Massive Unrest as Australia Adopts China's
Authoritarian 'COVID-Zero' Approach

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 8/21/2021 5:00:29 PM

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the resulting illness, COVID-19, has caused mass hysteria on a global scale. Perhaps no response is as shocking as what we see in Australia. The country is included in the group of western democracies globally and among the Five Eyes intelligence community members. Yet, the nation’s response to the pandemic can only be described as authoritarian. A COVID-19 Delta outbreak emerged in Australia in June. The country adopted a “Covid-Zero” strategy early in the pandemic. The government has repeatedly imposed draconian measures, rigorous testing, and closed international borders to eradicate the virus.

They will never "eradicate" this virus. They're nuts. If they EVER permit travel to the continent, the virus WILL get there. The current vaccines are crap, dangerous in themselves with indication that they may cause serious long term health problems. They don't prevent infection, don't stop spreading or hospitalizations. Some docs think that The Shot causes Antibody Dependent Enhancement which makes people even sicker. It is beginning to look like the ChiCom virus is going to be an permanent fixture, like all the other chronic diseases. Perhaps one day there will be a safe and effective vaccine, but what we have now sure isn't it.

Australia's efforts have been remarkably effective, reporting only 978 deaths due to COVID through yesterday, compared with 627,843 deaths in the US. New Zealand has done even better, with only 26 deaths.

I see our site troll has weighed in endorsing Australia's martial law tactics. Australia's population is 25 million. The U.S. is 309 million. Further, Australia's population density (one of the elements of virus spread) is 3.33 people per square kilometer. By comparison, the U.S. population density is 33.86 people per square kilometer. The death rate for Australia is 0.004%, the death rate for the U.S. is 0.2%. Granted, Australia has a lower death rate, but it also has a much lower population density which reduces the opportunities for a virus to spread. I won't bother with NZ, as I believe I've made my point.

But only 50% of Australia has been vaccinated with one clot shot, Karen. So are you saying that the vaccine isn't really that important? 972 deaths out of 25.7 million people is a rounding error. Maybe COVID isn't all that. Or, the Aussies are simply grossly underreporting for whatever reason. Meanwhile, the USA, which is much more vaccinated, has a much higher death rate. Things that make you go hmmmmm.

@#7 - Nobody knows how many in the US succumbed to the Chinese Virus. US numbers are skewed for political/monetary purposes. Many in US hospitals who died last year were said to have died from the Chinese Virus when in fact they died from other causes.

They are keeping people inside - where the virus spreads. They are not allowing people to go outside for more than an hour a day. People are being denied sunshine, fresh air, and exercise. It makes no sense - it is tyranny - soft, choking suffocating tyranny. If one looks at the meta data - lockdowns do nothing. Compare Italy, which locked down drastically and Sweden - which did not - they both follow a similar curve. Generally what lowers mortality is good underlying health. Factors increasing the chances of dying from the virus - obesity, anxiety disorders, lower Vitamin D levels (for a whole year before they got sick) and other chronic pre-existing diseases.

Minor correction to #6. First, it is an RNA virus, an mRNA vaccine. The only virus ever "eradicated " is smallpox, and that's questionable, because many labs have samples, plus the genetic code is known, it can be recreated, unfortunately. Plus it's primarily because there is no animal reservoir for smallpox. Even genetically stable DNA viruses can't be eliminated if there is an animal reservoir, as there is for essentially all viruses. But we've never been able to make a useful vaccine to ANY coronavirus.

The Biden administration is planning a dramatic ramp-up of its airlift from Kabul by making preparations to compel major U.S. airlines to help with the transportation of tens of thousands of evacuees from Afghanistan, while expanding the number of U.S. military bases that could house Afghans. The White House is expected to consider activating the Civil Reserve Air Fleet, or CRAF, created in 1952 in the wake of the post-World War II Berlin Airlift, to provide nearly 20 commercial jets from up to five airlines to augment U.S. military efforts to transport Afghan evacuees from bases in the region, according to U.S. officials.

Remember when Joe Biden allegedly asked Vladimir Putin and the Chinese not to conduct cyber attacks against us, but then he didn’t sanction China and he gave Putin a list of the targets that were important to us? How’d that work out? Well, the cyberattacks have continued. Great job, Joe! Now, we’re hearing about a serious breach, a new attack that hit the State Department. It’s not clear who is behind it yet.

A week ago tomorrow, Kabul fell and the Taliban gained effective control of Afghanistan. Joe Biden and his national security team have taken that week to offer very little in the way of facts, and evidently, even less in the way of security for Americans or U.S. allies stranded there. A British reporter on the ground in Kabul reports that the things he and “hardened combat soldiers” are seeing are the worst things any of them have ever seen. He also says it’s all getting worse. As if the chaos in Afghanistan isn’t bad enough, the Biden administration is evidently in a state of chaos itself.

The French government’s readout of the conversation was released on Friday, a day after the call took place, and indicates that Macron emphasised ensuring the safe evacuation of Afghan citizens who assisted American and European troops over the past 20 years at great risk to themselves and their families. According to the readout, Macron described the mission to evacuate allies as a “moral responsibility”

Thirty-seven states show the president with a 50 percent or higher disapproval rate. This is compared to only 12 states that show the president with a higher approval rating. Meanwhile, only one state, Colorado, polled at an even tie with 46 percent. The seven-month rolling average of the president’s job approval is now at 50 percent disapproval compared to only 43 percent approval, with seven people expressing no opinion. Broken down by age groups; 18-34, 35-49, 50-64, and 65 plus, all have a negative opinion of Biden as well.

But Joe Biden did actually take a few questions. Unfortunately, his responses were just as bad as his remarks.

But there was one exchange that really had people asking questions.
