Yes Allan but, what do you expect? They were told by "TV" and they want to be safe. They're deeply distrustful of every other source.

They don't have other sources. On too of that most aged people

don't have mental acuity to discern what's what.

And lock ups for climate and who knows what comes next top down pieced out by angle and bureaucracy as an Australian Stasi state is slow created. Wow. I have never have been been beyond Kauai in the Hawaiian islands which I have visited twice long ago and I tend in my Dystopian thought sketches to vision a police state like Oahu. Extending this to Australia and New Zealand as part of the "3" Eyes on China .....

Australia now has a different Federal Government in power and from a different party. The State leaders who sanctioned the vaccines in their States are still quite popular. The previous PM and his party lost in the election and ex PM kinda slunk away and is now rarely spoken of.

This has been observed by all politicians so it is doubtful that we will go back to the restrictions, even if things decline.

Novak, when he was here for the Australian Open Tennis, received a good reception from the public. As you may remember, he was kicked out by the previous PM and many people supported that. Mainly, because of the way it was sold to them.

The new South Australian Labor government has declared a ‘climate emergency’. https://www.spectator.com.au/2022/06/sas-climate-emergency-prepare-for-carbon-footprint-tracking/

Climate lockdowns, surveillance of your ‘carbon footprint’, and restrictions on how much fuel and meat you consume might sound like a conspiracy theories now, but the stage is being set for them to appear in the near future.

As historian Dr Stephen Chavura noted in response to Labor’s motion, ‘Emergency is the language that you use when democracy is no longer working for you.’
