Hasbeen,

You ought not confuse the national quarantine with the lockdowns. They are two separate policies. One stops all potential viral carries from entering the country while the other closes down most economic activity with the country. They are not the same thing although their proponents have similar aims.

Aust/NZ could have easily implemented a policy that closed the country off from the rest of the world while allowing most economic activity within the country to continue. That indeed is the policy I and many others advocated. And I suspect the outcome would have been the same.

Remember also that closing the nation to the outside world was a policy available to a select few only. No country in Europe could do it, nor any country in the Americas, Asia or Africa

Work out the percentage of the population dying; work out how many people die from all causes in India every day, all the time, covid or no covid, and quit being hysterical. Also be aware that India's public health system is and always has been, almost non-existent: 1.2% of GDP.

CAPATAILSTS are killing millions! Despite billions having been poured into vaccine development by world governments.

By holding on to so called "intellectual property" and restricting vaccine production, multinational drug companies are placing a death sentence on millions, particularly in the third world!

It's very funny to see you sheeple obediently bleating what your manipulators have brainwashed into you.

You don't know what you're talking about.

These vaccines are a joke.

If they don't stop you from catching the virus, & don't stop you passing it on to others, just what the hell are we paying for?

Paul1405,
Whilst I fully agree that the big Capitalists are undeserving of the massive profits, I also have to acknowledge that the likes of you i.e. people with your mentality, would perish without Capitalism's flow-ons' that people like you claim to rightfully demand !
