JennyMikakos It seems this virus is very dangerous with all it's side effects, the sceptics beive it's all BS, ask those struggling to breath, not piss on the fire my toast is done.

JennyMikakos No mention of the suicide numbers as a result of the Andrews governments draconian and poor leadership through this event, they just keep pouring on the fear and alarm surrounding Covid to justify their actions which are shortsighted and wrong!!

JennyMikakos She's back - the last Greek Colonel. What a fascist! AndrewsMustGo MikakosOut

JennyMikakos Sad but what ages - we are creating more economic and suicide young deaths as a result of trying to keep at risk elderly alive.

JennyMikakos The tests do not diagnose an infection, they are useless, what is wrong with you ridiculous pple, stop this scaremongering nonsense.

JennyMikakos

JennyMikakos So, masks and lockdowns and curfews don't work.

JennyMikakos Those masks work a treat

JennyMikakos Pollies & MSM BS lies. Garbage testing & rubbish numbers. Telling people flu it is covid. We will probably never know the real covid19 death numbers. They dare not give real numbers. The lengths they have to go to for a fake pandemic. When the masses wake-up then what?

JennyMikakos Jenny is such an embarrassment. We are in this mess because of her and DanielAndrewsMP mistakes. Time to go! 🤦🏼‍♀️🙅🏼‍♀️👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 COVID19Vic ResignDanielAndrews

JennyMikakos The deaths are a reflection of the delay between getting COVID19, ending up in hospital and then not being able to fight off this terrible virus. The decline in numbers will mean less deaths over the coming month. The graph is going downwards.

JennyMikakos Is the useless HM back at work is she...? Fkn disgrace!!

JennyMikakos No available car parks 6am in cbd again today. Tradies enjoying lockdown rules! cityofmelbourne melbournelockdown malakies cityofmelbourne

JennyMikakos You must leave now.

JennyMikakos Can anyone tell me how many people in Aged Care in Victoria died yesterday from non coronavirus?

JennyMikakos We’re beating this second wave. The death toll reminds us not be complacent or selfish; could be much worse. But some call for everything to open regardless of health concerns, others are furious about quarantine & the lack of armed forces ... while calling vic a police state.

JennyMikakos StayHomeSaveLives 🤪

JennyMikakos Died 'with' coronavirus or 'of' it?

JennyMikakos DanielAndrewsMP is 24 deaths good enough to awaken your conscience Resign & let the State have a competent leader to take us through this.

JennyMikakos Good job JM. That Arts Degree has held you in good stead as the State's Health Minister

JennyMikakos Oh, look who's back! The most overpaid Health Minister in Australia's history. She might get a cell next to Dan?

JennyMikakos Look forward to another sermon from Dan “The Undertaker” Andrews, while he stands at his pulpit, lecturing Victorians once again.

JennyMikakos There is a big distinction between dying because “of” coronavirus (sole or primary contributor to death) vs dying “with” it (IE passing with other higher contributory co-morbidities).

JennyMikakos replace JennyMikakos
