COVID

The Harm Done Demands a COVID Post-Mortem

Freedom of information documents recently acquired by Liberal Senator Alex Antic of South Australia shows that the former Morrison government, under domestic terrorism response protocols, sought out cyber censorship of COVID-related content that, in practice, amounted to the silencing of voices daring to question vaccines, lockdowns, and mandatory vaccination.[1] As reported by Chris Kenny, the Australian Government treated concerns about the safety of COVID vaccines as domestic terrorism. From 2017 to 2022, the Department of Home Affairs petitioned social media sites to censor information 13,646 times.[2] This included “suppressed Covid-19 posts from doctors who disagreed with official public health and vaccine information”. The information reveals “an Australian Government department as a key player in the COVID censorship industrial complex”.[3]

Since the beginning of 2021, the official narrative with regards to the COVID-19 vaccines has maintained  they are safe, efficacious and saving lives. For example, Premier Mark McGowan of Western Australia stated that, “by getting to higher levels of third-dose vaccination we’re going to save lots of lives.”[4]  It is now patently clear, however, that mRNA vaccines prevent neither infection nor transmission. Speaking on these very vaccines, a member of the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisations (ATAGI), now acknowledges that “the more doses you get, the less benefit you derive from them and then we start to worry about causing side effects”.[5]

Those who were forced by the government and compliant employers to be vaccinated can still catch and transmit COVID-19. As evidence of the inefficacy of these vaccines, in a study supported by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), members of the Upper Midwest Regional Accelerator for Genomic Surveillance, funded by the Rockefeller Foundation, concluded that vaccinated people can still catch and transmit COVID-19 and, once infected, the vaccinated are as likely to infect others as the unvaccinated.[6] According to Dr Jayanta Bhattcharya,[7] a professor of medicine, economics, and health research and policy at Stanford University, from a medical perspective the necessary conditions for vaccine mandates are entirely not present. If a vaccine fails to stop disease transmission, he says, then “the idea that you need to vaccinate other people so that I’m protected is just false”.[8]

We are disturbed by the ungracious and untruthful way that some people are speaking about those who have concerns about the safety and/or the effectiveness of the vaccines. WA Premier Mark McGowan has set the tone, declaring, “They’re a pack of drongos, idiots, morons, absolute cretins”.[9] Sadly, others in the community seem all too eager to follow his vile example. However, in succeeding months, there were indications that this official narrative, fanatically promoted by governments and health bureaucracies and ruthlessly enforced by politicised police forces, is misleading, even neglectful in the light of the demonstrable side-effects of the vaccines. These side-effects have been noted, and sometimes irresponsibly denied. United States President Joe Biden even disingenuously called the pandemic “a pandemic of the unvaccinated.”[10] This claim is patently untrue, as demonstrated by both the science and the statistics. Writing in the The Lancet, Carlos Franco-Paredes, associate professor of infectious diseases at the University of Colorado, comments:

The scientific rationale for mandatory vaccination in the USA relies on the premise that vaccination prevents transmission to others, resulting in a “pandemic of the unvaccinated”. Yet, the demonstration of COVID-19 breakthrough infections among fully vaccinated health-care workers (HCW) in Israel, who in turn may transmit this infection to their patients, requires a reassessment of compulsory vaccination policies … Indeed, there is growing evidence that peak viral titres in the upper airways of the lungs and culturable virus are similar in vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. A recent investigation by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of an outbreak of COVID-19 in a prison in Texas showed the equal presence of infectious virus in the nasopharynx of vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. Similarly, researchers in California observed no major differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals in terms of SARS-CoV-2 viral loads in the nasopharynx, even in those with proven asymptomatic infection.[11]

This scientific research reveals the fully vaccinated are getting infected at the same rate as the unvaccinated. They are transmitting the virus to others at least at the same rate, too. Therefore, it is worth noting that, if vaccination effectively does not prevent COVID-19 infection and transmission, then there was no good reason to force anyone to get vaccinated. As Professor Franco-Paredes had indicated in January 2022, breakthrough infections among the fully vaccinated, not to mention ongoing transmissions from the fully vaccinated, “requires a reassessment of compulsory vaccination policies.”[12] To illustrate this, on January 15, 2022, six people died of COVID-19 in Queensland – and all six were vaccinated. The Queensland Chief Health Officer, Dr John Gerrard, reported:

Sadly, we have six deaths to report today … All these people had in fact received a vaccine. It is a reminder that even the vaccinated can get severe disease, particularly if you have underlying medical issues.[13]

For these six people, and many more like them each day, the vaccines have been a total failure.

