Review of COVID response finds Australians unlikely to accept lockdowns again

By political reporter Tom Crowley

    Topic:Epidemics and Pandemics

In short:

A review of Australia's COVID-19 response hails "courageous decisions" and "decisive" action early in the pandemic, but says social licence has been eroded by lengthy restrictions that were poorly communicated.

The review makes recommendations for "the next pandemic", including better preparedness and clear delineation of responsibilities between federal, state and territory governments.
What's next?

The government says it plans to establish what it is calling a Centre for Disease Control, a national public health body, by the start of 2026.

Australia's COVID-19 response frayed after early successes, damaging the public's trust and making it unlikely that lockdowns or other harsh restrictions will be tolerated again, a federal government review has found.

The review hailed "courageous decisions" taken by leaders early in the pandemic, without which it concluded the pandemic death toll would have been several times larger, but said cracks started to emerge as the pandemic wore on and communication was often poor, undermining public confidence.

"Trust has also been eroded, and many of the measures taken during COVID-19 are unlikely to be accepted by the population again," the reviewers said.

Recommendations focused on better preparedness and co-ordination between levels of government, to improve readiness for future pandemics. Studies of the impact on children and on population-wide mental health were also recommended.

But the reviewers – senior public servant Robyn Kruk, epidemiologist Professor Catherine Bennett and economist Dr Angela Jackson – also offered wider commentary on the effectiveness of border closures, lockdowns, school closures, vaccine mandates and aged care strategies.

Several measures in Australia’s Covid response would not be accepted again,
Covid-19 Inquiry report finds

Australians are “unlikely” to accept large-scale Covid-19 measures and restrictions in an inevitable future pandemic, with “heavy-handed” rules and large-scale vaccine mandates key factors to eroding trust.

As a result, vaccine immunity for diseases has waned, with a warning of “co-occurring outbreaks” that could overrun Australia’s health system.

The final report into Australia’s large-scale Covid-19 response has been released and warns the government that it needs to “rebuild trust” with the public, with “many of the measures taken during Covid-19 unlikely to be accepted by the population again”.

While Australians were more likely to follow government directives at the beginning of the pandemic, trust increasingly “eroded” as the pandemic continued, the report said.

Co-authored by former NSW Health director general Robyn Kruk, epidemiologist Catherine Bennett and health economist Angela Jackson, the report found this was, in part, because people weren’t given reasons behind the advice underpinning restrictions.


“This fed the perception that the government did not trust the public to understand or interpret the information correctly and contributed to the decrease in trust,” it said.

Submissions made to the inquiry noted that restrictive measures became “increasingly inappropriate” and were too “heavy-handed and controlling”.

The report recommended that a future public health emergency response should consider “fairness and proportionality when implementing and enforcing restrictive measures”.

Health Minister Mark Butler said the report was “thorough and measured” and vowed to implement its recommendations.

“We have a responsibility, particularly as a government, to examine our response to the pandemic, to learn what we did well, and in particular, to learn what we could have done better, and importantly, to build, as this report describes it, a high-level playbook for the next pandemic because we know there will be the next pandemic,” he said.

Mr Butler acknowledged Australia’s pandemic plans were “grossly inadequate”, limited Australia’s effectiveness and forced leaders to “build the plane while it was flying”.

People were forced to accept medical experiments on themselves.

Vaccines normally have a 10 year period to gain approval but in
many cases they were only tested for 6 weeks.
A new technology involving mRNA was used in many vaccines
which was not fully understood yet it went ahead anyway.
Govt bodies like ATAGI went along for the ride with dozens
of high qualified medical people including many university professors
all agreed that it was worth the risk.
There was a 100% agreement amongst them.

People in Victoria were given massive life changing fines for sitting by themselves
on a park bench in the sun
yet there was no evidence of Covid being transferred outdoors.

We had some of the longest lockdowns in the world - over 260 days of house arrest
for 5.5 million people.

Police Brutality - Man coward slammed: Flinders st Railway Station Melbourne Victoria Australia 2021

Sep 24, 2021

This guy woke up in a pool of his own blood and urine, calling for his mum.
I hope and pray that he doesn’t have brain damage from what looks like a ‘coward dump’ by a police officer.

I also pray that this officer (and his colleagues) get through this and have a change of heart, but justice must be served.

This did not look like someone upholding and enforcing the law, but that is what it seems he is paid to do.

??WHERE IS THE CONDEMNATION FROM OUR POLITICIANS??
