The ScoMo Government

The media reaction is out of proportion to the number of infections. No its not all going to fall apart. You cannot and should not expect a zero infection rate forever

Let's just say we will come to a point where lockdowns will no longer be economically viable.
Scomo wants to get the vaccine rolled out quick smart when that's the case.

The media and medical concern about "a few infections" is based on the experience overseas of watching the delta COVID strain dominate India, Russia , UK and many European countries within a couple of months. It is extremely infectious and will not be easily held to a static limited number of infections.

From what the epidemiologists can see the only way to control the spread of this virus (short of total lockdown) is 90% plus vaccination of people. And this will probably require a booster shot anyway.

But I certainly see your point about lockdowns becoming economically crippling. Which makes the drive to vaccinate everyone ASAP even more urgent.

Kudos to Scomo for assisting/encouraging everyone who is willing to get the Astaa Zenica jabs. The blot clot risk is real but very small. The consequences of getting and spreading delta COVID is a far more compelling argument.

Well the media went on and on about the blood clots, now no one wants to be vaccinated, the media is now trying to backfill the hole they dug IMO.
From the article:
Several GPs have welcomed the federal government's push to make the AstraZeneca vaccine more available to all adult Australians, but say a lot of work is needed to turn around entrenched attitudes about the vaccine's safety.

Totally agree. The issues around blood clots are real but they are still exceptionally small numbers. The alternative of no vaccine and trying to avoid delta COVID is a real nightmare.
I sincerely hope there are people with enough commonsense left to get vaccinated with Astra ASAP.

Interestingly enough I heard very recently that a third Astra jab seems to be an effective booster against the more viralent recent COVID strains.

Today marks the day we enter into a true totalitarianism... and the hill I will most likely (literally) die on.

All governments have been telling people what to do for years, so I assume you have a BIG problem with whatever leader we have had.
 
I always love a big announcement that is absolutely BS and pointless, que the big 4 point plan.

Anyone actually buy into this?
 
So what has the current God Botherer told you to do specifically because he believes in a GOD that is a BIG problem for you?
If you think that fruit loops religion isnt influencing the running of this country Iwould assume you are one of them