A book published in 2022 gives a comprehensive insight into the thinking of many doctors in the United States. The book, Vaxlit: Vaccinated from Truth, is authored by an insider using the pseudonym “Pharmaceutical Rep” who has more than two decades of experience working for a Big Pharma company producing one variant of the mRNA vaccines.[14] He has been privy to interesting and revealing pieces of information about the safety and efficacy of the vaccines. However, when authoring the book, he sought to remain anonymous because those who question the official version regarding the safety and efficacy of the vaccines may be dismissed. But in his book, the author courageously provides valuable information for the public and facilitates an understanding of the hidden insalubrious story of the vaccines.

Especially egregious was the constant threat to dismiss doctors who prescribed ivermectin to alleviate the COVID-19 symptoms. This medicine, awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 2015, is a cheap and safe wonder drug for anti-viral treatment in humans. Relevantly, the author of Vaxlit refers to the fact that, in the period between 1996 to 2021, only fifteen deaths have been attributed to the use of ivermectin. By contrast, in just 13 months, as of January 7, 2022, there were 20,745 documented deaths directly associated with the use of the COVID-19 vaccines, as reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), an agency co-managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The death toll could well be much higher because only 1 per cent of cases were reported to that agency.[15]

The author also recalls the disastrous promotion of vaccination of children, even infants, with an experimental drug, not knowing what the consequences might be. In Australia, following the adoption of recommendations from the Australian Technical Advisory Group (‘ATAGI’), the Australian government decided to extend the COVID-19 vaccination program to all children aged 5 to 11 years.[16] This was a disturbing development because, on July 19, 2021, the UK government’s Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) had already issued an official statement advising against the vaccination of children under 18. As stated in the relevant document: “JCVI is of the view that the health benefits of universal vaccination in children and young people below the age of 18 years do not outweigh the potential risks”.[17] So, given the potential harms of vaccines, of which myocarditis is just one, and the unknown potential long-term adverse effects which may come to light only after many years, the decision of the Australian government to vaccinate everyone regardless of age and/or health condition was objectively wrong and not supported by the scientific evidence. As an article from the British Medical Journal explains:

From a public health standpoint, it makes poor sense to impose vaccine side-effects on people at minimal risk of severe COVID-19. The argument that it protects others is weak or contrary to evidence. This conclusion suggests a policy of targeting vaccination to those at highest risk, allowing broader post-infection immunity to provide community protection.[18]

The sound evidence presented by the author of Vaxlit is truly compelling. He concludes that “we are being gaslit about the safety and efficacy of the COVID vaccines.”[19] The book demonstrates that there are clearly valid reasons to be sceptical of the vaccines (efficacy being just one of them), and those who refuse the injections, using the language of WA Premier Mark McGowan, should not be ridiculed as people who “need to grow a brain”.[20]

There is little doubt the official narrative has been entirely misleading and deceptive. The suspicion that people have been misled about the safety and efficacy of the vaccines was strengthened by governments’ discontinuation of their comparative reporting on unvaccinated and vaccinated populations. For example, in the United Kingdom (U.K.), Public Health Scotland announced in late February 2022 that it would stop reporting deaths and hospitalisations by vaccination status.[21] The U.K. Health Security Agency, in its March 31 report, has announced the same change.[22] This report shows that in the previous four weeks nearly 90 per cent of adult cases “presenting to emergency care” with an overnight stay, and more than 90 per cent of deaths, were vaccinated and especially fully vaccinated”.[23]

In the US, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) was under considerable pressure to release its safety and efficacy data on COVID vaccines and therapeutics. Epidemiologists say the FDA “generated more confusion than clarity” from public vaccine data, obscuring the crucial question: the likelihood of a serious adverse reaction occurring per vaccination dose.[24] “The fact that the data in the FDA’s possession has remained behind an FDA firewall for more than 18 months is appalling,” wrote Rep. Bill Posey (R-Fla.) to Commissioner Robert Califf, noting the agency unsuccessfully asked a court to dribble out Pfizer vaccine data over a period of 55-75 years.[25]

