Aside from "who decided what & when", I'll remind you what Melbourne faced. A new, highly infectious virus, with high mortality rates & terrifying overseas experience. If you're looking at #COVID19 through a purely political lens, you won't understand.

“Peter Dutton’s proposed control of the school curriculum is chilling, when we see what is happening in the US with book banning and the destruction of teacher’s professional autonomy.” - Correna Haythorpe, AEU Federal President #auspol

People: Why’s everyone sick?

Scientists: Multiple studies show Covid damages the immune system, similar to HIV.

Governments: Well, we’re not bothering with simple mitigations, like clean air. We’re putting short-term profit over lives, ok?

People: Ok 👍 https://t.co/uKC6kydRLv

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

I went to the same high school as Sam Kerr. So did two of the girls who were murdered by the Claremont serial killer.

For decades, a taxi driver was the suspect.

I cannot over emphasise the impact these murders had for girls who went to my school. The fear was drillled into us.

There is just so much research out there showing what a major burden of cardiovascular, neurocognitive and other disease COVID is causing - but many, even in the medical profession remain unaware of this.

[Jewish Council of Australia @jewishcouncilAU]

The Jewish Council of Australia strongly condemns Donald Trump’s suggestion the United States will ‘take over’ the Gaza Strip and move Palestinian people elsewhere.

We furthermore condemn the cynical use of humanitarian language by Trump to justify his  egregious plan. This language  adds insult to injury given the mounting evidence collected by human rights organisations about Israel’s gross violations of International Humanitarian Law in its 15-months long attack on the Gaza strip. Palestinians have a right to return and a right to remain in Gaza.

Serious study in @NatureMedicine. More evidence of COVID's impact on cognition/memory/accelerated dementia, with a recurring theme - accelerated ageing of organs (kidney, heart, lungs immune system) that @zalaly & others have described. A good reason to reduce infection rates.

COVID-19 deaths in aged care are now double what they were at the peak of pandemic.

🔹During the height of the pandemic, 18 Feb 2020 to 19 May 2022 - 2,415 COVID deaths

🔹Between 27 May 2022 to 16 Jan 2025, that number surged to 4,778 deaths

’Unacceptable’: Doctors raise alarm as COVID runs rampant in Aussie aged care facilities.

"The COVID death rate of our elderly in residential care is double that of the pandemic peak. Experts are blaming poor vaccination rates."

‘Peter Dutton says cultural diversity jobs in the public service do nothing to help Australians, as he pledges to cut the sector if he forms govt.’

Dear god he is shamelessly aping the odious Trump! Wake up fellow Australians!
