Australia’s chief medical officer says he is in agreement with the UN, which warned there is no scientific basis for awarding an “immunity passport” to people who have recovered from COVID-19

Australia’s chief medical officer says he is in agreement with the United Nations, which warned there is no scientific basis for awarding an “immunity passport” to people who have recovered from COVID-19. The UN health agency overnight warned there isn’t enough data to prove those who have recovered from the novel coronavirus have life-long immunity to the disease.

Chile is considering issuing workers with an immunity certificate proving they have recovered from the virus, which would permit them to work outside their home. Germany and Italy have reportedly also been considering using immunity passports. Chief Medical Officer Professor Brendan Murphy said it is “too early” to issue documentation clearing people of the disease.

UN The moment anybody says they are in agreement with the UN all credibility is lost

UN False negatives prevent this apprpach

UN 'agreement with the UN'....unbelievable!

UN Sounds like a pretext for giving everyone the vaccine regardless, and punishing those who don't with unemployment.

UN no guarantee of herd immunity either

UN Let's tell that to Dutton, Prince Charles and Boris Johnson! Stay at home boys, you are not immune.

UN What ‘Dickhead’ came up with this?

UN Only when you receive the Gatesian 'mark of the beast', will you be deemed a citizen worthy of participating in this new societal-order. Watch the witless sheep flock willingly, to have their children pumped full of poison. 1984HasArrived ID2020 ForcedVaccination

Journalists ‘are going nuts’ over Trump’s recent COVID-19 comments | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says US President Donald Trump’s latest COVID-19 update is bizarre, very interesting and one which is certainly “worth a look”.\n\nPresident Trump has suggested coronavirus patients be injected with disinfectant as a way to fight the virus.\n\nSpeaking from the White House podium, Mr Trump said “I see that disinfectant knocks it out in a minute, one minute”.\n\n“Is there a way that we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? As you see it gets in the lungs and does a tremendous number,” he said.\n\n“It would be interesting to check that. It sounds interesting to me.”\n\n“The President was actually reflecting on advice from medical experts who say the virus is very susceptible to heat, light and disinfectant, and he encouraged this continuing medical research on new treatments,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“Which is all fair enough”. \n\n“As usual journalists have gone nuts over this, pretending they had no idea of the context”. \n\n“But he'd save himself a lot of trouble, I guess, if he left the medical commentary to the experts”. \n\nImage: AP \n\n realDonaldTrump Chris mate... You don't have to be on all the time realDonaldTrump Don't think orange man told anyone to shoot up bleach... realDonaldTrump If, as you suggest Mr Kenny, commentary is saved for experts, you and the rest of your Sky after dark mates would be out of a job in a flash. I wholeheartedly endorse your suggestion. Experts only please.

Family Court faces almost 40 per cent more urgent applications due to COVID-19Australia's family courts respond to a surge in urgent applications, driven by disruptions due to COVID-19. How long is this stupidity going to continue before the ignorant government realises it's really causing more harm than good to people by enforcing rubbish rules and deliberately causing economic terrorism under false pretenses of a slightly virulent common cold PLANdemic!

Scientists dispel theory COVID-19 escaped from labThere is overwhelming evidence that the virus that causes COVID-19 jumped from animals to humans, rather than escaping from a laboratory, virus experts say. That nasty open air wet market will always create something far more nasty than a lab anyways. Think of the permutations that can occur in that disgusting place. Well the scientists would say that, wouldn’t they? Whether ChinaVirus is an escapee of the Wuhan Lab or a jumper from the bats, still one thing is true, it originated from Wuhan! From the market or laboratory, the point of origin is still China! They must be doing a lot of things wrongly that the virus originated there!