The 1967 Freedom of Information Law in the U.S. requires federal agencies to respond to information requests within twenty business days. However, when a group of more than thirty professors and scientists from universities including Yale, Harvard, UCLA and Brown asked the US government to share the data it relied upon in licensing Pfizer’s COVID vaccine, 55 years is how long FDA proposed it should be given to review and release the vaccine-related documents responsive to the request. Yes, 55 years! As a result, these professors and scientists filed a lawsuit in September 2021 in the Northern District of Texas seeking expedited access to the records. They contended that releasing the information could help reassure the vaccine is indeed “safe and effective and, thus, increase confidence in the Pfizer vaccine.”[26]

In Australia, the then-prime minister Scott Morrison initially wanted the COVID vaccines to be near compulsory. “I expect that it would be as mandatory as you can possibly make it,” he told Melbourne’s 3AW radio. “We’ve got to get to 95 per cent.” [27]  However, in the following months evidence continued to mount that the COVID vaccines did not deserve the provisional approval given to them by the Australian Government’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). Concerning injuries caused by the COVID vaccines, as of November 15, 2021, over 10,000 Australians had lodged injury claims under the government’s “COVID-19 vaccine claims scheme” set up to “reimburse people who suffer a moderate to significant impact following an adverse reaction to an approved COVID-19 vaccine.”[28]. On April 3, 2023, the following claimable clinical conditions were added to the scheme:

♦ transverse myelitis (AstraZeneca)

♦ cerebral venous sinus thrombosis without thrombocytopenia (AstraZeneca)

♦ erythema multiforme – major (Moderna and Pfizer).

In addition, myocarditis and pericarditis were also designated as claimable clinical conditions for the Novavax vaccine. The government website indicates that “The new clinical conditions and the inclusion of Myocarditis and Pericarditis for Novavax can be claimed retrospectively from the start of the COVID-19 vaccine roll-out on 22 February 2021.”[29]

As of 30 January 2022, the TGA had received 106,173 reports of adverse effects from the current vaccines.[30]

Concerns about adverse side effects are too numerous to ignore. A cost-benefit analysis by Stephanie Seneff, a senior research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and independent researcher Kathy Dopp, shows that these vaccines may be much deadlier than COVID itself. Their important cost-benefit analysis looked at publicly available official data from the UK and the US for all age groups and compared all-cause mortality to the risk of dying from COVID.  They concluded

All age groups under 50 years old are at greater risk of fatality after receiving a COVID vaccination than an unvaccinated person is at risk of a COVID death … all age groups under 80 years old have virtually not benefited from receiving a COVID vaccine, and the younger ages incur significant risks. [31]

According to Seneff and Dopp:

This analysis is conservative because it ignores the fact that inoculation-induced adverse events such as thrombosis, myocarditis, Bells’ palsy, and other vaccine-induced injuries can lead to a shortened life span. When one takes into consideration the fact there is approximately a 90% cent decrease in risk of COVID-19 death if early treatment is provided to all symptomatic high-risk persons, one can only conclude that mandates of COVID-19 inoculations are ill-advised. Considering the emergence of antibody-resistance variants like Delta and Omicron, for most age groups COVID-19 vaccine inoculations result in higher death rates than COVID-19 does for the unvaccinated.[32]

The Australian media has recently reported on the case of a Melbourne family that have caught COVID 14 times between them despite being fully vaccinated. “The family say that they fell like ‘dominoes’ and being vaccinated did not prevent being reinfected”. [33] They are not alone and there are many other stories from fully vaccinated people contracting COVID three, four and sometimes five times. By now we must be entirely convinced that the fully vaccinated are not protected against COVID. Indeed, the fact that our governments mandated a “booster” injection every four months was tangible proof of how poorly these vaccines had been performing. Thus, the question was why any, let alone so many, of the vaccinated can become so critically ill from the very disease they have been vaccinated against. This should make us more seriously question (a) the effectiveness of these vaccines, (b) the legitimacy of reservations about these vaccines, and (c) the supreme illegitimacy of forcing people to be injected with such vaccines.

