The situation in Western Australia (WA) was extremely complex, but I will attempt to distill it here:

For a little over two years, there was a socio-political obsesssion with ‘covid zero.’ This meant that any ‘community transmission’ of ‘covid’ (as determined via ‘testing’ and ‘cases’) was deemed unacceptable due to a ‘lethal risk of covid.’ ‘Protecting the hospitals’ was a key part of this message.

‘Covid zero’ was ‘accomplished’ via ‘hard borders’ - not just the border of Australia, but the state border of WA and different borders within WA. Remote Aboriginal communities (in particular) were isolated for years.

The flow of people was controlled using a complex quarantine-and-surveillance operation that involved ‘medi-hotels,’ quarantine at home, quarantine on an island off Perth (Rottnest Island), roadblocks, control at the ports and aerial surveillance of the coastline and borders.

People were identified and tracked using digital passes on their phones, facial recognition, and physically by the police and aerial surveillance (as above). If you needed or wanted to belong to society and adhered to the system by travelling across borders (especially), you would be tracked. Trangressors were punished by fines, arrest, jail time, lawfare, and humiliation in the media.

Official permission to move across the state border was determined by the number of ‘cases’ in other states. If the Premier decided that ‘cases elsewhere were too high,’ the border would close with only a few hours’ notice and Australians got stranded all over the country and the world.

Once the vaccine was rolled out at the end of 2021, permission to move not just across the border but within our own community (and even earn a living) was more tightly coupled to the vaccine. These vaccine requirements dragged on in many cases to the end of 2022, and many jobs in WA still require injection in 2024.

The rules changed daily/weekly and often without notice, were highly destabilising, deliberately nonsensical, and purposefully demoralising (see below video).

Under this system, it was not possible to conduct business with the outside world or plan for one’s life in the medium- and long-term: they told us this ‘new normal’ would ‘last forever.’

Anyone who decided early on (like me) that they would not comply with this new system in any way found that their lives as they knew it were suddenly over.

In order to get the majority to comply, those who would not comply in Western Australia were scapegoated and demonised using violent rhetoric from politicians playing on the citizens’ fear of ‘the outside world.’

Further, all over the country, within different jurisdictions (states, or local government areas ‘LGAs’), Premiers and Health Officers issued different rules based on ‘cases,’ ‘testing,’ ‘compliance',’ and vaccine rates (1, 2, or 3 doses). These rules were concerned with where we could go, whom we could see, what borders we could cross, and what we could do with our bodies even in our own homes and backyards. Rules in different jurisdictions conflicted and, again, changed hourly, daily, or weekly.

Gotta have a COVID Truth and Justice Comittee

In conversations caught on hidden camera, New York City’s former COVID czar said that he’d organized a pair of sex parties in the second half of 2020, as New Yorkers coped with peak pandemic social isolation. “The only way I could do this job for the city was if I had some way to blow off steam every now and then,” Jay Varma told an undercover reporter with whom he thought he was on a date. In a video compiled from several recordings taken this summer, the onetime senior public-health adviser to city hall describes the two events that took place in August and November of 2020. He also talked about his work promoting vaccination in the city by making it “very uncomfortable” for those who wanted to avoid the shots.

Water Fountains were turned off in parks, schools, and hospitals during Covid-19. Anywhere a water fountain could be found, it was dry.
AND THIS WENT ON FOR YEARS...
In fact, I’m uncertain if all the water fountains have been turned back on!

Can the person please stand who authorized this decision?

Covid is not in the water and if there is NO contact between the mouth and faucet, the risk of contact transmission reduces to a number too small to measure.

"Two mask and respirator experts speak out"
KristenMeghanTV, September 4, 2021
https://rumble.com/vm3715-two-mask-and-respirator-experts-speak-out.html

RUMBLE PAGE NOTES: "Tammy Clark and Kristen Meghan. Have a nearly combined 40yr experience in the fields of Occupational and Environmental Health and Safety, Public Health and Industrial Hygiene. This took place at the Oakland County Commissioners meeting."

TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES: Oakland County is in the state of Michigan, USA. It includes most of Detroit's northern suburbs.

