Coronavirus (COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2) outbreak discussion

Thats a little bit slippery.
You put the words
"If you won't read lies and drivel it's because you're biased"
in inverted commas , as if i had said those words.
I obviously did not.
If you are quoting someone, you make sure its obvious as to who you are quoting.
As for the utter bull**** part, what part of the data I provided is utter bull****?
Did you actually look at the twitter Video put up by the huffpost, or just dismiss it out of hand?
Mick

Bingo. You're linking the huffington post, your credibility is blown by that one fact alone. I'm never going to take anything you say seriously ever again.

Does it really matter? Some of the stuff posted on here from every outlet is rubbish, that is why they are always in and out of court for defamation.
It is up to the reader to sort the $hit from clay and that usually means reading the same article from several different sources, eventually you work out what makes the most sense, to your reasoning.

Huffington post has a 100% probability of being bull****.

On Wiki it gives this description:
The site offers news, satire, blogs and original content, and covers politics, business, entertainment, environment, technology, popular media, lifestyle, culture, comedy, healthy living, women's interests and local news featuring columnists.
The site offers content posted directly on the site as well as user-generated content via video blogging, audio, and photo.[8] In 2012, the website became the first commercially run United States digital media enterprise to win a Pulitzer Prize.[9]


So it sounds a bit like our newspapers, except it has won a Pulitzer prize, I think Australian newspapers have only won pizztaker prizes from memory. ?

We are doing so well! So proud of the Australian people. Despite quite evil provision of misinformation and propaganda from foreign and (often brainwashed) domestic actors and their attempts to create disharmony and insurrection, the results have been insignificant.
We will become one of the most vaccinated nations on the planet!

The good thing is that a lot of people will be even less easy to be fooled next time.

While you are proud, i am ashamed and disgusted.to each his own...

I am proud. We are more resistant than some, though Canada, New Zealand and Portugal and many other Asian and European nations are too. People think we are a little USA but we are better, much better.

 

[sptrawler]

I'm proud it is all coming to an end and we can hopefully move on to the next load of BS, that is thrown up.
Now everyone has a dose of covid in them, we can move to the next phase of enjoying our lives and seeing if there is an adverse reaction down the track. ?

Sweden can be proud of its handling ,and Denmark and places. Like that vs covid, and China for a completely different reason..but that is scary for us.
Covid saga has slashed our liberties, divided us not only jabbed and thinkers but state against state and killed and disabled countless of innocent young liveshttps://www.couriermail.com.au/coro...p/news-story/db13a493119e3ede4eff83c19905feb3
Ohhh so proud. When a simple test can check if you are or not infected and is used all over the world now to travel between countries..ohh so proud.

When we read your posts, then it is difficult to disagree.
Lockdowns are proven to work, as shown most recently by the NSW experience.
Meanwhile, apart from mask mandates and minor social restrictions the majority of States and Territories have experienced business as usual.
On the other hand, the flagrant violations of public health orders from antivaxxers and so called libertarians (most who are clueless to what it means), catapulted covid numbers to almost unmanageable level in several States on a number of occasions, Victoria being proof of the problem.

Sweden can be proud of its handling ,and Denmark and places. Like that vs covid, and China for a completely different reason..

China has used repeated hard lockdowns and the world's best app to manage covid. But putting China with a death rate of 3 per million with countries that have hundreds (Denmark) or thousands (Swedens) of deaths per million makes no sense. Ask West Australians if they are proud of their covid response (I am West Australian), or even most Queenslanders and, apart from some rather senseless business closure decisions , the response was echoed at recent State elections.

Only morons who don't understand our present system of laws consistently regurgitate the crap you have about our civil liberties. It's those who disregard powers to implement public health measures (which existed well before covid) who have put our society at risk, time and again.

When a simple test can check if you are or not infected and is used all over the world now to travel between countries..ohh so proud.

On that I can agree. However that is a federal matter and nothing to do with lockdowns.

And post viral fatigue syndrome is occurring a lot more than what occurs with the flu according to a USA study. This has economic implications obviously.

New Study Finds More Than A Third Of COVID-19 Patients Have Symptoms Months Later

The symptoms, such as headache, fatigue and cognitive dysfunction, persist or recur months after diagnosis, far more often than they do for the flu, researchers say.

I have never worked out why people are so concerned about the health choices of other people.
If you don't want to be vaccinated, it's your choice. But you have no right to deliberately lie about what others actually choose to do, especially when it's being done for a public good.
Then, as your post shows, there's the next level up - where people threaten and abuse others who act in their or the public interest. It takes a special kind of stupid to do that.

This I'm not sure about.

I'm seeing this wide ranging narrative of Australia falling prey to a fascist government using the COVID hoax and unnecessary vaccines as a wedge to control peoples lives. I saw a neat little sticker recently inviting people to join the white rose collective (or whatever ) to protect our country against this fascist menace. (If you remember White Rose group was an anti Hitler group in Germany led by a young girl.)

Very potent. IMV very dangerous.
