Labor has really turned Australia into the pathetic little lapdogs of genocidal maniacs. This is horrifying news and we should be ashamed.

if you’re a white person working with people of color in any capacity and you’re not asking yourself if you’re compromising their safety/trust, treating them like servants/NPCs, or devaluing their time and talent you’re probably the big bad and you don’t even realize it. making you bad AND careless.

In the last year before Covid arrived in England, 4,059 people waited more than twelve hours to get admitted to hospital after the decision was made to admit them to hospital. During the emergency phase of the pandemic that number rose to a staggering 48,626.

Well crafted message as seen on reddit:
Today is 5 years since the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Some helpful reminders on this occasion...

We're still "during Covid"—the pandemic is not over. Millions of people continue to get infected every week, and millions are living with Long Covid, which has no treatment or cure.

Covid is not "just a cold." It's a novel vascular disease that causes long term damage to many of the body's systems in ways we're only beginning to understand.

Even if a person is lucky enough to have minimal symptoms during an acute infection, there is a risk of Long Covid, which can cause long-term or permanent disability.

You can get Covid more than once as new strains emerge. Each infection increases the chances of Long Covid.

Some acute infections are asymptomatic. You can transmit Covid to someone else without even knowing you have it. They might not be as lucky.

The best thing you can do to protect yourself and other people is to keep up to date on vaccinations and to wear a well-fitted N95 mask when outside your home and around other people.

Thanks for indulging me and stay safe!
