“It’s bat-s–t crazy nonsense.”

 

“The tinfoil hat-wearing brigade are alive and well in our community,” he said.

 

“They’re taking every opportunity to leverage the current situation to serve their own ridiculous notions about so-called sovereign citizens, about constitutional issues and about how 5G is going to kill your grandkids.”

 

 

Sounds like a certain poster we know

I personally am in favour of eradication and a vaccine - but it seems to me that this viral disaster has uncovered certain flaws in society which would be good to be addressed - ie attitude and improvements to aged care , general hygiene ie seasonal flu mitigation , improved anti-contamination from tourist/migrants/overseas travellers  , improved health care worker hygiene , improved bacterial cleanliness of public fascilities like trains 

 

Be a shame for an affective vaccine to be released then potential improvements forsaken
