Berejiklian ‘leading the way’ despite ‘restriction overreaction’ by states | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says initially Australia got on top of the coronavirus pandemic but since then there has been “overreaction after overreaction” from state governments on lockdown measures. \n\n“You know I praised Scott Morrison and the premiers, the National Cabinet, for how they got on top of this pandemic early,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“But since then we've seen overreaction after overreaction, not from Canberra but from the states”. \n\nHowever, Mr Kenny did say NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian is now “starting to push harder than the other states to open up” as the coronavirus curve continues to flatten in the country.\n \nOn Friday Ms Berejiklian had said up to 50 people will be allowed inside pubs, cafes and restaurants from June after she decided to roll back far more restrictions than anticipated.\n\n“This is a lifeline, there'll be all sorts of new restrictions and social distancing, but these numbers will allow some businesses to operate commercially,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“Well done Gladys Bereijiklian, she's leading the way and the other states should all follow suit, it’s easier for them, they've got no excuses”. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia It's better to overreact then underreact!!!!! Thank goodness Chris Kenny has no influence in running this country!!!! So says Chris Kenny...not an expert. Isn’t she the same Premier who oversaw Ruby prince debacle & wants Chinese students to return next month? What coolaid you drinking to think she’s doing a good job?

Vinnies CEO Sleepout will take place in cars and backyards amid coronavirus outbreak | Sky News AustraliaThe 2020 Vinnies CEO Sleepout will take place in cars, backyards and on couches to ensure the popular fundraiser goes ahead during the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic.\n\nParticipants will join an interactive live stream event hosted by Television personality Dr Andrew Rochford.\n\nFounder of the sleepout Bernie Fehon told Sky News this year they are “unable to get together, but certainly chosen to press on with the event because people who are homeless, they don’t have a choice to put their life on hold”.\n\n“And what it is doing is giving us the opportunity to emulate what the bulk of our homeless people are doing, and that is sleeping in spots that are fairly invisible,” he said. Nobody cares about events held over video chat it’s lame Do you think Evil Eugenics Man would ever do that ? Of course NOT !! Instead he wants to De Populate & Vaccinate the world with His Poison . seems counter to the reason this thing was started in the first place. The homeless people don't get to find somewhere else to sleep. How many homeless people have been tested, and positive and died? Surely some young healthy people can sleep out whilst social distancing?

US states move to reopen despite predictions of 'death and destruction' | Sky News AustraliaFormer US Naval Intelligence Officer John Jorden says the “American public is starting to realise there is a tension between what the media is saying and the reality” of the coronavirus crisis. \n\nMr Jordan told Sky News all US states were beginning to reopen “to varying degrees” and people were “conflicted about it”. \n\nHe said the media painted the early reopening as “a disaster,', with some warning 'there’s going to be a lot of death and destruction and illness”. \n\n“On a per capita basis they are doing better both in terms of infection and in terms of hospitalisation, and in terms of deaths than are the real militant lockdown states,” he said. \n\n“Americans are coming to understand risk of illness is not equally distributed across society – it is overwhelmingly concentrated towards older folks.\n\n“So if you protect those groups the risk is fairly minimal throughout the rest of society – that’s what those states that have opened up early have done.” \n\nImage: AP Lol, wait, what, it's all bullshit? Just like here in Australia? Lying FakeNewsMediaClowns FakeNewsPandemic FakePandemic ...peddling fear and ruining lives John Jordan ... Another US FOX News conservative commentator. Also a fund raiser for Donald Trump and former failed Republican candidates. I think his version of reality is heavily flavored with his political commentary.
