Prime Minister Scott Morrison has today praised the nation’s health response to Victoria’s devastating second wave of infections – stating the most was being done to fight the pandemic. Mr Morrison announced more than 400 aged care residents had been relocated, largely with the assistance of the Aged Care Response Centre, to hospitals for treatment. He said 71 aged care facilities were now classified as “COVID-free” with bolstered infection control following screening by health officials.
More than 1700 ADF personnel have been deployed in Victoria to date supporting local officials with the health response including testing, police checkpoints and door knocking. “There'll be more. This will continue. New things will be added … I fear that we will still see things that will occur that we will find absolutely unacceptable, and they are unacceptable,” the prime minister said. “There'll be no lack of commitment or effort.
ScottMorrisonMP Pandemic yet less for this July than last July in Vic
ScottMorrisonMP except REAL trials with hydroxychloroquine, zinc and azithromycin
ScottMorrisonMP hydroxychloroquine is a both a cure and preventative (vaccine) in and of itself. You can buy quinine powder for $50 / kg off ebay. Take it with Zinc. Theres your cure.
BeverleyMaxwe15 ScottMorrisonMP Bullshit!
ScottMorrisonMP Bull Shit.
ScottMorrisonMP How can he say that the most was being done while not allowing the use of HCQ?
ScottMorrisonMP If they acted as swiftly as NZ just did they wouldn’t be in this mess!
ScottMorrisonMP This could easily end if patient’s were treated with HCQ 2x200g per day, Azith 1x500g per day & Zinc 1x50g per day for 5 days. Any Govt not allowing the administration of HCQ at early onset is criminal.
ScottMorrisonMP Dear god you guys sound like a Harley Wankinson motorbike lol... 'w,w,w,WAaank... wank, wank, wank, wwaaAAAAANK... wwaaaaAAAAAAANK... waaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAANK... waaaank, wank, wank, wank, waaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAANK...'
ScottMorrisonMP If only there was some sort of political representative ultimately responsible for aged care facilities who could comment on the disastrous failings and needless deaths in these institutions? If only.
ScottMorrisonMP Every day I am losing respect for our government, federal and state. They are making political decisions for their own gain and starving the people of Australia from getting on with their lives. They are using Covid as a power tool. Whathappenedtomycountry?
ScottMorrisonMP The bs continues
ScottMorrisonMP

'An unreal feeling': Teddy Sheean's nephew welcomes uncle's Victoria Cross award | Sky News AustraliaGarry Ivory, nephew of Australian war hero Edward Sheean, says after years of campaigning it was “an unreal feeling” to celebrate the public recognition of his uncle’s sacrifice. \n\nGovernor-General David Hurley has announced Her Majesty the Queen has approved the posthumous awarding of the Victoria Cross to Teddy Sheean, after almost 78 years.\n\nHe will now be the 111st recipient in the Australian role of honour of the Victoria Cross.\n\nThe Tasmanian veteran saved the lives of some of his shipmates in 1942 after ignoring orders to abandon an Australian minesweeper which had come under heavy Japanese fire. \n\nThe 18-year-old was able to bring down one plane and damage two more before dying strapped to his weapon.\n\nMr Ivory told Sky News he began campaigning on his uncles behalf after reading ‘HMAS Armidale: The Ship that Had to Die’ by author Frank Walker.\n\nAs he read through the story of Teddy Sheean, Mr Ivory said he had been struck with the thought “this young man should get a VC”.\n\n“I started knocking on doors the very next day'.\n\n'After all these years to see it come to fruition is unbelievable,' he said.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia Congrats Teddy Congratulations.

'Most unfortunate' there is no recall provision in Victoria | Sky News AustraliaConstitutional Monarchist Professor David Flint has spoken about mechanisms in which governments can be removed from power outside the conventional norms. \n\nProfessor Flint told Sky News host Alan Jones it is 'most unfortunate' there is no recall provision in Victoria. \n\nMr Jones said a recall provision 'is quite simple'. \n\n'A recall provision can be exercised so that an unpopular government can be terminated,' Mr Jones said. \n\n'It is basically a citizens-initiated election.'. \n\nProfessor Flint said 'the only check in Victoria is really a vote of no confidence in the Lower House'. \n\n'And that would require a split in the Labor Party, the last time that happened was in 1955'. \n\n\n What a shame Scott Morrison could be removed Constitutional Monarchist Professor David Flint has spoken about opening up Australia to copy the United States: Dan is a communist and colonialist. Tibet is not China. East Turkistan is not China. Inner Mongolia is not China. Freedom for Hong Kong. Taiwan is not China. The East China Sea is not a Chinese territory. Dan can never say these words.

Victoria Premier insists ADF help wasn't offered | Sky News AustraliaPremier Daniel Andrews continues to insist his government did not receive any offer of ADF support by the federal government to assist with hotel quarantine, contradicting claims from the federal Defence Minister.\n\nLinda Reynolds said ADF officials asked whether Victorian authorities required assistance with its mandatory quarantine system on 'multiple occasions' but no request for support was subsequently received from Victoria at the time.\n\nState Emergency Management Commissioner Andrew Crisp backed the Premier's claim in a statement that said he 'did not seek nor did representatives of the ADF offer assistance as part of the quarantine program'.\n\nAt least 100 defence force personnel were on standby to assist Victoria with its hotel quarantine program but were not deployed, a parliamentary inquiry heard.\n\nMore details revealed the decision to hire private security guards did not come from Jobs Minister Martin Pakula's office, who claimed his department acted in a concierge-type role. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n DanielAndrewsMP INRI CRISTO O ÚLTIMO !!

The ‘politicking around the pandemic’ in Victoria is pathetic | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says the way half the media is running a “protection racket” for Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is typical but pointless.\n\n“The whole country knows he stuffed up hotel quarantine and that his entire management of the crisis has been confused and ideological,” Mr Kenny said.\n\nThe latest development in Mr Andrews’ “obfuscation” came when on Tuesday he claimed there was no offer for ADF support made by the federal government.\n\n“The clincher is from Andrews himself, way back in March when the quarantine move was announced after a National Cabinet meeting,” Mr Kenny said.\n\nIn March, when announcing the hotel quarantine arrangements for the state, the premier said “'It has also been agreed that the Australian Defence Force will be engaged to support the implementation of these arrangements”.\n\nMr Kenny said those comments were “game, set, and match” for the premier.\n\n“You can’t announce that in March and then say in August that the ADF offered nothing.\n\n“The politicking around the pandemic is pathetic.”\n\nImage: Getty DanielAndrewsMP Bugger off Murdoch DanielAndrewsMP I guess their first priority is objective reporting rather than bringing down a Labor government. DanielAndrewsMP “Politicking is pointless” Kenny in the negative self awareness zone again
