AFR readers unimpressed with handling of omicron surge

“The federal government has been shown to be unprepared at every turn in the pandemic since February 2020, ultimately responding with too little, too late. There is a leadership void at the Federal level,” one reader wrote.poll surveys 649 readers about issues affecting the economy and society every fortnight.

Readers were split when asked if the state and federal governments had struck the right balance between continuing to open up the economy and countering the health risks posed by a surge in COVID-19 infections. “It’s clear that a much more cautious approach over the Christmas and NY period was warranted,” one reader wrote. “Opening up so quickly was wrong and also very disrespectful of the medical community and all the other people put in harm’s way.”

Every world leader is under pressure right now. Everyone expects our leaders to have all the answers when it comes to Covid but there are no rules with Covid, every day is something new.

Only half. I though AFR readers had brains.

Well he and Hunt gave Pfizer the cold shoulder causing The longest lockdowns in the world. Yes they should just leave for that stuff up alone.

the public is going feral to that clown Bungles after bungles n never said sorry

And that’s as good as it gets for Morrison given AFR readership. Can recover from disgust.

Unimpressed was few years back when he lied about his trip to Lalaland... Scathingly abysmally deplorable is right about fucking now. 🤬😡🤬
