Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Can't be too serious if no one will pay.

The first three did t work, but we promise you the 4th will..

Yeah, the stupid people are those who won’t pay for a 4th shot of an experimental drug.

At the end of the day we’ve moved to the part where people are free to do what they like, want more needles, go for it, don’t then you won’t be forced to. Ditto with masks and staying home.

Sorry to hear that, all the best and hope you feel better soon. My doctors won’t see people with those symptoms which really sucks, can only get Telehealth. Was annoying as I had a bad reaction to the booster and so couldn’t go to the doctor to get my ears checked out, can’t do that over the phone!

For an experimental drug that has now been trialed on hundreds of millions of people, it does work. It does it's job. The Vaccine doesn't stop you getting Covid, that was never the promise. What the promise was is that it dramatically decreases your chances of getting seriously ill, being hospitalised or dying and on that promise it has delivered.

A simple comparison of case numbers and deaths pre and post vaccinations tells a very clear story.

I'll get a 4th jab soon, if I have to pay for it I will.

Well I don't follow the stats and haven't for a while, but P4S keeps telling us how many people keep dying, all these vaccinated people dying every single day?

But given 99% of people under 50 weren't dying of Covid pre vaccines, what are we protecting ourselves from?

Plus given the whole reason for ridiculous mandates was to stop transmission, that sounds like a promise of protecting from Covid? I know it was never a vaccine promise, but the reasons used by our Dictator was to reduce transmission, how's that working out?

Look, Dan was, is and always has been full of shit. The Vaccines work, that shouldn't be up for debate, it's fact.

Yeah we've had mixed messages and P4S has an unnatural obsession with the deaths but shit has evolved over time. We are where we are now, that may or may not be different in 2 months. That's life.

There still the Anti-Vaxxers that go up against just because they can even with being Proven Wrong.

Dan did a Pretty Good Job - Would anyone else done any better?

But what WA did couldn’t work for that long in the eastern states. They could only do it because they are isolated.

To say that the man who locked down his state the most did the best is ludicrous. He was the only premier who’s state lost control in 2020 and he could only recover by draconian lockdowns that lasted forever and simply punished all Victorians for his mistakes.