Curiously, the official narrative, which sought to placate people’s concern about the safety of the vaccines, financially benefited Big Pharma, with the Pfizer stock price soaring. So, the question should be asked whether governments and the media were colluding to ensure an increase in Big Pharma’s corporate profits, which however, did not prioritise the protection of health. Dr Peter McCullough, a leading and renowned cardiologist, says that “under no circumstances” should anyone, particularly those already suffering from heart conditions, receive a COVID vaccine “because of the damage it can do to the heart”.[34] This is so because evidence shows that heart damage can be caused by an mRNA vaccine.[35] In fact, even the Australian Human Rights Commission, on its website, encourages service providers “to carefully consider the position of vulnerable groups in the community before imposing any blanket COVID-19 vaccination policies or conditions.”[36]

To make it worse, scientists have now discovered that mRNA vaccines, not COVID infection itself, may cause brain and heart damage. For instance, a study published in October 2022 in the journal Vaccines reports the fascinating results of the autopsy of a patient who had no history of COVID infection.[37] The article provides compelling evidence that the patient’s death was directly caused by the mRNA vaccine.[38] “In the heart, signs of chronic cardiomyopathy as well as mild acute lympho-histiocytic myocarditis and vasculitis were present. Although there was no history of COVID-19 for this patient, immunohistochemistry for SARS-CoV-2 antigens (spike and nucleocapsid proteins) was performed”.[39]

Dr Young Dong, a doctor with more than 20 years of experience in virological and immunological research, believes that, at the general population level, the risks of imposing vaccine mandates substantially exceeds the benefits.[40] According to John Ionnidis, professor of medicine and epidemiology at Stanford University, the average rate of death for COVID, when adjusted from a wide age range and unreported cases, could be as low as to that of influenza.[41] According to him, more than 80 per cent of those who get the virus have no symptoms or these symptoms are actually very mild. In fact, even the World Health Organisation (‘WHO’) acknowledges that “most people infected with the virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring especial treatment”.

Jennifer Margulis and Joe Wang report that, in the 2021-2022 period, there has been a sudden and unexplained surge of age-inappropriate deaths in at least 30 countries in the industrialized world. They refer to research undertaken by Ed Dowd for his book Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in which he argues that “the sudden deaths in young people in industrialized countries are due to mRNA vaccines.” Relevantly, Dowd shows that “the number of excess deaths in America attributed to COVID-19 in 2020 was actually much lower than the huge spike in sudden deaths that began in 2021 after the COVID-19 vaccines started being widely distributed.”[42]

With such low risks for most people, why was the entire population of Australia coerced to be vaccinated with the experimental vaccines? This is especially so given the potential for side effects which can lead to death, as is demonstrated by the dramatic surge in sudden deaths in countries around the world, including Australia, Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom, of which many have been causally related to mRNA vaccines.[43] Australia closely followed World Health Organisation’s guidelines since the start of the pandemic. By the end of 2021, the nation reached a vaccination rate of 80 per cent of the population.[44] Despite having such an impressive vaccination rate, last year, 174,000 deaths were registered in Australia, which is 20,000 more than projections estimated. This represents the highest number of excess deaths on record since the end of World War II.[45]

These excess deaths are mostly related to cancer and heart issues, including heart failure, stroke, atrial fibrillation, myocardial infraction, and heart disease. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has acknowledged that the evidence shows that mRNA vaccines have caused many types of heart conditions, including myocarditis.[46] , a condition that inflames and weakens the heart muscle and which can result in death. In fact, a considerable number of blind-reviewed academic papers have directly linked these vaccines with a higher risk of myocarditis, and even Pfizer scientists now acknowledge that there has been increased cases of myocarditis after vaccination.[47] Dr Ross Walker, a practicing cardiologist with 40 years of clinical experience, believes that mRNA vaccines are “very pro-inflammatory”, and so they should never have been mandated.[48] On  November 24, 2022, he stated the following about such vaccines and heart conditions:

I don’t think we should be having the mRNA vaccines. I’ve seen in my own practice as a private cardiologist 60-70 patients over the past 12 months who have had similar reactions to this. Whether it’s pericarditis or the more serious myocarditis. I’ve seen a lot of people get chest pain, shortness of breath, heart palpitations.[49]  

