Good point, by the idiotic logic provided a couple posts ago.
In all my years I have yet to have a politician tell me I have to buy something.
If you're married did you buy a license ?
Did I have to get married?
I see what you did there.
I agree, but I don’t think Australia is a good example at the moment, cause it’s summer. We had barely any case during the summer too.
OK. Did you know that most States and territories in Australia were Covid transmission free in winter? My Sate is the closet to Antarctica, so the coldest state and we have been covid transmission free for majority of the year due to a 3 week lock down back in March. Lock downs work.
No, but I was all over NSW last summer and kept up with the situation and friends there since. Although I think Australians themselves handle it much better, they did have their biggest wave last winter (our summer), just as countries on the northern hemisphere have now.
that wave u posted was mainly Victoria. You can do the math on population differences..... allot less than a thousand a day and back down to Zero all in bout 5 to 6 weeks after a lock down. The infection came from Hotel Quarantine of international arrivals. The State was Covid transmission free before the jump out.
Id like to give you shit, but it is very impressive how well your country has performed during this pandemic.
So far. But there is still 12 months to go. You would think there will be a 3rd wave sooner or later.

Too many snowflakes here in North America.After an uncertain start, Australia ultimately made the right choices. Its leaders, yes, but also its people. The pandemic was a severe test of leadership, and of nation-state capability, but also of social cohesion and public culture. The whole of the people had to accept some personal inconvenience for the common good. In successful countries they did; in failed ones they did not.
Pandemic exposes global fault lines - and how Australia rose above them
In a world still shattered by the pandemic, Australia never did get to the predicted 150,000 dead. Nor have we reached 1000. In our success there are lessons about how nations should be run.www.theage.com.au
The masks are for when you can't maintain a 6 foot distance and vice versa. The lock down is to hopefully slow the spread so HealthCare systems aren't overwhelmed. Why the fuck would you wanna risk it anyways. Common sense tells me id rather be safe than sorry. Im believing you don't have common sense.... whispering in your ear.
That quote is absolutely true, but not in this case. How patriotic are you if you're not willing to sacrifice for the common good? Again, real or not, why risk it?
