The Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison, has thrown his support behind the use of vaccine passports, saying the concept is sensible and has “nothing to do with ideology”.
Despite internal resistance within the Coalition over the use of Covid vaccination certificates for things such as travel and major events, Morrison said any business had a “legitimate” right to refuse entry to someone who had refused to get vaccinated.
The government has backed the use of a QR code-style vaccination pass that would verify a person’s vaccination status using information from the Australian Immunisation Register. The type of pass is often referred to as a vaccine passport.
“A business under property law has the ability to say ‘no, you can’t come in’, and they can ask for that [proof of vaccination], that’s a legitimate thing for them to do, and they’re doing that to protect their own workers, to protect their other clients,” Morrison told 2GB radio on Wednesday.
“It’s got nothing to do with ideology, and these issues around liberty and so on. We all believe in freedom, but we also believe in people being healthy.
“The sheer fact of it is, if you’re not vaccinated, you represent a greater public health risk to yourself, to your family, to your community and others about you, so it’s only sensible that people will do sensible things to protect their public health.”
In answer to a letter I wrote to the PM, last week I received this one in reply:
‘Thank you for writing to me about your concerns regarding the use of a COVID-19 vaccination certificate as proof of a person’s vaccination status.
The Commonwealth and state and territory governments are committed to keeping Australia open, and have been working collaboratively to contain the spread of COVID-19 and minimise disruption to the community.
Vaccines will play an essential role to ensure Australia is protected against the ongoing risk of COVID-19 as the economy reopens.
Because of the evidence of the ability of vaccines to prevent transmission of COVID 19, we have an opportunity to further consider safely relaxing restrictions once high rates of vaccination are achieved.
This will require us to reassure the community that people are fully vaccinated.
To support verification of vaccination status, Services Australia has developed a COVID-19 digital certificate for people who have received all required doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
The digital certificate is available now through myGov, Medicare online or from your
immunisation provider. It is not a “passport”. It is a formal reward of your vaccination*.
While we want to achieve the highest rate of vaccination possible, it will not be compulsory to have the vaccine. The Government is clear that vaccination is a personal choice – options to verify a person’s vaccination status will not change this position.
‘It’s not a “passport.” It’s a formal reward of your vaccination. While we want to achieve the highest rate of vaccination possible, it will not be compulsory to have the vaccine. The Government is clear that vaccination is a personal choice – options to verify a person’s vaccination status will not change this position.’
How does that statement reconcile with:
“A business under property law has the ability to say ‘no, you can’t come in’…”
The reward sounds very much like a chimera, thereby creating further economic uncertainty, especially for small business. If the business does not supply to an unvaccinated customer or one who refuses to reveal their vaccination status, other businesses will take the trade, especially in these current economic difficulties.
So, in “flying the government’s flag,” a business presses the customer for their private health information, leading maybe to a risk of a claim of discrimination; especially if there’s a member of a minority group in the party – who’s to say they weren’t denied service because one of them was black/alphabet/a midget?
Everyone else claims health confidentiality under privacy laws or wants to know whether anyone in the establishment has a communicable disease themselves. What’s the business’s real legal position if all it’s relying on is property rights?
This is a further abrogation of government responsibility for this debacle.
Actually, it reminds me of what politicians do in an election campaign – say one thing to one cohort of electors and the opposite to another group of them. (Labor’s message on coal in 2019).

I wonder if Coles and Woolies will ban the non-vaccinated?

I wonder if PM Morrison has thought this through. This may be his way of forcing vaccinations, ie, people afraid they won’t be able to obtain essentials, perhaps not even accepted into a petrol station. The fear of the unvaccinated might become manically stupid.
According to this clinical trials study report, the Pfizer vaccine clinical trials were supposed to be for 3 years (April 2020 – May 2023). This Study Record was last updated in 5 August 2021, and shows the 3-year study design.
《Actual Study Start Date : April 29, 2020
Estimated Primary Completion Date : May 2, 2023
Estimated Study Completion Date : May 2, 2023》
Yet, on 23 August 2021 it gets full licensure from the FDA. Instead of requiring three years to be fully certified for use, it seems the FDA thinks that sixteen months is good enough.
In the past, the tried and tested vaccines took between five to seven years for approval. Today, it needs just sixteen months. At this rate, the next virus vaccine will get the full approval stamp in sixteen weeks.
《The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday finally gave America’s most popular COVID-19 vaccine—the two-dose messenger-RNA jab from New York pharma Pfizer—full, unqualified authorization.
Experts hope full licensure, along with the expected expansion of vaccine eligibility to include Americans under the age of 12, will nudge hesitant parents to vax their kids. 》