For the reasons mentioned above, Dr Kenji Yamamoto, a cardiovascular surgeon who works at Okamura Memorial Hospital in Shizuoka, Japan, recently called for the discontinuation of COVID booster shots. In a letter to the peer-reviewed journal Virology, he explains that he and his colleagues have “encountered cases of infections that are difficult to control,” including some that occurred after open-heart surgery and were still not under control after several weeks of treatment with multiple antibiotics. “As a safety measure, further booster vaccinations should be discontinued”, Dr Yamamoto wrote. [50]

The points made by these researchers and leading experts in the fields about the efficacy and health risks generated by compulsory vaccination is a legitimate cause for serious concern. Certainly, the potential for severe injury from the COVID vaccines is a matter that deserves serious reflection, and none were more instrumental to causing this tragedy than the government and their loyal mouthpieces in the mainstream media.

Government authorities irresponsibly concealed these figures, and even when they were revealed in press conferences, news outlets generally did not report them, or reported them in passing halfway through an article. Still, the numerous existing accounts are entirely credible and reveal what dangers are associated with these experimental vaccines.

Never forget what the oppressive and illiberal health brigade did to us. Those who are responsible for this deadly cover up must be held fully accountable for the loss of so many lives and livelihoods.

25 thoughts on “The Harm Done Demands a COVID Post-Mortem

  • Citizen Kane says:

    An excellent overview of the mounting evidence of what is sure to become ‘the story of the century’, not that the pathetic excuses for journalists at the ABC will be giving it any air-time.

    ‘For example, in the United Kingdom (U.K.), Public Health Scotland announced in late February 2022 that it would stop reporting deaths and hospitalisations by vaccination status.[21] The U.K. Health Security Agency, in its March 31 report, has announced the same change.[22] This report shows that in the previous four weeks nearly 90 per cent of adult cases “presenting to emergency care” with an overnight stay, and more than 90 per cent of deaths, were vaccinated and especially fully vaccinated”.[23]’

    The same thing happened in NSW official data (the most comprehensive data of all Australian jurisdictions) in late March 2022 when data was clearly demonstrating that on both a pro-rata and gross measure, vaccinated individuals were outstripping unvaccinated individuals on all three measures of hospitalisation, ICU admission and death. This was first identified and published here in Quadrant online: https://quadrant.org.au/opinion/media/2022/02/lies-damned-lies-statistics-and-journalism/

    Initially the NSW authorities decided to bolster the unvaccinated numbers by combining with the previously separate ‘unknown vaccination status’ category for a number of reporting periods into April 2022. When it became clear that even that artificial tainting of the data would not suffice to make it seem as vaccinated patients were less liable to serious illness they simply scrapped recording vaccination status alltogethor as in the UK.

    Congratulations to the authors for their tireless efforts in shining some small spotlight on what now requires the shutters to be removed so that full exposure to the sunlight and its cleansing truth may ensue. Bring on the Royal Commission, Bring on the lawsuits.

    • Watchman Williams says:

      A Royal Commission is a pipe-dream! Government appoints the Royal Commissioner and Government is the author of the Covid disaster. And the media, as cheer-leader and chief propagandist for the Government’s response, is not likely to agitate for any sort of objective enquiry.

  • Another Richard Harrison says:

    In my benighted State of Victoria, any real accountability for our shoddy and corrupt government’s myriad failures and abuses during the Covid years remains a pipe dream.

    Back in 2020, I contacted the office of the State Coroner of Victoria to ask when the coroner would be holding an inquest into nearly a thousand deaths that resulted from government mismanagement of hotel quarantine earlier that year. The response I received was a brush-off, and no such inquest has yet even been hinted at.

    Perhaps it is only coincidence that the coroner is running dead (pardon the pun), as he is the third John Cain to grace Victoria with his service in high office, his father and grandfather having been Labor Party premiers of no discernible merit.

    Our premier did set up a Board of Inquiry to investigate the hotel quarantine scandal, but true to form selected a tame ex-judge who presided over a farce in which the said premier and other ministers gave an exhibition in selective memory loss that ought to attract the interest of neurologists for years to come.

    • Jackson says:

      And who can forget the brilliant “creeping assumptions” defence that got everyone off the hook? Surely this gambit deserves to become a classic addition to the Tyrants Playbook for decades to come. How gleefully they must be dining out on that one, at taxpayers expense!

