How on earth is Biden doing a good job if he can't in fact do his job?
You basically posted up a sob story when Biden has had a very soft touch from media with little pressure at all.

Last time I checked there was a core group here blaming Trump for everything (even when it wasn't true). Even when Biden has media onside. He still can't answer questions to a friendly media pack.

Cases of covid are blowing out but it's still trumps fault. Afganistan withdrawal was a bloody mess, Na nothing. The border is a bloody mess, Na let's bury that. If this were Trump the media and the screeches on here would be deafening.

They guy basically rolled out Trumps vaccination plan and is now stumped.
Possibly the weakest leadership ever (and Obama was running a close 2nd)

As for masks I was one of the first to post up the studies and data.
If you think they protect you then you better go read again. The most the majority do is limit the distance when you exhale/ stop you touching your face. The virus still travels through.

I'm not a fan of it for schools. You know, because science based.. Not cult based. I may become a fan when the science changes.

 
NSW should get to double the number of cases that Victoria had and still be at 1/4 the deaths. Still a terrible thing but it's better than nothing.

Hopefully vaccination keeps up. Nsw will no doubt just open the gates when we hit the target. Get vaccinated if you haven't already as hospitals are filling.
 
Like we have been saying since the beginning, these lockdowns where designed to reduce the load on the hospital system, when the system is in a position to cope there wont be any lockdowns. Then everyone gets the virus, vaccinated or not, people do have choices.
Interesting that today NSW has 74% with the first vaccine dose, that has certainly happened quickly, obviously shows hesitancy is all but gone.
Even on the National figures, they are saying 63% have had the first dose, W.A and Qld are lagging a bit at 53% but we do have the protection of our State leaders taking the good fight up to the virus.

Na let's just keep up the vaccination and bring this to a head. Even young people in nsw are going in on their own accord.

The cases are pretty concentrated at the moment. I think by November things will be a lot worse stat wise.

If you need a vaccine best of getting it now. It's walk ins for astra. I know it got a bad rap. But I do think it's better than pfizer.

I think there is a lot less unknowns with AZ, the daughters took us out for lunch on Sunday, the younger one said she has decided to have AZ. Absolutely no input from me, as I've said before, it is an issue I'm reluctant to give advice on, definitely a personal choice IMO.
 
It lasts longer and the effects of vector vax are known.
 
Ahah, maybe one day the world will accept Sputnik V? From what I've heard from people around me, the side effects are give or take the same for AZ and Sputnik, and none of my friends who got Sputnik in Russia eventually got sick. Who knows, who knows...
 

Pfizer basically got a mass study of rna technology. Probably some well placed articles and everyone thought pfizer vax was the best.

All the other vaccines were probably safer (including Chinese/Russian vax) considering rna had no long term studies and the known effects on the organs.
 
So vaccine passports will become a thing. Ok what if you have already had covid and already have immunity?

Interesting thing in France: Westfield group and our very own Billionaire Frank Lowy (is he dead yet?) seems to have endorsed police beating unvaccinated Frenchies our of his shopping centres.

Protests eventually chased the cops out.


Slightly more credible news article(always double check Twitter cr@p
 

NSW Health limits residents of locked-down tower block to six beers per day​



It's overstepping the mark in my view.

For the record I very rarely drink alcohol, haven't touched the stuff at all for years, but my own view isn't the point. If people want to drink to the point of getting drunk well that's a separate issue to the pandemic and the law doesn't preclude doing so.
 
Macron and his cabal of Satanists have forsaken the French motto of "Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité"

The French people haven't.