KRISTEN MEGHAN: My name is Kristen Meghan Kelly and I reside in Hudsonville, Michigan. Echoing what my colleague has stated,[1] I too am a subject matter expert that has managed the respiratory protection for over 76,000 people. Over the past 19 years, 9 of which was on active duty, I am an senior industrial hygienist cross-credentialed in public health, decontamination site management, and managed the decontamination efforts in the city of Chicago.

You now know that you are looking at the wrong professionals that you deem experts in regards to controlling health hazards and conducting the proper health risk assessment to determine which controls are capable of controlling such hazards and we always factor in individual health data and process-specific factors when selecting controls.

For example, how long would you be wearing the PPE [personal protection equipment]? What other PPE are you wearing? What atmospheric factors would be the PPE be worn in?

We do this so we do not create a greater hazard to the wearer because the use of masks or respirators is never a one size fits all approach. In fact I'm a subject matter expert on that litigation and I've never been dismissed by a judge as an expert.

What you need to understand is that we skipped the hierarchy of controls and we should have stopped at engineering controls. This is because history tells us we cannot outrun a virus.

The primary spread of this virus is the inhalation of aerosols. Masks cannot and do not stop aerosols. If they did, there would be no need for respiratory protection for aerosol [inaudible] processes. And I don't mean this as a threat, but if you think masks stop aerosols, please go abate some asbestos, walk into some pepper spray and tell me if you can inhale it.

Why should we be listening to the experts who close parks, demonizing going outside, and tell
teachers and offices to close their doors and windows? This puts us at a greater risk of exposure. When aerosols are involved they stay suspended in the air a very long time. We exhale aerosols by just breathing. Masking is absolutely useless, harmful, and abusive.

When I mention implementing controls as a senior industrial hygienist I always have to go back and verify the confidence in those controls. It's highly evident no one has ever gone back and verified the confidence in these controls because if we did we would have seen that the masks are not stopping the spread, they're creating a greater hazard.

They— 18 months ago I went on my FaceBook and said, oh, we're doing a mask mandate? You're going to see bacterial pneumonia, contact dermatitis, peri oral dermatitis that you call mask [inaudible], suicides, aggravating PTSD.

I don't need my notes anymore because I've been doing this for almost 20 years.

I am a veteran with PTSD and the amount of discriminatory efforts involved with these mask mandates caused suicidal ideation. I am in litigation with Delta Airlines and I can tell you right now that the next member of this state that violates my rights will also be sued.

I took an oath to the Constitution, it's my understanding that you did, too. Everyone that voted to put children in masks, you are child abusers. And I want everyone of you to know that I will for free, as I've been doing for 18 months, act as expert witness no judge has ever dismissed me.

Thank you very much. And please remember your oath, because we will remember when your reelection is up. And by the way, I'm not a Republican and this is not political for me.

Thank you very much.

MALE VOICE: Thank you.

MALE TV REPORTER: Tonight while Governor [of California] Newsom is telling all of us to have Thanksgiving dinner outside, he's facing some new fallout for that fancy birthday dinner party he went to at the French Laundry.[1]

[cut]

GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM: It was in Napa which is the orange status, relatively loose compared to some other counties. Ah, it was to be an outdoor ah, ah, restaurant.

[cut]

MAYOR LORI LIGHTFOOT: I can't make this any clearer. You absolutely must stay at home. We will cite you. And of we need to we will arrest you and we will take you to jail. Period. There should be nothing unambiguous about that.

[cut]

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: I guess you would all imagine that a lot of people were surprised when she made a trip to the hair salon.

[cut]

MAYOR LORI LIGHTFOOT: I take my personal hygiene very seriously. As I said, I felt like I needed to um, have a haircut.

[cut]

VOICE OF FEMALE TV REPORTER: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi under fire tonight after security footage showed her inside a San Francisco hair salon that's closed to the general public.

[cut]

SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI: It was a set up. So I take responsibility for falling for a setup. And that's all I'm going to say on that. [cut] I think that they owe, that the salon owes me an apology.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Almost immediately after telling the rest of New York City to stay inside for example, Mayor Bill De Blasio loaded up his SUV with government bodyguards and headed for the gym across town in Brooklyn.

[cut]

MAYOR BILL DE BLASIO: I need exercise. And again, I have to stay healthy so I can make the decisions for the people of this city.

