Welcome to Sydney lockdown day 18 .... we are all now just poasting through the virus now afflicting this emerald city

#COVID19nsw #Sydneylockdown

Greater Sydney (~6m) is dead at the moment. The CBD is empty. Unless you want some sort of military regime for S-W Sydney then there is not much else we can do except risk manage this …. Please do not give ABC boomers ideas

If you live in/ivo Sydney, you are aware of how many people are recent arrivals & have limited grasps of English. Many come from places you, too, would want to escape. Putting troops on the streets to police them (as seems to be hinted at) is lunacy

The media has a huge amount to repent for in continually platforming near hysterical “public health experts” whose desire for their 15 minutes of grift to never end has mainstreamed the demonising of Sydney’s significant migrant communities. Shameful

Australia does a few things poorly but we do many things really well - and running a harmonious, pluralistic society is one of them. Why people come/flee here. Having affluent & Covid protected liberals lecture migrant communities on how they should essentially go Anglo is awful

Very good Herald piece on the literal mosaic that is Sydney especially the south west - cannot believe this was run given the Herald demo are mostly the liberal Covid paranoids wanting “public health” mandated police regimes

NSW: 89 new local cases but could be much worse - better testing numbers

Can someone ask Dr Chant why the vaccination booking website does not simply show what clinics and venues have Pfizer and what bookings are open??? The vaccine booking website is horrifically complex

#covid19nsw #Sydneylockdown

The NSW Health website for booking vaccination assumes that everyone has a solid internet connection and a superior command of English. Surely public health and vaccine bookings should be made as clear and simple as possible? Can someone ask Dr Chant?

Will just add (as is my wont) that no one in s-w Sydney would be under the unfair spotlight that they are now if the Vaccine rollout had occurred in the bulk and at the speed that was obviously necessary for a nation our size

The residents of s-w Sydney are doing their part to get tested, here at Fairfield Showground, often waiting for hours in queues. Please show to anyone criticising the good people of s-w Sydney.
