Brett Sutton says he did not recommend curfew

Chief health officer Brett Sutton dramatically threw Mr Andrews under the bus yesterday, making the explosive claimMitchell teed up Professor Sutton by asking if the Victorian Government had ever “introduced something without your advice, or against your advice”.

“No not against my advice, you know, the curfew came in as part of the state of disaster, for example, it wasn’t a state of emergency requirement,” Prof Sutton replied. “So you know, that was something that was introduced, but it wasn’t something I was against from a public health perspective.” At his daily press conference on Tuesday, Mr Andrews admitted that the curfew makes “the job of the Victoria Police much easier”.“I can’t pinpoint the individual and the day, I can’t give you a specific person,” he said, again adding “it makes the job of police much easier”.Victorian CHO Brett Sutton says the curfew was not part of his medical advice.

The numbers went from 700 to 70 per day. The curfew helped. Whoever came up with the idea, good on ya. IStandWithDanAndrews

RC into who “Dan the Dictator” has been taking advice from?

Curfew is just a way of getting you used of government control, the future now is not looking good even when or if covid goes away. This has nothing to do with a virus and everything to do with control. Victoria is just a test to see how public react. Other states will follow

Scamdemic dan at it again. How is it that Dan is still earning a wage of half a million dollars a year...? I dare you dan to show the Australian people your facts of what you're relying on to justify communistic economic destruction of Vic ...?

All about trying to reduce crime figures in a lawless “gangs” state.

Fitting qualities for an incompetent dictator DictatorDan not a Premier

Good luck with that! He'll just spin and bullshit his way out of anything thrown at him, because the mainstream media and journalists in general don't hold this snake to account and expose him for what he is. A cold blooded tyrant and trough feeder.

Can we get rid of the 5km limit and open shops again? It’s nothing for 99% of the population, you know, the ones who keep the economy moving, taxes and rates being paid...

Not me, or me or me or me.....what a circus. Someone sure as heck said it. Keep them all in after school until one of them owns up. This is a farce.

What an outrageous breach of trust and peoples civil liberties. sackdanandrews

The chair of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights said the curfew is a serious violation of human rights.

I actually have no problem with curfews but the issue is that it does show he making decisions with out the so called medical advice he always states. Brett Sutton Basically said the extension a guess not actually data or a super computer

Don't Point

Glad he woke up - the UN conspired to lock us down- most governments agreed - our POTUS is fighting in USA for our freedom from the COVID restrictions - meant for genocide- no mask no fear no Corona Only one in 19.1 million chance of getting Corona

resigndanandrews Can this clown be forcefully removed or do we have to just hope he comes to some sense and resign?

This bloke is an incompetent embarrassment, a true tool

One word..............SWEDEN!!!!!

What about fishing, golfing and others?

Medical advice? The curfew does not pass the pub test.

Oooo actually reporting the real news now!! Well done 👍 finally.

The State coffers need your money.

If police are responsible for making sure dickheads don’t break the rules, doesn’t it make sense to give them between 8pm-5am to free up members to attend to normal policing matters?

Yeah time to end that! Just ridiculous!

The reason he doesn’t change the lockdown laws is because he knows what will happen to him the next time he walks the streets COVID19Vic COVID19

Nothing is open, what do people want to do after 9pm? Confused?

DanielAndrewsMP is a criminal guilty of crimes against the people. This whole thing needs to stop NOW. No masks. No distancing. No lockdown. You're all insane to believe any part of this.

Where do you think you can go after 8 anyway.

If someone throws me under the bus I hope they do it by not throwing me under the bus at all. Just like in this example, for instance.

Brett Sutton....

For God Sake Andrews GET RID of him the man is a walking nightmare he is dangerous for Victoria because is obsessed with power sadly he hasn't got the brain to go with his need for power .Labor you will pay very dearly next election my opinion only and they should.

Assassination works

honestyandhumor He has the nerve to go on about us common folk not following the rules and breaking the law. Follow your own advise DanielAndrewsMP!

Like he cares

Brazen lie: night time curfew to prevent parties and illegal gatherings in defiance of expert advice against such gatherings.

commonsense058 the power of greed, negativity and lies! time to support and be courageous....not a pathetic moaner! the War on Dan Andrews/ Vic Labor is petty and cowardly! IStandWithDan IStandwithAnnastacia Victorialockdown

Nothing this fool does is based on science!! Dictators want totalitarian submission of the people & ultimate control ... he needs to go!!! His privatised police force needs to go too

20DMH20 EndTheCurfew

DiSlattery

Imagine chairman mao taking orders from anyone, read my fxxxxxx lips! Not happening!

Schadenfreude is coming Daniel. For you. And it will be glorious.

But he has to get the numbers up so he gets his cut o.0

honestyandhumor Daniel Andrews bases all his claim upon bullshit, industrial scale bullshit. No wonder he's now sloshing around in the sewers: his policy is returning to its source.

