Per a Herald article, Nick Coatsworth has “gone rogue” (my term, not theirs) and speaks out against the current/ongoing zero Covid aspirations within Australian corridors of government.

She is not Robinson Crusoe here, every State Premier has offered their "advice" when they are on a good streak, and ignored advice from others when they are on a bad one.

Within a day of getting my 2nd AZ shot I downloaded my "Covid-19" certificate into my phone wallet. Well at least they have got that part working efficiently!!!
It will be interesting to see what will happen in this space in regards to boosters. Cant see this ever ending...

I really don't care to debate of the pro's and con's of the vaccination (I'm fully vaccinated) but I'm a member of a few online groups and one is obviously totally anti vaccination.
The group is bombarded with clips and documents on a daily basis from anti vaxxers. Some stupidly laughable, others can be interpreted as semi-legitimate. Most recent one is a clip of a Jewish Dr who claimed to personally treat Trump, Giuliani and other elite yet he also claims that a very large % of vaccinated will be dead within 2 or 3 years. 20 or 30%... Mentioning that Israel and Seychelles, being 80+ % vaccinated will be the victims of a huge population decline due to the mass vaccination policy. There is so much fuel to the fire from all sides and now it's impossible to tell what's true to what's BS. I don't regret getting the jab but everything floating around is certainly thought provoking and I don't blame people to be cautious of the current situation. We will probably never ever know the truth. In a few years we will know more regarding the effects of the vaccination but where do you draw the line between freedom of speech and mass hysteria?

A conspiracy theorist will say the actual vaccination wasn't ever administered, or the syringe was full of saline. Case in point - seen the vaccination clip of Anastasia Palecek being passed around? She apparently got her jab with the cover not removed from the syringe. ![]()

What does the doctor's ethnicity particularly matter? It infers an underlying narrative, and an old one at that.

Just as the photographer who took the photo said she missed the shot, and could they do another pretend one to get a good photo.. This is the sort of thing that makes the conspiracy theorist look silly, seriously, if I was going to fake getting the vaccine I would do something better than letting the press take a photo of it with the needle cap on!!!!

The ethnicity may imply that even a Jewish doctor (Ashkenazi Jews being amongst the world’s most intelligent people as are doctors in general) could get sucked into conspiracy thinking.

Lockdown lifted for regional Vic from midnight tonight,. No restrictions on distance you travel from home, but you have to have a valid reason to visit Metro Melb and follow their rules when there.

Data valid as at 00:00 GMT August 8th 2021.
Note: As not all Australian States report at the same time, the data below is based on the previous full day reporting. 284 new cases for Australia and 1 death so the CMR is 2.587%. 6 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 0.901%. The UK had a lower 27,110 cases yesterday and lower 39 deaths for a CMR of 2.147%. A lower 68,950 new cases in the USA yesterday and lower 320 deaths sees CMR at 1.733%. Florida recorded just over 1/3rd of all cases with 23,903. Other notable points: (weekend reporting) Global deaths pass 4.3M, the last 50k in 5 days; Global cases pass 203M, the last 1M in 2 days; Asia passes 64M cases; Finland (1,322); Vietnam (9,690); and Iran (39,619) ... recorded new highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day. No countries move above the 90th percentile for the 10 day period and none drop below.

I still believe this virus is more intensively concentrated on any area here or overseas, where there is a rise in ground level pollution, but the world leaders seem to want to ignore that, why, because they haven't got a clue, they really are clueless, thoughtless and couldn't care less!
Any "aware" person, or person who can see how important a healthy environment is to our well-being is ridiculed, take the young girl Greta Thurnberg, did she just accidentally arrive with this theory of hers or was there something in her advice, seems it occured just before Covid-19 hit the world, and how could a child offer such sage advice to the world run by beurocrats greed and money? Surely there has to be a common denominator, a common thread between virus, its target and victims, nothing is that coincidental, nothing at all. Cheers Billy. |

I've been to those places numerous times and there is zero pollution there. Compared to the rest of the world OZ does not have a pollution problem. Have you tried emailing the world leaders to tell them that you have the answer?

If you are claiming Covid-19, 'may not be as bad as they appear, there is a lot of concern and ppl need to keep it in perspective.' Those sorts of claims have been made since the start of the pandemic. Surely by now with 203million odd cases of Covid-19 and 4.29million deaths from Covid-19 world wide the, 'it's no worse than the flu' brigade must be starting to see some cracks in their logic?
