Professor Nancy Baxter on ABC radio PM program not mincing words. This is rationing, she says, about eleventy times. We are rationing PCR tests. Rationing due to lack of sufficient tests is what is going on here, she says, over and over again.
this was the only serious takeaway from Morrison’s press conference today. CMO Paul Kelly let slip that there is a PCR test shortage. He was supposed to be lending faux credibility to the PM and his national cabinet announcement but PCR test shortage was the actual info conveyed.
been queuing up in Sydney since Boxing Day? Had holiday plans? Every test clinic shut? Tried to take personal responsibility, for yourself and those around you? Here, have a health minister sneering at you wanting a “free” test when he and his mates failed to secure PCR supply.
regular reminder that one thing Sydney Liberals will never ever do is allocate public spending to the public good. They will sooner give billions to corporate donors before spending our cash on essential services. Even outsourced essential health services during a pandemic.
This. Is. Who. They. Are. Not one public dollar may ever be directly spent on the public good. Never. Every public dollar must be channeled through profit seeking mates. Every dollar, every time. Liberal Party ideology. This is who they are.
