AMA President Omar Khorshid says Australia needs to re-examine its COVID-19 strategy and develop a unified approach to handling the pandemic across the country.

He told Sky News while the country was doing very well in terms of case numbers, the community, particularly in Victoria, was becoming fatigued with restrictions and lockdowns. “People are asking ‘when can we go back to normal?’” Mr Khorshid said.

“We need to look at the map and see what we’re actually aiming for here because going back to normal would require the whole world to be a very different place to what it is now. “So what we should be aiming for is going back to a new type of normal which does involve a level of restrictions, a level of border controls and that needs to be agreed to at a national level. “We’re not seeing that national cooperation just at the moment, we’re seeing too much bickering.

ama_media Oh the irony of this being posted by Sky News MurdochRoyalCommission

If we had a PM that could bring us together it would help. Instead, we have a shouty man who like to divide the states by what political party is in that state. Tasmania and SA doing the same things as ALP states. He never mentions them. He attacks ALP states with vigor. Bias.

Politicians don't do risk management! WA needs to get on board and put contact tracing,social distancing etc in place for now & the future.They can't stay closed forever and expect to have continued Fed Gov help.We must act as one nation not separately.They are behind the 8 ball.

Yes to a national approach. At some point we will have borders open & we need to put systems in place for whenever it happens. If only premiers could agree on things? Everyone has different aims.

Your POLITICIANS were MISLED. No more MASKS required No more LOCK DOWNS. It was never necessary.The whole World is now becoming aware that the 'COVID 19 PANDEMIC' was a 'SCAM' It has a 99.9% recovery rate. It is No more VIRULENT than the FLU. Even the W.H.O. Has done a BACK FLIP.

Perhaps they should have been calling for this before now

DanielAndrewsMP are you listening? Or you pretend to know more than any other who disagree with you.

Bring Jacinda over.

Agree. Now thing are relatively under control, now is a good time.

Another biased report

Young Australian's beginning HSC exams, 'treated appallingly by COVID alarmism' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Alan Jones says young Australians have been treated appallingly by coronavirus alarmism and hysteria and he wonders if politicians ever think of the “dreadful hand” they’ve dealt to young Australians “transitioning to the world beyond”.\n\nHis comments come as final high school exams are set to begin for students around Australia.\n\n“I wonder do politicians ever think of the dreadful hand they have dealt to these young Australians for whom this is not just a final year of their school life, but a transition to the world beyond school,” he said. \n\n“It can be a difficult and uninviting world, but to straddle all of this, a few things are worth remembering. \n\n“Firstly, your final year exams aren't the end of the world. \n\n“You may not succeed, but the triumph really is knowing that you gave it all you had.\n\n“That is all you can do in the weeks ahead: Get some sleep, eat well. \n\n“If you have some anxieties about something talk to your teacher, your parents or your mates. Don't bottle it up, but also don't look for excuses. \n\n“Remember, the only thing you get without hard work is failure. It is good to learn that lesson early.\n\n“My final word of advice is very simple. Just do you best. \n\n“Good luck to all of you. Mums and Dads and Students.”\n Very concerned about school Boys, not so much the girls!! Yeah wear the masks, faucis work below.

Victoria continues positive COVID trend recording one death, four cases | Sky News AustraliaVictoria has recorded four new cases and one death overnight with the state seeing six consecutive days of single-digit increases.\n\nThe state hasn’t seen a triple digit increase since early September.\n\nThe 14-day rolling average has fallen to 7.2 for metropolitan Melbourne while the regional average has remained relatively stable at 0.5. \n More cases than a warehouse, anyone actually sick and receiving treatment, where is FOIA? Absolutely ridiculous. Victoria is without a doubt anti-capitalist! And it shows by all the lives they've saved while shutting down businesses. As a true capitalist, I find this horrendous. You should never put human lives before money and business! That's clearly socialism! 4 cases of people not sick taking a test that ensures it comes back positive for their immune system naturally destroying ANY random corona virus.....1 death of someone from something other than covid19...a virus that makes nobody sick anymore

COVID side effect: 'IQ's of political leaders have been diminished' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says a side effect of COVID is the diminishing IQ of many of Australia’s political leaders as he discusses the “over the top” process he was made to go through while travelling from Sydney to Adelaide. \n\nMr Kenny said he and his family last week flew to Adelaide to see his extended family, but before they flew, they had to put all their details onto a Cross Border Traveller Application.\n\n“And when we got to Adelaide, there was a quarantine containment area set up, with police and dozens of public servants, waiting to grill us all, double check our identities and question us,” he said. \n\n“This is extraordinary. More onerous, more over the top than you get flying into some other countries.”\n\n'But what really did my head in was one question they demanded we answer.\n\n'Why are you coming to South Australia?'\n\n“Really? You need a reason to cross a state border in Australia these days?\n\n“What possible business is it of theirs to wonder why we were coming to town, and what possible difference could it make, unless we said we were secretly infected with COVID-19 and planned to spread it as widely as we could.\n\n“I reckon coronavirus has some serious side-effects, and one of them is to diminish the IQs of many of our political leaders.”\n Is he hoping this will mean more will watch his show? 🤔 Surely a diminishing IQ will mean their ratings will go up? Join the Sky audience and continue the inevitable slide down the curve. I've squeezed out turds smarter than Chris Kenny.

WA Premier says he should have told public two Australians disembarked COVID-hit shipWA Premier Mark McGowan says he 'probably should have' let the media know two Australians had disembarked from the Al Messilah livestock carrier at Fremantle before a COVID-19 outbreak was detected on board. We are now seeing that 'POLITICAL PARTIES' don't work anymore. ( Lies, Corruption, Promises,Backdoor Deals. It goes on forever ) We need a 'NEW SYSTEM' where all Australians can decide from all Australians, the person who they most want to lead their country once every 6 years A POLITICAL SYSTEM where the LEADER is selected by ALL of the PEOPLE and who governs for 6 years does not come with the GARBAGE that POLITICAL PARTIES have. No reason to maintain Power,Jobs for the Boys,Ministers,Members of Parliament,Etc.all goes away.PROPER GOVERNMENT ENSUES. So now the WA Premier has a memory issue!!
