chocolate-chip chooky Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 This was mentioned in another thread, and I'm really curious. People are protesting in the US on our behalf for some reason? What is this about? Why do we need saving? PS I don't feel like I need to be saved, but I'll withhold judgement until I hear what this is about.

bookbard Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I assume it's about the fact Sydney and Melbourne, and some regional areas, are under lockdown and have to wear masks. And there's probably a link to the Melbourne protests (some of whom were carrying pro-Trump banners). I'd assume it's online troublemakers wanting to interfere in Australian politics (esp labour-led Victoria), and I wouldn't be surprised if there were some gun sellers who are annoyed at the gun laws in Australia. I've seen some things online about 'this is why we need guns' and pictures of the Melbourne protests, which is kind of scary. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa in Australia Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 could it have something to do with the Victorian mandate that nobody at all is allowed to go to work if they unless they are vaccinated by the end of the week. not a single exception. Farmers are not even allowed to farm on their own remote properties that they live on . doesn't matter that people in rural areas cannot get appointments that quickly. lots of people are going to lose their job. doesn't matter if your area has a vax rate of 89% and rapidly rising. not good enough for the Vic Government would that be why they are protesting?

Even though the Australian guidelines say that vaccine is not mandatory in Australia the politician told me that and I quote "in Victoria every single person who works in Victoria has been classified as venerable. therefor they have to get vaccinated immediately or they can no longer work" it is being called the no jab no job campaign https://www.premier.vic.gov.au/vaccination-required-protect-workers-and-victoria On the advice of our public health team, all workers – in Melbourne and regional Victoria – on the Authorised Worker list will require their first COVID-19 vaccine dose by Friday, 15 October in order to continue working onsite. They will need to be fully vaccinated by 26 November. The 15 October deadline will not apply to workers who already have existing requirements under CHO directions – groups like construction, freight, healthcare, aged care and education will still have to comply with previous advice.

Melissa in Australia Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) I personally know quite a few people who are going to lose their job. mostly because they cannot get a vaccine appointment soon enough others because they have health concerns but do not meet the very limiting definition others who have had blood relatives that have had serious side effects form the vaccine requiring hospitalization and are scared to get the vaccine I think it is a crossing over a line. It wasn't like most people were reluctant to get vaccinated. my very rural area is at 89% first dose, 64% second dose.

Mandates for public facing jobs like teaching, healthcare, retail, emergency services make sense. Outdoor work not so much (although seasonal workers/pickers could be an issue I think) I hope they are reasonable about dealing with needed exemptions in the short term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HS Mom in NC Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 American here. My guess is this is a ploy to try to get international support for their cause to eliminate vax and mask mandates here in the US. You have to remember there's an element in the US that thinks America is the greatest nation ever, and as such is admired in all we do and emulated by the rest of the world. They think as Americans we lead the way in all things that matter and so the false front of being everyone's hero (on the mandate thing) will get some press and put international pressure on their freedom cause against mandates. They assume, and are probably fed the idea by far right wing news, that Aussies are just as upset about lock downs and mandates as they are. This is the same group of people in the US that sent around memes a few years ago of Mel Gibson in blue face paint and a kilt yelling freedom from that movie when Scotland was considering being more independent, as though there's a clear parallel between Scotland and Great Britain then and Scotland and the UK now. Some of us have enough respect for the people of Scotland and Australia to trust them to handle this on their own and keep our ignorance on the details of these matters to ourselves. Carry on, Scotland and Australia. You can manage your own business just fine and most of us over here in the US know it. Taiwan is clear they want to stay independent from China. That's a completely different matter. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa in Australia Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) My ds 17 started an apprenticeship 100 km away and shifted there 4 weeks ago He us increadably quiet We couldn't get a Pfizer appointment until the 20th. I advised him to talk to his boss and ask if an appointment was good enough for him to keep his job. While I contacted politicians to get clarification of an appointment was good enough if there was no time to get the vax before the mandated dedline So his boss I guess thought he was doing the right thing. Called his mother, (a nurse) who picked ds17 up took him to some place he didn't know. A person came up to him and asked do you want this. He, confused said quietly no. They gave him a vax and he was taken back to work. He wasn't given any paperwork on symptoms to look out for.. So much for the informed discussion for people under 21 He doesn't know what type of vax he was given.. My brother had blood clots from astra zennica. I am sick with worry. I really wanted him to get the Pfizer as it is safer. He is 100 km away and not the best communicator I think it was coersion. My ds doesn't want to lose his job and is afraid to ask what he was given. He doesn't want to cause any waves. He cannot access his my gov record to see.
