Have a listen


I agree with his overall point and would like to understand who and in what circumstances are exceptions being applied? Its also the best I have seen him speak.

He is being a bit sneaky with the data though. 72% of the 20k non Australian travellers were from NZ. His individual 'weekly' visitor numbers as reported above seem overstated. He also refers to 'last month' when the most data recent data released was June 16 and the reference month is April.

It's all here https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/i...res-australia/latest-release#resident-returns

I would like to understand of the feds have really asked the ABS stop recording the data/

I work in health and can't get one till September
NSW health opened up Pfizer vaccines to family and close friends 6 weeks ago after they had given all their staff the opportunity. I got mine.

I am in my 30s, just went on to the Fed Vaccine Eligibility checker, put in that I work in front line health, and I would be eligible to get one in 2 days.


Have a go and post what it says?

Edit: Just considered not everyone is front line health, definition below

Frontline health care worker sub-groups for prioritisation include
  • frontline staff in facilities or services such as hospital emergency departments, COVID-19 and respiratory wards, intensive care units and high-dependency units
  • laboratory staff handling potentially infectious material
  • ambulance and paramedic service
  • Commonwealth Vaccination Clinics (formerly GP respiratory Clinics), and
  • COVID-19 testing facilities.
All other healthcare, aged care and disability care workers are included in Phase 1b, including medical and tertiary students with placements in these healthcare settings.

You will need to provide proof of occupation to demonstrate your eligibility before you receive the vaccination. This can be an ID card or a letter from your employer.
These criteria may vary between states and territories. If in doubt, please contact your employer.
 
Actually, a 40+ year old can get Pfizer from a GP within a week in

Sydney
Melbourne
Perth
Brisbane
Adelaide

Some intercity travel required

People with families here, I believe are travelling here for holidays and returning to their usual place of residence.
It would be good to drill down, to how many multiple visits in and out?

We have a friend who is fifo, from another country, transits here for a few hours, then goes through to green zone on to another flight to another country.
 
I tried to book my wheelchair friend in for a pfizer shot locally and nothing available for months, i looked up until the end of November and gave up

They can get one at RMIT Medical Hub provided 18+

Provided he satisfies the following: (are they on NDIS?)


Are you a person with disability?
How do I know if this applies to me find out the definition of How do I know if this applies to me

You should answer Yes to this question if one or more of the following apply to you:

  • you live in a disability residential accommodation setting (with two or more people with disability)
  • you are living with disability (such as Down Syndrome, muscular dystrophy, traumatic brain or spinal cord injury, or severe intellectual disability) and need frequent assistance with activities of daily living
  • you attend centre-based services such as day programs, respite care or supported employment
  • you are a participant in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
If none of the above apply to you and you are living with disability, there will be a question later that may apply to you if you also have an underlying medical condition.

I fall under that category and could only get a booking for mid August

I don’t understand his popularity as a person. He seems curmudgeonly and totally devoid of charisma?

That's what the hogs like about him, they see someone as ugly, talentless and charisma-free as they are, and they're like "he's a guy like me! I can vote for a guy like me!"

Same reason why people like Barnaby get in, just hogs looking out for each other

People just aren’t keyed in to politics. On the surface he’s just inoffensive and a bit jolly. And that’s all that a hell of a lot of people see. They don’t go any deeper.

Combine it with a nonstop PR campaign by their partners in the media, and it’s really not that hard for them to maintain. Anything short of him kicking a baby on camera and it’s easy enough to work with.
 
Albanese needs to take this football and run with it.

Aside from exposing yet more shocking mismanagement, it'd probably appeal to the older portion of the "fu** off we're full" crowd.

He can run with it all he wants. Major media just ignores him and doesn’t publish it. They only give him attention when theyre doing a hit job on him.
 
Is mandating hotel quarantine for an interstate traveller from Bendigo (not a hotspot) who is highly unlikely to have COVID, placing them in the same facility as returned travellers who are likely to have COVID, that person contracting the Virus, and the flying the next day to the NT because they quite rightly didn't consider Bendigo a hotspot, a federal responsibility?

This is one of the most ill considered, idiotic f"ck ups to date. It has nothing to do with the Feds. This is direct failure of state policy that goes against any national recommendations let alone common sense.

It has now seeded clusters in NT, QLD and SA.

QLD are now seeking to reduce their Int HQ intake to free up beds for Queenslanders returning from hotspots (without admission of guilt of course). Why don't they just buy one of these magical off the shelf quarantine centres that are seemingly so easy to procure?
OK,

And which branch of Government is responsible for Quarantine in Australia?

I'm not sure they're too easy to procure, but I'm not sure why the Govt responsible for Quarantine waited until 16 months into a pandemic to do something about it.

I mean, it's been foreseeable for over a year that HQ wasn't fit for purpose. But the Government responsible did nothing.

Then there's a mistake in HQ and they jump on their high horse??

Where are the state supposed to put people who might be at slight risk of COVID if they're also having to deal with the people who are at high risk who have come back and forth multiple times? Again. Who's responsible for Quarantine?!?!?!

A seperate hotel to OS travellers?

State quarantine is not a federal responsibility, Bendigo wasn't even a hotspot, although the premiers have always made this bit up as they go.

That’s it. I read an article recently interviewing people who voted for him & they genuinely believe he’s the daggy dad, go sharkies guy his marketing team came up with.
You have to dig a little deeper to see the conniving psycho underneath.
God imagine if a labor government had done even a small amount of the dodgy & incompetent things he’s done. They’d have been utterly buried by the Murdoch machine.
Instead we get puff pieces & nothing to see here.

What are the odds the people from Indonesia who were known to be COVID positive and got a chartered Medivac flight to Sth Australia, waved through by the SA Govt and Border Force are Liberal Donors?

There have been allegations on the net for weeks that private jets are bypassing quarantine by landing in regional Australia to let their wealthy clientele bypass HQ

its telling that no one is surprised we’re it to be the case

I’ve said it before. In my early teens, my family started worshipping at a church that was a bit happy clappy. Morrison is totally one of the bullschitting suburban dad church elders that would get up to speak. Even as a 12 year old I saw through them and knew they were full of schitte.

And now one of them has bullschitted their way into the Lodge.