I reckon Joe picked Kamala for the same reason the magic negro picked him: “never underestimate Joe’s ability to “f**k things up”. No one in their right mind would want Biden in power then and no one would want Kamala.
Now – Kamala wants the job and wants it bad. But just not right now. So we have three teams, team J&J Biden (Joe & Jill) who want to hold on at all costs as removal exposes them to the law (and not just their own f**ckups – but Hunter’s); We have team Kameltoe who don’t want to inherit the baggage of COVID, Afghanistan, Border, Inflation and more; and some “saner” types – who don’t want either, but realise that if they get rid of both Joe and Kamala -> here comes Nancy! [Maybe Nancy is a fourth team… her and Hilarity are BFFs!]
Who wins out of the above. Tricky! I reckon Kamala will … simply because everyone will be fighting to keep Joe in as a lesser of all evils – but the Nov 2022 election will be disaster for the Dems [the cheating will not be enough and will be all too obvious so Joe will just have to take the fall!]
“The sheer fact of it is, if you’re not vaccinated, you represent a greater public health risk to yourself, to your family, to your community and others about you, so it’s only sensible that people will do sensible things to protect their public health.”
He is badly advised. Clearly, overseas evidence is that “vaccination” does not prevent transmission of the virus to others – therefore a vaccinated person does not present nil risk of being re-infected, or of infecting others. Both vaccinated & unvaccinated present with similar amounts of titres in nasal passages.
Morrison has completely lost the plot. He has backed himself into a corner in trying to double guess the community’s fear of COVID. It will not win him the next election. But far worse – it will cause a cleavage of betrayal in the community that can never be repaired.
This may be his way of forcing vaccinations, ie, people afraid they won’t be able to obtain essentials

This is a link to email exchanges with both Coles and Woolworths where they acknowledge that check-in via QR code is voluntary and customers must not be refused entry as a result.
These exchange were based on the Australian Privacy Act 1988. If check-in is voluntary on privacy grounds, then I would suggest they would have a problem insisting on medical information as well. And why would they want to? They want customers, not arguments.
I wonder if our government is prepared to legislate for this, like they did in France where they are literally using police to stop people going into a supermarket.
Farmers and farm workers will require an authorised worker permit to travel to work, when moving between properties and when travelling for authorised farm business.
It is the employers responsibility to issue a worker permit to their employees. Authorised worker permits and instructions on issuing a permit can be found at coronavirus.vic.gov.au.
Farm, animal and bloodstock leasing activities, including:
farming activities and other operations relating to agriculture, horticulture, viticulture, irrigation, permaculture, apiculture, grains, fibre production, dairy, flower industry, commercial fishing, aquaculture and livestock; or intensive agricultural production including; greenhouses and animal production; or agricultural, veterinary chemicals and vaccine production, transportation and distribution (including the Pig Services Centre); or laboratory and diagnostic services; or animal feed production, transportation, packaging, sale, and feeding (including livestock and pets).
The Victorian Government has warned of penalties of up to $21,808 (for individuals) and $109,044 (for businesses) for employers who issue worker permits to authorised employees who do not meet the requirements of the worker permit scheme or who otherwise breach the scheme requirements.
There will also be on-the-spot fines of up to $1,817 (for individuals) and up to $10,904 (for businesses) for anyone who breaches the scheme requirements. This includes employers and employees who do not carry their worker permit when travelling to and from work.

If I leave my home to check sheep in a paddock 10km away, the cops (tax collectors) can demand my permit, issued to myself by myself, to allow me to travel alone for farm work. The dogs are free for now.

Think you’ve been vaccinated? CDC says you haven’t.

I wonder if Coles and Woolies will ban the non-vaccinated?
********************
This is a link to email exchanges with both Coles and Woolworths where they acknowledge that check-in via QR code is voluntary and customers must not be refused entry as a result.
Status / Gab Social
These exchange were based on the Australian Privacy Act 1988. If check-in is voluntary on privacy grounds, then I would suggest they would have a problem insisting on medical information as well. And why would they want to? They want customers, not arguments.
I wonder if our government is prepared to legislate for this, like they did in France where they are literally using police to stop people going into a supermarket.

