Re: Has Australia changed during the pandemic?
I could continue to argue with you (as those words from my opening comments have been cited in multiple newspaper articles over the past few months - many written by Australians by the way and multiple personal stories from Australians) but I really don't feel like being personally attacked here nor do I need to justify why I temporarily left Australia so I will leave it at that. I am a dual citizen if that's important for you.

Wow, mateship surely has gone to the back burner especially in this topic. Very entertaining, not.

Accusing Queensland Health personnel as having views normally associated with uneducated Bogans is highly unprofessional and smacks of elitism. Then accusing those same professionals of being obsessed with zero cases, closed borders, not trusting anyone, not looking at what other countries are implementing, casual racism etc. is unforgivable.
The fact that people who don't have Covid, are vaccinated, have tested negative, are prepared to quarantine, can't even return home to see a dying father or mother, demonstrates Queensland is incapable of juggling the wide variety of social, economic, and a variety of health issues. They are stuck on the one bogan playlist - Covid.
That is not your concern. People have a wide variety of reasons to go abroad or interstate for that matter. Work, love, family, to name a few. Just because you don't need to doesn't mean others don't. From a federal level down to a state level, its been an absolute disgrace that our governments haven't been more accommodating here. Thats their job - to look after the needs of people - not just Covid, but the wider needs. I am so thankful I live in a state who recognises the variety that life needs rather than the one trick pony of Janette Youngs Queensland.

Another doughnut day today all thanks to the good auspices of our CHO and Premier, and the cherry om the cake - we're getting the NRL Grand Final in October.
