A medical protocol is a plan for treatment, a sort of guideline. They say it because they like to pretend they're doctors

time is a flat circle so there definitely were morons who were doing that exact thing. it's just that they didn't have the internet or television to broadcast their schizophrenia with, so they were ignored at best and openly ridiculed at worst. if they wanted validation from other schizos, they would've had to meet up in private and bitch to each other there. america was in no mood for baby games between this and world war I, and i wish we could go back to that zero tolerance policy for this pandemic because i am so sick of the half-assed, limp-wristed, lukewarm approach we've been doing for over a year now to try and keep all the adult children from having meltdowns. then they wonder why it isn't over yet so they whine even louder. it's like taking only half of a course of antibiotics and then going to your doctor to complain about how the infection didn't go away. either give up with the mandates altogether everywhere, or uniformly enforce them across the board. stop jerking us around for the sake of political coddling purposes.

Azithromycin is sometimes used prophylactically for COPD, and empirically in COPD exacerbation, so that cargo-cult awareness might be how it got on their shopping list.

There were anti maskers during the Spanish flu though, and I've read that one of the reasons it fell out of popular memory until now is because dying of the flu was considered less manly/gallant than dying in the war

Infamous Neo-Nazi and Yugoslav War Criminal, Zyklon Ben decided to weigh in on Australian covid lockdowns with his unadulterated tripe. Extraordinarily low effort considering his other works. He totally misunderstands the situation, and the fact most people think the anti-covid protestors are not only spergs, but pieces of shit. Who spit on, and harass healthcare workers and assault animals.
The cartoon doesn't work on a few levels because for one, AP and DA are both state premiers (The equivalent roughly of a US government). And they have both been the largest detractors of Morrison and his dealing with the pandemic. While DA's Melbourne was the centre of the protests last week, AP's state has only recorded cases now in isolation, and none of her state is in lockdown.

how likely do you think it is that the people doing this, understand what "sterile water" and sterile saline are? Do you think they'll use tap water or just crack open and old unused bottle of contact lens solution?

Tap Water in Neti Pot Linked to Death From Brain-Eating Amoeba
The use of tap water in a nasal-flushing Neti pot likely led to a Seattle woman's death from a Balamuthia mandrillaris brain infection.

Isn't Morrison a conservative? I appreciate how Zyklon Ben had to write "Morrison" because he is so bad at drawing faces you genuinely would not be able to tell otherwise.Infamous Neo-Nazi and Yugoslav War Criminal, Zyklon Ben decided to weigh in on Australian covid lockdowns with his unadulterated tripe.

Why the fixation on Australia all of a sudden? I have seen it around here as well, people saying "we will end up like Australia!" Hasn't New Zealand had stricter lockdowns and policies? Not to mention all the other countries that have been through various types of hell with genuinely authoritarian governments and high covid deaths. Maybe those don't work as boogeyman warnings because they're not majority white countries, so their target audience can't empathize?

Morrison is a conservative. An arch conservative who sort of flutters between being considered "Based" by the QBoomers , and a pedo in other right wing circles. That's a story in of itself, but it's super funny.
The fixation comes from a few places. So first and foremost, Sydney and Melbourne Australia's two most populace cities have been under extreme lockdowns since late July. The reason for this is twofold, first and foremost Australia didn't have enough access to vaccines. There were a spate of blood clot related deaths with our main vaccine source, Astra-Zeneca, which saw it repeatedly revised from being approved for all people, to then the over 40's, 50's and now I believe it's over 60's; by state and federal medical institutions. Although anyone can get it, they just need to be conferenced by a doctor beforehand.
As a sort of aside, with people not getting the vaccines the government got for us, it became apparent we had almost fuck all in terms of Pfizer/moderna. And so people just weren't getting jabbed because the Federal Government through genuine, actual laziness thought that we could get a supply of two of the safest vaccines, and because of that most of the population put it off. To put it in some perspective, Australia only on Friday managed to reach a 50% vaccination rate.
Melbourne specifically has some ire because the premier there, pictured, Daniel Andrews, has had the city locked down with the harshest restrictions in the nation for the longest amount of time. For most of last year, Melbourne was really the only city that got fucked by lockdowns after that initial panic lockdown in late March-April 2020. And that's made him a very unpopular figure in the conservative/alternative press, with him being called both Chairman Dan, and Dictator Dan. But because Melbourne has been locked down for so long, it's born a resentment against him. Although, his polling numbers look solid enough that he'll win. This in spite of the Murdoch Press (which is 70% of print media), and a consistent campaign on Australian Sky News to blackball him.
And what you have now is very small and concentrated group of grifters who've tried to make themselves martyrs. Take Monica Smit of the RDA party, she was actually arrested and incarcerated for organising one of the larger Melbourne protests a few months ago. She ended up being incarcerated because she wouldn't agree to her bail conditions, and then was locked in solitary because she refused covid testing. Which she then managed to spin to the boomer/anti-vax crowd as her being some sort of martyr and political prisoner. And this gets signal boosted through anti-vax Facebook and telegram, and through other personalities.
A lot of these guys have connections overseas, one of the more prolific members of the Anti-Lockdown alt-media is Avi Yemeni, an IDF vet who runs the Australian branch of the Canadian Rebel News. So he gets a run on there. And because you have these guys catastrophising things on telegram, YouTube and Facebook, it has a reach to places like /pol/ etc. But it also has some mainstreamish legitimacy because you have Sky News Australia, effectively just Aussie Fox News, collaborating overseas and being willing talking heads to spread this idea that Australia is in the midst of some dictatorial takeover.
In reality, it's mainly just two densely populated urban centres, and one particularly which is just over lockdowns. Fair enough. I don't live in either city, but the last lockdown we had was in June, lasted 10 days, and the worst we have is a mask mandate if we're on public transport, or in large places like shopping malls. And a recommendation, loosely enforced, that you sign in everywhere you go, to make contact tracing easier.

