Coronavirus spreads. But don't panic! (topical thread)

[Thumpalumpacus]

This is a little... no, very concerning.

Melbourne anti-vaxxers arrested as hundreds rallied in Australian capital cities on Saturday,
although Victorian chief health officer Brett Sutton says "fervent anti-vaxxers" are a "small
minority".  Sutton’s comments follow an Australian National University study that found
"significant and substantial" increase in hesitancy since the same people were asked about
getting the vaccination in August 2020.  The study found more than one in five Australians
indicated they would "probably" or "definitely" not be vaccinated against coronavirus.



Demonstrators in Melbourne voiced conspiracy theories and rallied "against mandatory
vaccinations", an idea that has already been rejected by the federal government and health
experts. Many protesters carried placards that read "my body, my choice" and "we don't
need no vaccination, we don't need no crowd control".    (Double negatives anyone?)

Here in America, most carrying that "my body, my choice" type of sign are vigorously fighting to deny women the right to abortion.

Funny how that works out. Perhaps if they fall ill with Covid they should be forced to carry the virus to term.
