    Front page of tomorrow's paper. Don't mention the C-word. Why is the Government trying to pretend that COVID no longer exists?

    The Feds backing Clive Palmer against WA's hard border is pissing off a lot of WA voters. I wonder if they'd be more circumspect if there was an election coming up.

    Except she wasn’t the border czar. Maybe you should be asking why Trump ordered Senate Republicans to kill the bipartisan Bill that would have made a big difference.

    thewest.com.au
    Millions of Aussies ineligible for improved COVID vax

    If politics is going to rob you and your family of affordable healthcare and more, I'd say that's grounds for not wanting them in your house. I prefer my house to be a fascist-free zone.

    For all those wanting and asking me about Novavax availability. Novavax have yet to submit their application to the TGA for their JN.1 vaccine. They’ve told me they’re working towards an approval and supply for the “Australian 2025 winter.” Six months away. #novavax #Covid

    New JN.1 COVID vaccines available in December as new wave builds. Bad news for those wanting Novavax. Sorry.

    Latest statement (today) from the Government on XBB boosters: "Australia has confirmed supply arrangements for the XBB vaccine. "ATAGI is responsible for recommending to Government whether to include an approved COVID-19 vaccine in the Vaccine Program rollout."