Farmers and farm workers will require an authorised worker permit to travel to work, when moving between properties and when travelling for authorised farm business.
It is the employers responsibility to issue a worker permit to their employees. Authorised worker permits and instructions on issuing a permit can be found at coronavirus.vic.gov.au.
For agriculture the authorised worker listincludes:
Farm, animal and bloodstock leasing activities, including:
farming activities and other operations relating to agriculture, horticulture, viticulture, irrigation, permaculture, apiculture, grains, fibre production, dairy, flower industry, commercial fishing, aquaculture and livestock; or
intensive agricultural production including; greenhouses and animal production; or
agricultural, veterinary chemicals and vaccine production, transportation and distribution (including the Pig Services Centre); or
laboratory and diagnostic services; or
animal feed production, transportation, packaging, sale, and feeding (including livestock and pets).
The Victorian Government has warned of penalties of up to $21,808 (for individuals) and $109,044 (for businesses) for employers who issue worker permits to authorised employees who do not meet the requirements of the worker permit scheme or who otherwise breach the scheme requirements.
There will also be on-the-spot fines of up to $1,817 (for individuals) and up to $10,904 (for businesses) for anyone who breaches the scheme requirements. This includes employers and employees who do not carry their worker permit when travelling to and from work.

If I leave my home to check sheep in a paddock 10km away, the cops (tax collectors) can demand my permit, issued to myself by myself, to allow me to travel alone for farm work. The dogs are free for now.
Didn’t take them long to start persecuting the Kulaks.
The VicPol heroes in our town were in the street today checking permits of teenage kids who were on their way to do a shift at the local supermarket.
Last case of Covid in town was April 2020.

Morrison has completely lost the plot. He has backed himself into a corner in trying to double guess the community’s fear of COVID.

Why are you still listening to someone who gave you evidently wrong information following the US election?

What do you think the lockdowns have been all about? Apart from driving people mad, it is the destruction of small business. How can any business survive if the customers are not allowed to enter?

If Larry Elder doesn’t win in the Calishitia recall of pretty boy newsome then the US is pretty much fucked. The left are worried about him and call him the black face of white supremacy according to the left-wing rag, The LA Times. Apparently one of the tell-tale signs of his uncle tomism is that he pronounces ‘nigger’ instead of ‘nigga’ as all plantation blacks should do (h/t Tucker). I kid you not.

The dude admitted he had it wrong. I’m interested to see if he’s more cautious this time around. He actually seems to be getting a bit nuttier at the minute. Time will tell.

The Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison, has thrown his support behind the use of vaccine passports, saying the concept is sensible and has “nothing to do with ideology”.
“It’s got nothing to do with ideology, and these issues around liberty and so on. We all believe in freedom, but we also believe in people being healthy.
Spineless Scotty has thrown his support behind something? That must be the first time. How on earth did he manage that?
Scotty, you have no ideals and you have no idea what freedom and liberty and so on mean. You lacked the guts to speak up and support those who were falsely accused. Someone is pulling your strings and telling you what to do. And you are doing their bidding.

Indolent: “If check-in is voluntary on privacy grounds, then I would suggest they would have a problem insisting on medical information as well”.
PM Morrison said today businesses have the right to refuse service to those not vaccinated, that is, without a “vaccine passport”.
So he must have sought legal advice before he announced that?
It’s a very significant statement for him to make.

Noice. Thanks, Steve. I’m not sure I could be as collected as Avi sometimes. He does it the right way, though.

Throw a punch at Avi. Krav Maga will come into play.
===========
For the record…
Avi is the tenth child from a family of 17. He was born the night his family moved to Melbourne. He was kicked out of home at 13-years-old and spent time on the streets, in group homes and foster care. During his teens he was often using heroin and was in trouble with the law.
At nineteen, Avi volunteered to join the Israel Defence Force in a bid to kick his addiction and do something meaningful with his life. His time as a Golani marksman changed him for the better. After serving almost three years in Gaza, Avi returned to Australia to start his well-known IDF Training gyms. He sold his gyms in 2016.
======
Take on Avi at your peril.

I would think Cats must realise by now that the Liberal Party is the enemy of the people. Just wondering where people are thinking of parking their votes. I’m leaning towards Clive Palmer’s mob, led by Craig Kelly. It’s anti lockdown, anti mandatory vax all the way for me. Whoever can best represent those views gets my vote.

Or the LDP.
But the Libs can whistle before they will see my vote again.