It’s over. It’s ended. He’s lied to us. Abused us. We decide. The people! Rule of Law & principles of policing by consent leaves it up to the people, what is or isn’t valid - & Victorians have been v patient! They can continue to terrorise us but idonotconsent wearefree

honestyandhumor Of course it's not based on medical advice, it's based on an insane dictator's dreams of total control.

Stick to it... get it over with...

Is he only getting advice from Professor Sutton? He should be getting advice from various sources so he can make an informed decision and one should assume he is doing that.

It was mentioned at beginning curfew was about allowing more resources to go into policing and enforcement so nightime didn't have the strain. Do certain reporters play stupid or just lie

End the lock down

Why bother arguing with a bunch of bananas. Due to someone’s incompetence we basically lost an entire year. There are many who obviously cannot comprehend the situation useless Dan has put us through.

Meanwhile...

Now they feel the wrath of their citizens, watch them all start turning on each other. I give Andrews 10 days at most.

Night time is nice and quiet at the park near me.

markc01

Although stops the movement of people that may be helping the spread. Can’t anyone just follow the simple rules? Or do these people want to be complaining about deaths instead.

There you go another one for Melbourne.

An example as to why you do not live in a democracy.... look at the lies

This doesn’t feel like a democracy anymore, and that’s scary. The numbers are not justifying the measures. Why isn’t DictatorDan talking about mental health, suicides, domestic violence? Reopen Victoria.

He may not have just relied on one adviser Police Emergency Services Defence So many need to secure a city awake at night better if most are in bed

The gatesfoundation evil plan. covidhoax thegreatreset creepsinsuits nomenhere

Big deal whatever the reason it has helped. What do people need to urgently do I’m sure it has greatly assisted the police in challenging times for them auspol coronavirus

And wearing a mask outdoors.

fried_hayek People don’t call him DictatorDan for nothing. That all-controlling control freak streak was obvious from the get go.

giveeverybodyguns

I’m fine with the curfew but not locking down the whole Melbourne because of certain clusters / suburbs. Kids are. Or able to go to school. DanielAndrewsMP need to target the clusters case by case basis.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FLATTEN THE CURVE!

Nothing new. The point of the curfew was to curtail movement during the lockdown in order to assist first responders, police & hospitals. Get the numbers down and they will ease up on curfew.

Lol, who could of guessed? Oh wait, that's right, literally anybody with a brain.

LiquidatorDan has gone rogue against medical advice & needs to be locked up himself so he can't continue to destroy the lives & livelihoods of Victorians. auspol

I copped abuse for even suggesting the release of modelling, formulae, data and assumptions into the Public Domain so that independent experts with more experience than can scrutinise the underlying assumptions of the victorialockdown plan. ScottMorrisonMP Democracy

thisclownneedstostanddown

Another bombshell Dan Andrews has really messed this up labour will have to remove him or Victoria will remove labour

Well where do we need to be ? You’re either working or at home 🤷‍♀️

Today he doubled down on it with the most illogical reasoning. He said 'it drastically reduces movement' and the conceded it's only for people doing the wrong thing of which 'there are very few'. Facsists don't get that a curfew is a big deal.

Why do you think people are calling him a Nazi?

FreeVictoria endthelockdown OpenTheBorders

Also, allow Year 6 & 7 back to face to face learning after the school holidays. This is yet just another pathetic decision by the Victorian State government to not allow these year levels to go back to school.

‘Extraordinary revelations’ over pandemic and Victoria’s lockdowns surface | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says “two extraordinary revelations” surfaced on Tuesday when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic and what’s happening in Victoria. \n\nMr Kenny said the two revelations were “crucial” because they help put the threat of the virus in perspective and demonstrate that some of the lockdown measures in Victoria, especially the curfew, are just random, overbearing and unnecessary. \n\nMr Kenny said in what was an “amazing exchange” between Victoria’s Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton and Neil Mitchell on radio station 3AW, the Professor revealed the curfew in the state wasn’t based on his advice. \n\n“I was consulted on it, but it was a separate decision making pathway,” Professor Sutton said. \n\n'Remember the Premier, Daniel Andrews keeps saying he has no alternative, he is taking the only road that he possibly can, and that he's following the data and he's following the medical advice,' Mr Kenny said. \n\n'Well he imposed a curfew on Melbourne, he locked Victorians in their homes every night for three months, and this move is not based on medical advice'. \n\nMr Kenny also said there was another 'important medical revelation' from Brett Sutton on Tuesday. \n\n“He revealed what many of us know but so many politicians and most of the media ignore, and that is that apart from being elderly, virtually everyone who dies from coronavirus has a co-morbidity, another serious health issue,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“Now this is not to downplay the deaths, of course, but this is important when it comes to the public risk, the methods used to suppress the disease in the community, and the failures to protect vulnerable people such as those in aged care homes”. \n\nImage: Getty The much more extraordinary revelation is that the poll referred to by Chris Kenny to back up his claims was entirely false: The poll The Age deleted because they didn’t like the results.
