Two days ago, the Morrison government made an unusual addition to the list of people exempt from Australia’s travel ban on temporary visa holders: covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/critical-skill…

It's an odd addition, since this is probably the only professional group that, if their claims are true, gets no additional advantage from travel. If, for example, they wanted to provide me with critical skills in a religious field, they could just pray for me to acquire them. /3
(And they have.) It occurs to me that a government so focused on their own personal benefit might conceivably have added this group because they planned to hold their own "religious" convention. Of Hillsong perhaps. <end>
And it has just been pointed out to me that allied health workers, other than nurses, are still banned. Presumably the person who decided to add Hillsong attendees to the list would rather we met God sooner rather than later.
