Good morning Bobby.

Really? What "medical experiments" were those?

I don't seem to recall any "medical experiments" being conducted on myself or anyone else here in WA. What on earth was going on in Victoria?

This was unfortunate.

However, if people had done the right thing from the beginning and obeyed the Covid protection mandates like lockdowns and mask wearing instead of protesting about their 'freedumbs' and almost rioting in the streets then I'm sure the lockdowns wouldn't have gone on anywhere near as long as they did.

WA handled the pandemic very successfully for over 2 years with minimal lockdowns until Mark McGowan was forced into opening our borders to let Covid rip like the rest of Australia had already done.

Of course, if our governments and health departments, etc. had done their jobs properly and not allowed Covid to get into Australia and spread in the first place none of this would have been necessary.

it looks like the next virus will be met with the "swedish" approach.

looks like aquascoot was right all along

yes, it seems that the world ended up adopting the swedish approach.

the elderly are a drain on social security, they tie up housing. they tie up health services  and businesses like travel and tourism are vital for the economy

so it was the logical step

Only for people like you.

I'll let the esteemed Dr. David Berger and Craig Wallace (https://x.com/CraigWtweets) comment further:

Yes, and Peter Collignon is another well known Covid minimiser. Just like Nick Coatsworth and several others.

So... let's see if I've got this right.

Australia's sham of a Covid Inquiry concludes that lockdowns were 'over the top' while conveniently ignoring the fact that tens of thousands of lives (some estimates say 60,000 lives) were saved by lockdowns and other Covid protections that were put in place before the vaccines were available.

It also says Australians were unlikely to accept lockdowns and other protection measures like mandatory masks and quarantine, etc. for a future pandemic and probably would not comply even if the government tried to (or even wanted to) implement them.

So... if that's the case then what is the point of having governments (Federal and State) here in Australia at all?

Here's what a few people have to say about all of this (there's many more replies that say pretty much the same thing but I couldn't fit them all in).

"brain dead country" indeed.

Oh, look.

It's OzPolitic's spokesperson for the "brain dead 99%" again.

So, when H5N1 "bird flu" becomes a full blown human to human transmission pandemic with a 50% CFR (Case Fatality Rate) is the government going to sit on it's hands and do nothing because "that's what the people want" or (more likely) "we're too afraid to try and introduce protections like lockdowns and mask wearing, etc." because "the people will not comply" (and it will upset the economy - but they won't say that part 'out loud', of course)?

Do people need to be dropping like flies in the streets before the government even begins to think about trying to do their job (which is supposed to be "protect the population")?

I wonder what would have happened during The Blitz in the Second World War if the majority of the UK population had said "No, we're not going to wear gas masks or go to bomb shelters or turn our lights out at night or black out our windows because it infringes on our freedoms"?

It's a good thing we didn't have the stupid, selfish populations and weak governments that we have today back then because I'm sure the outcome of WW2 would have been very different.