  • Stephen Due says:

    It is worth noting also that it was known well before the ‘vaccines’ were ever rolled out that Covid presented no threat to people under 70. In addition, it was readily treatable according to published expert protocols, using cheap repurposed drugs – which the TGA proceeded to ban. The primary reason for the ban was that their use would encourage vaccine hesitancy! In other words, the purpose of the ban was to force the public to accept the vaccine.
    Much of this folly has been blamed on vested interests – for example, the TGA is funded by drug companies. However, my distinct impression is that actually it has been driven mainly by media hype, combined with gross ignorance and groupthink at the upper levels of the public service, including the state and federal health departments. The result has been a public health, social and economic catastrophe.

    • Citizen Kane says:

      It can’t be overlooked that Fauci & Gates et al. were busting at the seams to bring mRNA gene therapy into the broader medical pharmacopeia prior to COVID. They saw it as the next great medical revolution. Whether by happenstance or design, COVID provided that opportunity without having to navigate the usual testing regimes and longitudinal studies on efficacy and safety as it was ushered through under emergency protocols. Probably Trump’s greatest failure was to be hoodwinked by Fauci on this, but you could imagine the pressure he must have been under to do ‘something’. How disappointing it must be to these sinister individuals that their next big thing in vaccine technology is such an abject failure.

      • Stephen Due says:

        Gates, at least, has publicly admitted the product was a failure, since it did not stop transmission. While Fauci et al are arguing that they acted throughout in accordance with ‘the science’, Gates is presenting the whole thing as a grand experiment which, sadly, did not live up to expectations.
        Many commentators have observed falling birth rates and escalating death rates since the vaccine rollout. We know that Gates wants to save the planet by reducing global population and fixing the climate. Therefore he may well be secretly pleased with the outcome of the experimental injections. Certainly, the ‘pandemic’ ’emergency’ has been a resounding success for the globalists. Governments worldwide have acted in lock-step to implement the globalist agenda – and have effectively deployed advanced surveillance systems, psychological warfare and militarised police forces to control the expected backlash. With the implementation of CBDCs, they will achieve total control. Human rights and democratic government will cease to exist.

    Chris Kenny swings back to the Right on Covid:

    • pgang says:

      Kenny is a leaf blowing in the wind.

    • Jackson says:

      Kenny caved in and became part of the problem (ie aiding and abetting the pro-vax propaganda) together with the rest of the Skynews crew after the whole crew was sin-binned by YouTube for a week after Alan Jones did too good a job reporting actual facts without fear or favour. That was in mid 2021. It will be a long way back from there to redemption for CK, if ever. Only a full whistle blower type confession, providing all of the details as to why he allowed himself to be muzzled by his Sky lords and masters will provide a pathway back to credibility and the possibility of rehabilitation.

      • vickisanderson says:

        Thanks Jackson, for reminding me how that volte face on Sky happened. It is really instructive to observe the response when significant and powerful forces are subject to scrutiny.

    • Watchman Williams says:

      Alas, Chris Kenny, like most journalists, has swallowed the Kool Aid, not just on the scamdemic, but also the climate scam and the Voice. From promising beginnings, he has evolved into a “progressive”, one of the self-anointed prophets of the new enlightenment.

  • irisr says:

    Support calls for a Royal Commission!
    “question should be asked whether governments and the media were colluding to ensure an increase in Big Pharma’s corporate profits, which however, did not prioritise the protection of health. ”

    Worse, is it true that Clive Palmer’s millions of Hydroxychloroquine were destroyed instead of released to the public?
    Both HCQ and Ivermectine were banned. Prohibition by decree.
    Border Force were instructed to detect and confiscate overseas deliveries of these medicines thru the Post.
    We aren’t even close to recovering from this massive despotic control exercise.

    • Stephen Due says:

      Yes the Clive Palmer HCQ fiasco was interesting. Why on earth did Clive buy it and then hand it over without asking the government whether they wanted it? On the other hand, the destruction of it was extremely high-handed and wasteful. They definitely did not want this to be used.
      Most of what was done in Australia has a mirror image in the USA, and this is no exception. When Trump was about to release the huge US stockpile of HCQ, the Deep State operatives found a way to legally lock it up so it could not be distributed.
      This is how totalitarian tyranny works. Create fear. Declare an ’emergency’. Announce the solution (predetermined to suit the interests of friends of the government). Ban everything other option Silence dissent with censorship and threats of violence (i.e. police intimidation) and if necessary actual violence (rubber bullets, pepper spray etc).

