I'm afraid you have your head in the sand. Educate yourself. Don't rely on the ABC as your only source of information. Look at Singapore....they are now moving to a state of covid acceptance. We will never drive numbers to zero ...there will always be outbreaks even when vaccine rates are high. Singapore will soon be not reporting daily numbers, will accept it in the community, will have no more mandatory quarantining, mask wearing or social distancing, and continue to suggest citizens get vaccinated. This is the model the whole world will be moving to. Fear mongering is NOT how we as a society move forward.
Then there's the issue of therapeutics and prophytatrix that seem to work. Many hospitals and Drs have found efficacy in the use of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloraquine in both a prevention sense and in early treatment for covid positive cases. Big tech though have repeatedly blocked discussions of these drugs and their effectiveness, although many positive studies have been done...refer a recent study in the American Journal of Therapeutics. The reason information is blocked? Because the US CDC could not issue emergency use authorisation of the vaccines if there was already an effective treatment on the market. Big pharma are literally making 10's of billions of $$ from their vaccines and accordingly can afford to ensure big tech and CDC don't allow discussion about the use of therapeutics.
Then there's the experience of India. Some states issued invermectin to every citizen and saw immediate positive reductions in the severity of covid infections.
Protect the vulnerable......the aged and those with co morbidities by rolling out the vaccine, make it legal for Drs to prescribe Hydroxychloroquine and Invernectin and cease the incessant reporting of covid and let us all be responsible again for our own health.
Covid has killed only a handful of citizens under the age of 80 in this country and many that contracted covid in care facilities may well of passed away anyway if they had contracted a seasonal flu. Covid has killed less than half of 1% of those who have contracted it.
The Delta strain all the premiers are going to pieces over is far more contagious through far less deadly that the original strain of covid.
So cease with all the lockdown crap and let us live our life the way we choose to and allow the truth to be told about the efficacy of therapeutics.
The playbook of lockdowns is not something we in the West have ever done before. Rather, we are reacting the same way Communist China would react...to the detriment of our lifestyle our businesses, kids education, our overall health, our mental health, our levels of public debt and the economy. It's time to take back our country and tell the truth about covid.
