It is well outside the expertise of any medical or scientific expert to indirectly or even remotely propose public policy suggestions concerning matters of law. The Executive branch of Government is bestowed their constitutional obligation to administer the law appropriately and use delegated legislative powers to develop laws necessary to deal with new issues unbeknownst to the law. Amidst the second Covid-19 outbreak in NSW, Premier Gladys Berejiklian has constantly stressed that lockdown measures are based on advice from health experts. The Premier should consider health expert advice, I am by no means insinuating otherwise. However, it is negligent on the part of the Premier to enforce public policy based primarily on health advice without showing any regard towards the economy, employment etc. It's evidently clear based on the comparison between the severity of Covid-19 and detriments caused by lockdown orders, the measures undertaken by the NSW government in handling the pandemic reflect political incompetence void of political reasoning and logic.
Unless the health experts are withholding alarming information regarding Covid-19, the following information as provided on the
health.gov.au website make up the substance underpinning health expert advice with respect to the risk severity of the virus:
You are at high risk of severe illness from COVID-19 if you:
You are at moderate risk of severe illness from COVID-19 if you have:
The commonality between the above health concerns in those at most risk is that they indicate signs of a weakened immune system. Caring for those at risk of severe illness from Covid-19 includes safeguarding them from any other virus for any sickness may cause severe discomfort or God-forbid challenge their immune system. The emergence of Covid-19 does indeed call for additional measures to protect those at risk, and or, measures to help support caretakers protect those at risk. Health expert advice concerning Covid-19 should be acted upon by the NSW State Government by implementing measures to protect those at most severe risk. Appropriate measures, for example, include mandatory testing for those who wish to get in close contact with people identified to be at most risk. Should one within their close proximity test positive, then appropriately they should stay home as one would ordinarily do when sick. In short, those at risk should be given every chance to recover and be safeguarded from all other exacerbating illnesses, not just Covid-19.
There is no empirical evidence supporting the effectiveness of lockdown orders in protecting people at most risk. In fact, there is no need for an empirical study, the hypothesis of such a study would sound utterly ridiculous. What variables would be subjected to in the study? How distorted would a real-life hypothetical scenario need to be in order for such a study to be applicable? Medical or science experts have absolutely no role in dictating public policy other than to provide information or advice strictly pertaining to their field of study. Moreover, NSW Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant is overstepping her professional boundary by using media coverage to over-exaggerate the potential severity of Covid-19 on public health. Dr Chant is a shill. In the video below, an excerpt from the ‘26 June 2021 NSW Covid-19 Update Conference’ shows Dr Chant say that “the situation has really evolved rapidly in the last 24 hours, and as I’d indicated it's because we’ve found an unrecognised strand of infection”.
The first Covid-19 Delta variant was detected in December 2020. The structure and properties of the virus found in NSW positive tests must’ve surely aligned with the Delta variant detected around the world in the first half of 2021. I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt by assuming she meant a variant by saying strand. A virus strand differs from the parent virus in physical structure. There is a clear distinction to be made between a variant and strand. A “Health Expert” would be expected to discern the difference between the two. Whether it's a variant or strand doesn’t matter, if political correspondence aligns with the narrative people will believe it and ultimately further underlying agendas.
In relation to the legal profession, I am deeply disappointed in all agents of the law including politicians, judges, barristers, lawyers and police officers for failing to recognise and condemn the unfounded, unjustifiable approach taken by the NSW Government in dealing with the virus. The lies and fear mongering are blatantly obvious and no legal agent has batted an eye over it. The whole narrative is poisoning our society but allegiance to their superiors is paramount, it's pathetic. In the 17th century, English Attorney General and Lord Chancellor Francis Bacon developed and proposed the idea of separating government and natural philosophy (science) from religion for religion dictated government and natural philosophy in the preceding Middle Ages. How many legal agents have recognised that Gladys’s dependence on science in creating public policy contradicts the foundational pillars of modern-day philosophy and intellect?
Gladys pretentiously pleads with the people of Greater Sydney to comply with lockdown orders to lower the risk of catching the virus and passing it on to their loved ones, emphasising on the feeling of guilt and regret one would feel should that happen. Hypothetically, if a person passes the virus to a loved one who is not one who is most at risk (more than likely not at risk), would likely to suffer symptoms of Covid-19 which according to health.gov.au include:
"Symptoms of COVID-19 can range from mild illness to pneumonia. Some people will recover easily, and others may get very sick very quickly. People with coronavirus may experience symptoms such as:
Other symptoms can include runny nose, acute blocked nose (congestion), headache, muscle or joint pains, nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, loss of sense of smell, altered sense of taste, loss of appetite and fatigue."
At some point, more than likely one has caught a sickness from a family member, a friend or work colleague causing the symptoms above as a result. Does an ill person intend to make those around them sick, deserving of feeling guilty? Contagious illness transmission is not a new phenomena unknown to humans. Contagious transmissions will continue to occur until the end of time. The only person who should feel guilt and shame over Covid-19 is Gladys Berejiklian. The Premier has the nerve to emotionally manipulate the public on the back of petty statistics which only indicate how many people MAY suffer from symptoms of Covid-19 mentioned above. People need to understand this: politicians use fear and drama to grab the public’s attention and maintain the trend of fear and drama for as long they want your attention. With your attention, you are under the behest of their control. I delve more into Edward Bernays and his Public Relations strategies here.
Hadn’t it been for the fear mongering, not a single person would be complying with lockdown orders let alone be aware of their enforcement. If the subject matter were to be fiscal or foreign policy, the public is left to be oblivious. Fiscal policy is how the government collects tax revenue and what they spend it on. Fiscal policy isn’t exciting as watching Gladys speak about how Covid-19 is an enemy of humanity and how it’s necessary to work together in obeying the rules in order to overcome the pandemic triumphantly.
Vaccines will not be the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, the vaccines will not be able to provide immunity from freshly mutated Covid-19 variants. A successful vaccination scheme will NOT restore the normalcy we were accustom to prior to the start of the pandemic. Co-founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab stated that "Nothing will ever return to the “broken” sense of normalcy that prevailed prior to the crisis because the coronavirus pandemic marks a fundamental inflection point in our global trajectory".
This is it. Alpha, Beta, Delta and Gamma variants will eventually mutate and produce a virus that renders the vaccine pointless. The last glimmer of hope will be made out to seem High Tech. Lockdown will be a normal facet of life, technology will be integrated into human life to fill all voids made empty by lockdowns.
The arrogant who ridicule so-called ‘anti-vaxxers’ or ‘conspiracy theorists’ are as if not more pathetic than the anti-vaxxers or conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists get more of my sympathy because of their hunch that something is wrong, but too ignorant to recognise that they’re as controlled as those who slave away for the system. Whatever happens from here onwards is not a coincidence, it's all calculated. The slaves and dissidents will destroy each other with their short sightedness, arrogance and ignorance. Once the narrative has achieved its means, say hello to the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Just imagine no longer being allowed to be next to your parents, sons, daughters, cousins, uncles, aunties, nephews, nieces and friends. Imagine no longer being allowed to gather round them, hug and embrace them, sit down, talk and laugh together with them. What’s life without that? At this very moment wouldn’t you take the chance of getting a cold if it meant not being in lockdown? Well, get used to it, you don’t get any more chances. Our connection with God was channelled through his creation, His earth and each other. We’ve lost connection with God, we took His blessings for granted. We are deserving of soulless robots for company and lab-grown meat and crops for food.
