Mary-Louise McLaws, who dedicated her career to preventing diseases and led Australia through the Covid-19 pandemic, has died aged 70 after battling cancer.
Her husband, Richard Flook, announced she had died on Saturday night at Wolper Hospital in Sydney's Woollahra, saying 'Our dear Mary-Louise passed away in her sleep'.

You should be ashamed of yourself for posting a comment like that.

blow it out of your arse hypocrite !! She forced this experimental shite onto others so what goes around comes around.

This is a truly disrespectful and offensive
comment for anybody to have made.
 
McLaws had absolutely nothing to do with
whether or not people chose to be vaccinated,
and in actuality was a voice of medical logic
and reassuring calmness in the quagmire of
clamorous media reporting and anti- vaccination
bullshit—like all the ignorant crap you've
posted here over the months.

You've really exposed yourself as the hateful,
shallow-minded, loathsome little man you are.

In fact—ironically—if you'd taken her advice
in the early days of the pandemic, instead of
stubbornly refusing the vaccine, you would've
in all likelihood avoided being infected with COVID. 
Unlike those of us who wisely chose to be vaccinated,
and avoided any potentially serious illnesses
or even death.

   In short you're a dickhead mate.     Roll Eyes





That's not actually true Jeffrey
If nail had taken the vaccine he would still likely have contracted kovid

My suspicion is that is why politicians have gone radio silent on the whole issue

They ran the narrative of this all ends when we get enough jabs in arms
And then guess what
It didn't end and it hasn't ended and they have nothing more to offer

So let's just get on with celebrating the Matildas and ignore a problem about which we can do virtually nothing




Except to take some personal responsibility for our own health lose weight and hit the gym
Something about Karl fines a toxic idea Roll Eyes Tongue Tongue

don't worry they all profited out of it just like oncologists do when they poison people with their magic potions and then tick them off as "died from cancer" Sad

As for being infected you sure as hell sound like you live in a plastic bubble terrified of being bitten by a mosquito. Cheesy LOL

In Australia,   75 people died last week from Covid:

Death toll so far,  22,466.


Yes Bobby.

You know that, I know that, anyone who reads this thread knows that and our governments and media also know that.

But Bobby - it's all about "priorities", you see. You know the old saying about how a picture is worth a thousand words? Well, here's a perfect example.

At the Matildas game yesterday.

On the left, of course, is Anthony Albanese (on one of his rare visits to Australia) who's Prime Ministership has overseen 14,000 Covid deaths since the Federal election in May last year, hasn't lifted a finger to prevent any of them and obviously doesn't give a sh!t.

On the right we have Anika Wells who is the Federal Minister for Sport and also Minister for Aged Care (a rather odd combination I have to say).

Her Aged Care department has overseen 1,069 Covid deaths in Aged Care so far this year, she hasn't lifted a finger to prevent any of them and obviously also doesn't give a sh!t.

There have been 5,836 aged care Covid deaths since the beginning of the pandemic (so far) by the way.

686 reported deaths in 2020
226 reported deaths in 2021
3,855 reported deaths in 2022 (ALP/LIB)
1,069 reported deaths in 2023 ALP (so far)

Priorities, Bobby... priorities.


I'm guessing there won't be any Albo/Anika pictures posted anywhere tonight. In fact, I reckon we'd have a hard job even finding them right now (I assume they were both at the game waiting for another photo op if the Matildas won).

How sad.

Might be time now for Albo to turn his attention (before he jets off overseas again) to doing something about all of the issues confronting Australians right now (including Covid) and for Anika to start turning her attention to doing something about all of the Covid deaths in Aged Care.

Like any of that is ever going to happen.

Well yes... I agree that we should all be living
as hopefully and as positively as we can.  We
need to ensure that all the current doom and
gloom doesn't overtake us to the point of
living in a constant state of fear and despondency.

But, at the same time we need to be realists,
and acknowledge that the SARS-CoV-2 virus
has decimated major portions of the global
population—to the tune of 6,954,340 deaths.

And we need to remember that the only 'good'
news for our media is 'bad' news.

The consensus around my sudden heart failure episode is pointing more and more at the various multiple vaccinations they insisted people my age needed.  The arteries basically collapsed and near killed me.  31% heart function - no wonder I felt sick as a dog.

My cardiologist was shocked - amazed at the sudden collapse when I was in fine running order.  He's keeping a close eye on this.

Back to bed now - still recovering from mega surgery.

Who knows grappler and that is the point
No one is going to point the finger at the vaccine for the current increase in cardiovascular death
Not when both the government and the medical profession advised it

Never ask a question you don't want the answer to

Decimated is too strong a language Jeffrey

When the conquistadors introduced smallpox to South America it is estimated that up to 90% of the Aztecs perished within the first decade
That's decimation

With kovid
If you were a healthy individual under 65
And that would certainly have been the case for the Aztecs
The death rate was less than 1 in 2000
Try and compare 1800 deaths out of 2000 to 1 death in 2000
Then you will realise you need to tone down the language and the catastrophization

I have no idea why you've bought up the
topic of the Aztecs dying from smallpox 500
years ago?  Do think there's some sort of
equivalence with today's Covid epidemic? 

   Seriously?    LOL.

BTW, linguistically, "decimated" no longer
necessarily means 10% —as it was used
historically 400 years ago.

decimate [noun] —kill, destroy, or remove a
large proportion of, destroy or significantly harm,
drastically reduce especially in number.

Just as Covid has.

I invariably find it amusing that people fall
back on games of semantics when they're
so desperate to prove a point.

So, "The Gospel According To Aquascoot"  Roll Eyes states that  it is perfectly fine to allow a virus that is still classed as a Level 3 Biohazard to run rampant through the Australian population causing sickness, death (at a death rate of over 50 times more than the flu) and potentially disabling millions with long Covid in the coming years.

OK then.

Oh, while I'm here... speaking of photo ops earlier on... since Albo (and Anika) obviously couldn't get out of Stadium Australia fast enough after the Matildas lost last night (I wouldn't be surprised if they left before the game finished) here's one just for Albo:

(I didn't caption it, by the way)

I suppose things could be worse.

British Columbia are now doing their own version of that famous 1984 film.

"Who Ya Gonna Call?

'It’s lunacy': B.C. nurses told to call 911 when no ER doctors on shift

Quote:
One of B.C.’s health authorities had a plan to keep a hospital emergency room open despite having no physicians to cover the department by demanding family doctors attend to any of their patients and ordering unsupervised nurses to call 911 for those in medical distress.

CTV News has obtained a memo sent to doctors and administrators at the Bulkley Valley District Hospital in Smithers on Friday titled “No physician BVDH ER Coverage Mitigation Plan.” It includes instruction to call “the responsible family physician of all attached patients that present” to attend them in the hospital when there would be no doctors on shift.

Nurses alone in the emergency department “will be able to provide comfort measures and some first aid…or phone 911 if the person presenting is in immediate medical distress.”


Not one word about what's probably causing all the staff shortages, of course.

Spoiler alert: Here's a clue.

Won't be long before this happens here in Australia (assuming it  isn't already).

We've been through this before. Several times.

I'm not going through it all again.

It's actually between 52 and 53 times more deadly than the flu.

Greg did the math and posted the exact percentage earlier this year (it was something like 52.5 times more) but I'm not looking for the post and I'm also not looking for the numbers to do the math for you again.

When was the last time the flu killed 14,000 Australians between May 2022 and today and 22,466 Australians since the start of the pandemic (and most of those deaths were in the last 2 years)?

How many times do I (and others) have to try and explain this?