[cut]

VOICE OF FEMALE TV REPORTER: The leader is embroiled in controversy for attending a party at 10 Downing Street in May of 2020. At the time, the country was under a strict government-imposed lockdown.

[cut]

CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN TRUDEAU: Let's put into practice what it truly means to love our neighbors as ourselves by making sacrifices to protect their health. Let's stay home for them.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Not long after recording the video you just saw, Trudeau left the capital and traveled all the way to Quebec to visit his family at their lake house. Just like you'd want to do on Easter, if you were allowed to do that. But you're not allowed. So stop complaining.

[cut]

VOICE OF MALE TV REPORTER: Former president tweeted: "It might be Labor Day weekend, but let's all remember that we're still in the middle of a pandemic. Wear a mask, practice social distancing, and follow the experts. It'll save lives."

[cut]

ROD MELONI: Well, you know, the governor spent a lot of time asking Michiganers not to go on spring break, particularly in Florida. It took the governor's office a couple of months to confirm it, but she indeed flew from Lansing to West Palm Beach in a private jet on March 12th, spent the weekend with her father, and headed back to Lansing on March 15th.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Again and again they do the very things they punish us for doing. When they're caught, they acknowledge no shame. They are entirely lacking in self-awareness. They have no idea how absurd they are.

On November 20, 2022, 85% of Stanford University’s Faculty Senate voted to condemn Dr. Scott Atlas, a former chief of radiology at the Stanford University Medical Center who was serving on President Trump’s White House Coronavirus Task Force. The Stanford faculty pilloried Atlas for questioning the efficacy of state-enforced lockdowns, face masks, and social distancing protocols, even arguing that his claims were “anathema to our community, our values and our belief that we should use knowledge for good.” A few weeks after the Faculty Senate rendered its verdict, the Academic Advisory Board of the University of California’s National Center for Free Speech and Civic Engagement held a meeting in which its members questioned whether Atlas’ COVID-19 pronouncements were protected by academic freedom.

....

Why did the Stanford Faculty Senate and the National Center for Free Speech and Civic Engagement feel the need to castigate Atlas? In the years since the pandemic, experts have acknowledged both the negligible effects of the lockdowns on mortality rates and the deleterious effects of COVID-19 policy on childhood development. Given everything we know now, was Atlas’ perspective really deserving of institutional rebuke?

I saw Dr. Atlas speak in person a year ago. He was very clear and impressive.

No Memory Holes for the Good or the Bad

As 2024 draws to a close, it’s inevitable that we reflect. Although some progress has been made, we remain in limbo - stuck between two entirely different worlds. One minute, we feel inspired and uplifted at gatherings with diverse, freedom-loving groups. Next minute - jarringly - we’re confronted with someone seemingly stepping out of a Dr Who’s tardis, wearing a facemask: "I have to isolate -I just tested positive".

So let’s get some evidence down, explaining some uncomfortable truths: what happened in NZ in the covid era? With some positive experiences too. Many people think ‘we must destroy’ any evidence, avoid accountability. But Margaret Anna Alice reminds us, #mistakeswerenotmade. We refuse to memory hole any of it.

To those people who think that ‘covid is in the past’, I wrote this post recently about how many employers are still, yes today, insisting their staff are ‘fully vaccinated’:

Three years on: workplace discrimination continues against thousands of New Zealanders
Ursula Edgington, PhD
Nov 3

The good news is, although it’s not been announced publicly yet, Health New Zealand have finally announced, >2 years after the ‘vaccine’ mandates were ended, its Pre-Employment criteria of covid jabs is dropped. Health NZ also released it’s Q1 ‘Performance Report’ which contains some concerning details about pharmacies rolling out more jabs, and GPs incentives for jabbing babies, including this quote:

“GPs are paid $40 for every baby who receives their six-week immunisations, and an additional $40 for babies meeting high-needs criteria (Māori, Pacific, Community Services Card, quintile five and rural)” (pg 15)

So unethical policies continue, albeit slightly below the surface. And as I illustrated above, many of the job vacancies requiring covid jabs are within the commercial sector, so this policy change will make little difference for many job-seekers. Especially when the entities supposedly protecting us from discrimination and our rights to informed consent, are silent. As I reported here.

But the evidence of these illegal and unethical policies will not be memory-holed. These documents cannot be shredded into oblivion, no matter how hard some people try to censor the truth...
