I caught measles at kindy when I was about 3. It was a full on dose, & I had spots in my ears & mouth. The acute phase was over in a couple of weeks.
But it nuked my immune system & I spent the better part of the next five years in & out of the children’s hospital, a lot of that time in an oxygen tent.
I think my favourite thing about the #optus shitshow is how all the other telcos laughed at them, and then the government stepped in and tossed the industry into the under the micromanaged bus.
The other telcos must be giving Optus punches and wedges in the locker room for that.
Vendor performing system review, opening meeting to describe the process.

Kinda jealous of people with younger kids than me that get Bluey. We had Octonauts who won’t explain who funds their aquatic missions and are obviously pirates.
St Vincent’s Hospital to be insolvent by April: St Vincent's Hospital Sydney, a public facility owned by the Catholic healthcare giant, is broke and will run out of cash by April, leaked internal memo says. It's asking the state government for a bailout.
@kcarruthers@jpm which you know will also include the leaking of all the internal discussions about them going broke and all the discussions about the government. Real scope for causing a lot of embarrassment to government as well. Plus they can’t afford the ransom payments. Omg there will not be enough popcorn.
