So when was it included in the advice from your fellow health bureaucrats? About the same time as hydration, paracetamol and rest? So about February 2022.
we all know this, which is why we've asked how getting vaccinated is anything other than an action to protect the individual.

I don't think it's controversial. I am surprised that he equates the effectiveness of boosters with the effectiveness of fresh air.

Animals bomb their own people and try and still blame it on israel
Mate there were several articles back in early 2020 about how poor ventilation will increase the virus speed. Article and advice from the CDC, Lancet, National Libary of Medicine
In Australia, Safe Work Australia, ABC did a good article about that same subject in July 2020, Even several Union articles mention it and offer advice to improve ventilation.
Its was really only WHO who downplayed airborne transmission, early 2020.
Surprised there has not been alot of talk about Israel's Rafael Iron Dome missile defence system'
580 rockets fired from Gaza, 200 intercepted by The Rafael Iron dome which is only used when incoming projectiles are headed for populated areas, 120 fell short.
When first introduced in 2011 the success rate protecting populated areas was 75%. in 2014 it was 80%, in 2021 it was 90% recently it has been 97%.
Just for interest the US recently conducted a successful test at their white sand missile testing site.

This has been the longest most pointless war in my lifetime.
These 2 sadly are unlikely to ever get on... & will always look to blame the other (even is cases like this).
Too many in this world just want to fight, rather than compromise.
Question for the resident experts.
If I have cold and flu symptoms including fever etc and i return a negative PCR test and subsequently still advised to isolate, is this just till I feel better or per covid protocols?

its incredibly dumb tbh.
Firstly, there comes a point in time that you have to outway the damage returned with what you inflict. Overall, is it worth it and importantly are you achieving anything or are you just causing pain to your own people.
War is often created out of dumb arrogance and pride. Intelligence is never at fault.

There's been strong opposition to his second point by people in here, yourself included.
And like most knowledge from the early days it was ignored in favour of the only risk controls being vaccination and human control.
never by me, I dare you to find a post. I've only ever argued against mandatory vaccination based on the flawed belief that it impedes transmission. Find a post where I argue that vaccination doesn't reduce severity of illness. You and the lemmings were calling people selfish and dangerous from the beginning if they didn't want to get vaccinated. Why was that if it was only harming themselves?
Missus and I have had 3, last one was January, which was as early as we could get it. We've both just finished having it over the last couple of weeks. Not sure how much the doses improved our outcome, but we both had mild symptoms, not really being sick at all except for a couple of rough nights and congested lungs. Otherwise just a bit flat and a lot of sleeping, coughing up phlegm and nose blowing. Not sure which variant we had tough.
Till you feel better would be my bet. You're not entangled into the covid rules without testing positive for covid.
Dr actually said still 5 days.
That is just advice, unlike a + covid test, there's no law forcing you to do that. It may be the time required to stop being infectious, but it's not any sort of actual governmental requirement.
Was not totally ignored a lot of business revamped and improved their filters, large increase in Hepa filters during Covid particularly in the H10 to H12 however that was due to the H13 and H14 selling out.
Even today it is hard to get H13 filters large enough for most businesses.

You made numerous posts claiming that lifting of restrictions had nothing to do with the fact that vaccines had reduced risk of death and severe illness relative to 2020-21, and that these decisions were 100% political.
Look if you want to back flip and change your mind on this now I won’t make a big deal out of it, it’s good to have you back in the real world champ.
Edit: And to speak to your other point about whether vaccines ever impeded transmission or not, see below data from Delta variant era. At 5+ months, protection against any infection had dropped away but even then still substantially better than in unvaccinated people. These RCT findings were also reflected in the case rates at a population level.
In Omicron era protection afforded by vaccine or prior infection against any new infection drops away more quickly, hence now imo difficult to justify mandating vaccines anywhere outside highest risk settings such as hospitals or aged care where multiple layers of controls are applied to reduce risk to patients.

How about you actually try and find a post that claims vaccination doesn't reduce severity of illness. What you've posted is some kind of weird extrapolation. Nice try though, I knew you'd not be able to find anything, so you've manufactured a false correlation.
Which of the lemmings used excess deaths as iron clad proof of covid death stats.
www.abc.net.au
Non-COVID deaths are up a significant amount this year. What's driving the increase?
There has been a significant increase in the number of non-COVID deaths since the Omicron wave took off, and that has doctors worried.
Here's a direct post, I'm sure you'll have a few that contradict this, rather than rely on your own half-witted conspiracy about my views. See the bit where I state clearly that we got vaxxed to reduce severity of our illness. N

Quite astonishing words from the horse's mouth about how lockdowns in America were a process of policy first, then try to find the science later.
"Fifteen Days to Slow the Spread was a start, but I knew it would be just that. I didn’t have the numbers in front of me yet to make the case for extending it longer, but I had two weeks to get them."

Deborah Birx & COVID Lockdowns
Deborah Birx, the former White House coronavirus response coordinator is largely responsible for the COVID lockdowns, despite having no evidence of their effectiveness.
Sorry, this is US news, but some will find it pretty funny.
It's about not returning official documents apparently

Currently watching Fox News, it's like listening to AA after a Port loss.

Trump's Mar-a-Lago home searched by FBI in unprecedented move
At issue is the former president's handling of materials taken from the White House to his Florida estate. Law enforcement remains hush about it.
