Virgin boss says Australia’s borders should reopen sooner than mid-2022 even though ‘some people may die’ Michael McGowan
Virgin Airlines is standing by its chief executive’s comment that Australia’s borders should reopen sooner than the middle of next year even though “some people may die”.
The airline CEO, Jayne Hrdlicka, told a Queensland University of Technology business lunch on Monday that Australia risked being left behind if it did not reopen borders once a sufficient portion of the population had been vaccinated.
“Covid will be part of the community, we will become sick with Covid and it won’t put us in hospital, and it won’t put people into dire straits because we’ll have a vaccine,” Hrdlicka said in widely reported comments that were not disputed by the airline.
Sinalco
Special have
very strong opinions about it. According to my dad who lived during this drink’s prime era, Sinalco tastes like “cough-syrup” so it’s clear that he isn’t the biggest fan.
Supposedly made from four mystery fruits, this orange-coloured beverage is sickeningly sweet which probably explains why we loved it so much as kids and why our parents weren’t the biggest fans.
Originally bottled at the now-defunct National Aerated Water Company along Serangoon Road, this drink was last produced by Pokka in a limited-edition release in 2016.

TV for insomniacs: Netflix s Headspace Guide To Sleep
Nodding off in front of the telly is a time-honoured ritual which has over time evolved from waking up to the crackle of end of hours broadcast, to Netflix beadily asking, “Are you still watching?” (an irritating feature that is mercifully in the trial stages of being switched off).
Given the soporific nature of TV it was perhaps inevitable that streaming platforms would branch out into programmes intentionally designed to help the viewer sleep – and, more importantly, to get their slice of the growing meditation pie. Netflix has three series this year in collaboration with the popular Headspace app – the second, Headspace Guide to Sleep, landed this week.
