I wish they would do a better job of selling it to the masses. Are people in other countries begging for their borders to be shut? UK, USA, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Germany, etc? Anna is a pollie, does she really listen to fruitcakes on social media? They are probably a small minority but they sure are "noisy". The last thing in the world I want is more restrictions. The govt kept us safe (at draconian measures) until they got the weapons for individuals to protect themselves. Vaccines, treatments, masks, hopefully soon RATs will be more easily available. I don't know about diseases. I do know that bird species are often split from the original and made a new species if there are enough differences. It would be nice if Delta was the end of Covid proper vanquished by the mild Omicron and stop labeling Omicron as Covid19. And stop calling positive tests "cases". It should only be a case if it ends up in hospital. Didn't people use die from the flu and common colds many years ago until we learned how to treat them? Omicron should be in this normalized category. No one freaks out of the spread of colds and the flu. But people do die from these.
