These threads... not just here... dont go anywhere.
You have one guy saying cronavirus is fake news, then another so called expert working for the lab making the vaccine. A third one tells us how its actually the 5g towers.
In the other thread that i know got canned last week, we had a guy being totally frank and saying its ok if older Australians die, just as long as he is allowed to live his life in full.
In other forums then this conversation degenerates to political ideology, and that is never a good conversation in any shape.
Have i missed something?
Larry wrote:The term Herd immunity keeps getting bandied around quite a bit. Its something that I think is a bit out there in reality. It is not even known if a person has any immunity and if so for how long after contacting the virus. To obtain this immunity you have to become infected with the virus. Thats something I would rather not have occur thank you very much.
The other take on the Herd immunity is that so many people become infected and therefore immune that the virus runs out of new hosts readily available to infect and therefore declines as it cannot continue to breed. Given it is so highly contagious will that ever be achieved. I think only time would ever tell with regards to that. Other viruses that have been so called extinct for decades due to Vaccines being developed somehow seem to find some hole in the wall to survive until some unsuspecting punter comes by one day.

Not happy with the lockdown after 6 months? Are you letting the MPs know that?

what you should have said OB is
"It expands the ability of the Government to make rules without [tabling] them in Parliament, without actually passing legislation."
nobody has said anything except that Denial should not be given that power especially after his abhorrent performance so far
it should go to parliament to be decided
how about we start with getting Dandemic to answer some questions first
get past your one eyed bias OB and open your eyes

I would have said same if LNP was in power. Parliament is too slow a system in the current situation. Decisions need to made quickly.
marksman wrote:OB,
Denial has not been very forthcoming with explaining what he is up to with anything
his usual is "sorry l dont have an answer for that at this time" then when asked at a later date again his answer is "l have already answered that question"
why would anyone give him more power, how slow do you call not answering questions
words of wisdom from Karl Stefanovic to scomo about the corrupted Dandemic
"Great leaders own their mistakes…otherwise how do we know they're not going to make them again."
l like Karl
