chapter in one of their 50s reports about this explicit thing.
It's a pity the unis that established this back in the day are now crippling the implementation of this for environmental reasons. Clearly they only care about the environment of animals and not the environment of people (i.e. the spreading of viruses).
This is why people in WA are laughing at NSW opening borders everywhere. We know damn well it is doomed to failure. We're only obliging to your bullshit because of the federation. Otherwise we'd ignore your calls (which frankly seems to be more and more corrupted by foreign trash every day).
