Less than 2500 deaths in Australia, and you call their government shambolic, idiotic and cruel.

made up for them - Keep having lockdowns and being scared then, all good.
Zero covid worked well also eh?
Vaccine mandates aren't right.
Anyone who tests negative for COVID should be allowed to do things. If they want to take on that hassle rather than get vaccinated then that's on them.
it's absolutely nobody else's business if you get vaccinated or don't get vaccinated.
That is from ages ago tbf. They now say that Omicron is so transmissible that normal cloth masks are next to useless. Notice all the MPs suddenly wearing the round dust mask things?
They did spend more time in lockdown than any other country because their vaccination program to ages to get off the ground, like, when it had no reason to.
seeing the same in the UK. The vaccines work and Omicron is milder = thankfully, ICU numbers staying low (relatively speaking of course)
Yeah that's the actual issue really. But there's not much that can be done about that other than reduce isolation times. Which, with COVID, they will eventually have to scrap anyway.
Omicron carries so much similarity to a common cold. You can't be having people isolate for days. It's just not feasible and not the way forward. Especially if they introduce annual boosters or some such which seems almost certain (and probably bi-annual for vulnerable groups)
I'm not saying that time is now, but come the summer...
I just find the whole idea ridiculous from any country, tbh.
If the vaccines were proven to definitively prevent infection, then the argument would stand up. But we know they don't. They are clearly amazingly effective in other ways but they do not prevent infection. I know this from personal experience and I'm sure loads of others are in the same boat. I've been infected with covid after one dose, and infected with covid after two doses. I'm thankful I had the vaccines because who knows I might have been worse than I ended up being.
But as they don't stop infection, treating unvaccinated people like they're rabid animals is pretty out of order. Especially given that if you're vaccinated even though it does reduce viral loads, you're less likely to have any symptoms so why would you be testing, assuming they reduce the need for testing for travel for vaccinated people as we get further out of this thing.
If an unvaccinated person wants to take on the hassle, cost and stress of testing, which would probably result in them isolating for a few days before their flights in case they catch it, then that's on them, that's the decision they make. But if they test negative on a PCR, then they haven't got it. And therefore there is absolutely no reason other than this friggin weird ideology people have got into their heads not to let them in anywhere, whether that be a match, a gig or a country.
The other argument, about unvaccinated people being more of a risk to the healthcare systems of the country they are visiting, could be applied, of course. However, you'd then have to apply that same rule to any single person with co-morbidities (for example my granddad has cancer, but he can still travel abroad). You'd have to apply it to obese people, or diabetic people, or people with severe asthma (my sister a few years ago had an awful asthma attack on a plane to Spain and she had to be taken to hospital for checks on arrival, they very nearly did an emergency landing!). Because ultimately, any of those people are just as much a risk to the countries healthcare system as an unvaccinated person.

She teaches high school, and doesn't know that it's illegal to put your kid in the trunk of the car. She drove up to a COVID test site, with her kid in the trunk, and thought that this would end well. My. Word.

And if the kid tested positive was her plan to just leave him in the trunk for 2 weeks or what?Texas mother allegedly put son in trunk of car to avoid exposure to Covid-19
