The modelling around COVID-19 fatality rates has been consistently inaccurate over the entire life of the pandemic, according to University of Sydney's Professor of Statistics ProfSallyCripps.

The modelling around COVID-19 fatality rates has been consistently inaccurate over the entire life of the pandemic, according to University of Sydney's Professor of Statistics Sally Cripps. Early modelling created alarm among politicians and the Australian public that the number of deaths domestically could be over 100,000. To date, 102 have died from the novel pathogen.

"I think as we've learnt a lot, as the data has come out that we're not faced with these terrible costs to life". "And in fact the costs that the lockdown imposes, while they will save human lives from COVID-19, can have serious consequences on other aspects of health. "For example domestic violence ... mental health, there are studies that people are dying more of cancer, more of heart attacks.

ProfSallyCripps So decisions follow lobbyist interest then?

ProfSallyCripps GuoWengui has uncovered how CCP is buying out Australia. CCP use BGY (blue, gold, yellow) plan -blue for cyber attack and media control, gold for money bribery, yellow for sex seduction) to infiltrate every aspect of Australia to tight their control!

ProfSallyCripps Actually true. An overloaded medical system caused by covid-19 results in severe consequences for people wanting other medical treatment. The consequences could be death or permanent health issues that could have been prevent if Covid-19 wasn't controlled by lock-down etc

ProfSallyCripps What are the numbers? ppl tested ppl tested + ppl tested + WITH symptoms ppl tested + needing care fatalities with NO preconditions What are we reacting to? Beware the Hegelian Dialectic.

ProfSallyCripps No lockdown Sweden has the same Curve as lockdown countries UK USA etc & historically has had worse flu seasons

ProfSallyCripps What's scotty doing ?

ProfSallyCripps Globalisation has literally crippled Australian farming & agricultural sectors and the economy. From surplus economies Australia now suffers a massive trade deficit. May 2018’s “Debt Clock” showed the total of Australian debt as $3.5 trillion of which $800 billion is Govt Debt.

ProfSallyCripps Ah, we were after perfectly accurate modelling.

ProfSallyCripps No shit.

Travellers from COVID-19 hotspots should be banned from NSW businesses | Sky News AustraliaVictorians from coronavirus hotspots should be banned from entering “every business” in New South Wales, according to the state’s leader.\n\nNSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian today blasted visitors from Victoria saying there were “disregarding” official health advice by crossing the borders.\n\nShe also called on business owners across the state to refuse these travellers entry and service.\n'They should not be travelling anywhere, let alone interstate,' Ms Berejiklian said. \n\n “I think it is the prerogative of every business, every organisation not to accept anyone from those hotspots at this time.\n\n“That is basic pandemic management.”\n The last person leaving Victoria, please turn out the lights. Seriously wtf is going on? We have just over 100 active cases out of a population of 6.4 million!!! So now if your municipality has 6 or so active cases it’s considered a hot spot ... these are crazier times than a couple of months ago!!!! Makes no sense ...... So if you're in NSW and see a constant stream of cars going by and not stopping...... just smile and wave, they probably holidaying Victorians. Taking in the sights from the inside of their car.