Thank you for the write up, that was very informative.
I suppose the thing that gets to me (apart from the hilariousness of Morrison somehow being both good and an evil pedo) is that there are countries out there that have really shit the bed on lockdowns and covid management. Like India with its 'let's send all the migrant workers back to their villages and spread and mix covid all over this giant countrym and produce a bunch of variants' which has now turned into oxygen shortages and corruption and connected people bribing their way into hospital beds while the poor die at home or in the streets. But you won't hear a peep about any of that, instead these retards will do shit like read articles put out by India's most conservative province about it being covid free and take it at face value.
They're such a bunch of clever, skeptical free-thinkers that it never occurs to them that they're scared of Australia in particular because (like you mentioned) it just happens to have a lot of media connections with the US that grifters can use, and also never occurs to them that propaganda put out by a nationalistic authoritarian government might not be 100% true. Literally zero media literacy, while they drool on about all the sheep following what they hear on CNN.

To be fair, India got its shit together recently.
I still like the media thinkpieces about mucormycosis. Meanwhile I'm just watching videos of Indian dudes inhaling steam from dodgy water sources. Truly a medical mystery.

I totally agree, which is why Australian internet posters, and Facebook commenters are actually, genuinely shocked at how we're being portrayed overseas as if we're on the brink of some event like the end of V for Vendetta. Because again, it's two cities, out of all the other capitals. There's literally people being able to go out and drink, and club and party like normal. And it speaks to me at least, about how the media can be manipulated into pursuing it, based on the very self-interested takes of a few egotistical, and opportunistic pricks. And that's what sort of gets me A-loggy.
Like to bring up Monica up, she's raised 300K AUD (220 USD), even though she's got herself a pro-bono lawyer. And then Avi, has a history of fundraisers for whenever he gets into a stink, and even has one up now for a supposed future suit of the police. He thinks himself a journalist, when all he does is the obnoxious Crowder-esque man on the street bit. But unlike Crowder, who was socked by Union guys, he's taken steps to ensure he doesn't get beaten up. And although he has a press badge, it quite infamously is only a pass to report on foreign dignitaries. So whenever the police do lock him up, and drag him away from some counter-protest, he seethes, screeching that he's meant to be there.
But the second, friend is Bryan Houston. Who runs the Hillsong Pentecostal church, like his Dad did. And is honestly, the more creepy of the two. Because Houston himself, is being litigated against for having allegedly concealed sexual abuse within the church. A church Morrison is very vocal about attending, and is pretty much the only real hobby we know he has other than as a rugby fan.

To elaborate on that just briefly, it comes from two of Morrison's friends. The first of which, is Australian QAnon social media personality, Tim Stewart. Stewart was the best man at Morrison's wedding, and Morrison the same at his, and his wife worked in the office, of Morrison's. When Morrison as PM apologised publicly for the institutional child sexual abuse, and how the Australians institutions failed thousands, he used the term "Ritualistic abuse", which was apparently a line fed to him by Stewart. And basically made QAnon Aussies go mad with glee. So that's why, at least for a few years, they thought he was in on "The Storm".

Alright this one got to me.
Is the argument that she wants vaccines, but wants to pay for them? Or that she thinks vaccines = communism?
Or is the argument even stupider, and she believes that HOSPITALs are communism, and everyone admitted should be left at home to die in their beds rather than seek medical care.