      • irisr says:

        “Why on earth did Clive buy it “.. possibly to embarass the Government? To smooth a way back into Parliament? Because Trump promoted it?
        He may be a grand-standing bufoon, but in the end it’s the facts that matter: he did donate it to our own stockpile and it would have been helpful if not for the ban (and destruction, if true).
        As for the rubber bullets, the online monitoring and censorship, the lockdowns and mandates: if we need a Makaratta, this should be it!

        • vickisanderson says:

          Along with the thousands who attended the Darling Harbour Convention Centre addresses by Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Pierre Kory & others, I heard Clive tell the story of his own near death experience with Covid & how he was treated successfully with Ivermectin – after the hospital told him he was about to die. Needless to say, he wasn’t treated in that hospital. As result, Clive brought out these dissenting medicos to tell the real story of Covid & the vaccines to anyone who wants to hear the truth.

  • STD says:

    What are, and are there any lessons in this for the average punter when it comes to the other government and corporate mandated pressure and inflammatory issue- THE VOICE?
    DO WE HAVE REASON TO JUSTIFIABLY DOUBT IN THE BLIND BELIEF IN THE TRUE EFFICACY OF THE VOICE AND ARE THERE LATENT VIRAL DORMANCY ISSUES WITH THIS TEAT AS well?

  • Watchman Williams says:

    Perhaps the worst aspect of the Covid scam was the extent to which the medical profession sold out to the health bureaucrats. It was patently obvious to any doctor caring to make the effort to examine the facts, that Covid 19 did not deserve the hysterical response given it by Government.
    One is reminded of the Nazi era in Germany, in which doctors carried out the instructions of the Government in certifying hundreds of thousands of people considered socially useless for sterilisation, or even death.
    So much for Hippocrates.

    • vickisanderson says:

      My view is that GPs were individually either 1) scared of Covid like the rest of the population 2) understood the real statistics but were afraid to lose their careers if they dissented 3) progressively understood the “science” as the evidence emerged – but still were under instructions from the AMA not to dissent

  • Ian MacDougall says:

    As usual at this ‘liberal’ journal, and as with its extolling of the virtues of burning fossil carbon, the priority has to be business-as-usual. That criterion decides everything else, despite, say, what might be found via https://www.mayoclinic.org/coronavirus-covid-19/why-get-vaccinated

    • joemiller252 says:

      Ian, have you read the Mayo Clinic piece? The lead says:

      Key takeaways

      A COVID-19 vaccine MIGHT:

      Protect you from getting COVID-19
      Prevent you from becoming seriously ill, becoming hospitalized or dying due to COVID-19
      Limit the spread of COVID-19.

      NOTE THE MIGHT.

  • Geoff Sherrington says:

    Authors,
    You seniority in Law is acknowledged. There are many people who asuspect that aspects of vaccines and Covid measures at least border on the unlawful, but we are astounded by the inaction of the legal profession. Are lawyers avoiding the initiation of remediation while awaiting cash from clients, or are lawyers not quite sure that there is a case that could be prosecuted? Or another reason for apparent timidity about questioning social injustice involving deaths?
    In my corporate working days, if I and/or close colleagues discerned an impending injustice, often first made known to us by our in-house lawyers, we would be quite immediate and aggressive in bringing matters to various Courts, up to the Full Bench of the High Court.
    Geoff S

    • vickisanderson says:

      Geoff, there HAVE been a number of cases prosecuted for wrongful dismissal etc. My understanding is that these have been routinely denied by the courts involved – mostly, I think, the Federal Court.

  • vickisanderson says:

    It is a pity that ATAGI’s latest advice (that the more doses you have decreases the benefits & starts to precipitate concerns for side effects) has not been reported in the mass media. A friend who has become aware of side effects through an afflicted relative, is nevertheless embarking on her 5th injection because she is travelling overseas and thinks she will be at risk of contracting Covid.

    Given the false comfort given by ATAGI in the past, the least they can do is disseminate this new advice as widely as possible.
