Interesting article. Really puts a spot light on how the lockdowns effect POC, immigrants and the poorest among us more than the usually more affluent Letsrun crowd that on average has a better living situation (nicer house) & can more easily work from home.

If you use your brain for even half a second you would know that a country that has a far larger population and much larger international ties will have more problems with a virus than 2 island countries with small populations and little international visits/trade. Vaccinations aren't of a "critical urgency" on the 2 convict islands, but that changes when you wake up and realize you have to leave your paradise to work with another country. "Oh sorry, We aren't taking any Convicts right now because none of you are vaccinated". So you go live in that island paradise of yours while we use the 100s of millions of vaccines we have here.
Having a bad day?

Nope, just destroying this guy with the truth
Looks like the “short” lockdown is being extended until July 16th.
One quote that stood out to me from article-
“I don’t think we can live life normally for the next four months, we need to accept there will be restrictions, still get on with life but not go back to 2018, 2019. I don’t think that’s safe until at least October, November,” he said.
Where those clowns happy with Australian freedoms?
Another 2 weeks of draconian lockdowns in Sydney. But possibly much longer

I'm at work
Quite draconian...wish they said I shouldn't come to work
....and tonight I will pop in at shops on way home, cook a tuna bake, have a glass of red, and watch the big interstate Rugby league game on TV, then T d F.
Doing my best to keep this delta from spreading.
How about you, what's your 'freedom' giving you?
Gotta love this city

Being lectured by a loser coming from the country with the worst response to the pandemic of any is always kind of amusing. 600,000.

Did you know that on December 31, 2020, 99.86% of all Americans who should have been alive on that day were, in fact, alive ?

The New Zealand and Australia vaccination effort has been among if the worst, if not the absolute worst in the developed world. But COVID nationalism is very high in both New Zealand and Australia so most citizens of both those countries go around congratulating themselves on how great they handled COVID (read Facebook comments regarding COVID out of New Zealand especially- the self congratulations is nauseating).
You know you're calling a small area being asked to wear masks on public transport 'a lockdown'.
Why be so dishonest?
He's a Trumpette. Lying is what they do.

I guess that makes 600,000 deaths from Covid ok then. If it's ok then why are you guys fussed about what Australia is doing?

You bloodthirsty idiots, quoting the number of American COVID deaths like you are celebrating. The more the better for you.

I'm quite certain Armstronglivs would have preferred there be less American deaths but if you want to see the post as 'bloodthirsty' I'm sure no amount of reason is going to get in your way.

Two weeks to flatten the curve.

Enuff with that incredibly inflated number. Median age over 80, 94% with two or more deadly other health issues, 40% in nursing homes where the median life expectancy is five months. The vast majority of "Covid deaths' were of people who would have been dead by now if Covid never came along.

Bloodthirsty? It's being pointed out there is a contradiction in being criticized for a response to the pandemic by those from the country that has had one of the worst responses of any.

Oh, yeah - the old "they were going to die anyway" argument. What does it matter that it was sped up by a little old virus. It's not much different from being killed in a war - we are all going to die anyway and it was just sped up by a little old bullet.

..and the other 0.14%, why shouldn't they have been alive?
The “short” and “temporary” lockdown gets extended…again.
