@gannfanman @OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage The UK only imposed hard lockdowns AFTER the NHS was completely overwhelmed. The UK has one of the worst pandemic public health performances, save for a very well coordinated and fast vaccine roll out, which now allows more freedoms and lower death rates, despite high cases.

@fluffie_o @GaryMccollom @atalanta44 @OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage I know, I'm just bored. While it stays polite, I've got nothing else to do 🤣

@GaryMccollom @atalanta44 @OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage And if you are trying to argue that the vaccinations are not effective against serious illness and death, just look at the vaccinated versus unvaccinated stats for those in hospital, in ICU and dying here in Aus. Only the very elderly with comorbidities dying when double vaxxed.

[Sam Jackson @SamJackson57]

@GaryMccollom @atalanta44 @OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage Infections yes (but a very large proportion are unvaccinated). Any country with a high vaccination rate experiencing higher death rates than last year, is because they have rolled back restrictions and the unvaccinated are dying at very high rates. Just look at the southern US.

@GaryMccollom @atalanta44 @OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage If we had Sweden's death rate, we would have had 37,500 deaths in Australia so far. 37,500! We've lost less than 1,200. I'm still not sure what any of you are trying to say? If it's about the economy, Sweden's economy performed about the same as Australia's during the pandemic.

[Sam Jackson @SamJackson57]

@OsSully @Mirella_PhD @davidestcourt @theage Sweden has recorded just under 15,000 deaths with a population only a touch over 10million. I'm not sure what your point is??

[Sam Jackson @SamJackson57]

@mouthforhire I think the issue is it might put the NZ bubble at risk. NZ could pull the pin if they think we can't enforce the rules. That was my read on it anyway.

In these unprecedented times, please take a moment to think about those more vulnerable people in your social and professional networks who may need a little more assistance, who may be self isolating because of… https://t.co/yz4qKvae3h

@Maximus50622632 @yarratrams Not when you make a decision to live in a suburb that, at the time, was advertised as a 100% low floor route. As it was, for the first 5 years I lived in Port Melbourne. One of only 3 or 4 suburbs that had full access. Taking away a previously accessible service is different.

[Sam Jackson @SamJackson57]

@yarratrams, where are all the accessible trams on the 109? Stuck in the city.... again.

@yarratrams Not if you're in a wheelchair. But that's ok. The exercise was nice.

@Ticketek_AU @Ticketek_AU [email protected] or [email protected]. Please call me on 0407 809 240 urgently to discuss the changes Ticketek will be making to the ticketing process for disabled customers. Otherwise I will continue drafting the discrimination application to VEOHRC

[Sam Jackson @SamJackson57]

deja vu @Ticketek_AU. 12 months on and no change to a broken system. Accessible seating hotline has either been engaged or directed me to the website all day. Fine if the website didn't direct you back to the hotline as the only way to get access tickets! https://t.co/M8W3y81YGw

Left on ANOTHER PLANE without my wheelchair being brought to the gate. No idea where it is. Waiting for TOO LONG! Australian airlines need to sort their shit out. It is inhumane and unfair taking peoples independence away and not caring about it
