Because, if it wasnt for public health measures, the "minuscule" deaths would be very much higher.....No that’s the plan to deal with public health - isn’t that the big issue ?
Covid as a proportion of deaths in this country is minuscule - why do 2-3000 deaths from Covid become more important ? It’s treated like some mystical beast
Authoritarian government telling you exactly how you should live to keep us safe
Next up - contact sport is banned because it causes too many broken bones in hospitals on the weekend
What do you think may have happened to Australian covid death numbers if we had just let her rip back in April 2020?? Insignificant number of deaths??
Even now with opening and a well vaccinated population, deaths are still rising.
Using 2-3000 deaths as an example of covid not been that serious is counterintuitive if its not acknowledged that the reason deaths are lower than other countries is due to our public health actions. Its like those people on McGowans facebook who write "wow 9 WA deaths, some pandemic"....without appreciating the fact that WA has been largely isolated and protected by public heath measures.
