So did North Korea when they shot all the positive cases as is rumoured.

Sometimes the solution is worse than the disease.
Are we really comparing NK to Australia? Come on now.

The reality of the situation is that if everyone on earth locked down for 2 weeks AT THE SAME TIME - we would have solved the pandemic back in March or April.

Googly has a point that 3rd world nations wouldn't have been able to afford it. But if the Developed world locked down their borders for 14 days, and enforced strict quarantines for 14 days, we'd be in a much better situation than now.

The reason the US has 500,000 deaths, and the UK to Italy to Israel keeps having third and fourth lockdowns is because they all half-assed it from day 0. Right wing policies can hoodwink the under-educated masses, but it can't fool an apolitical virus.

Denying climate change exists doesn't make it go away. Denying the virus' existence doesn't make it go away. Just believing you hit a 6 off Pat Cummins to win the game doesn't make the ball magically sail over the ropes...you have to actually have to hit the ball.

Yeah because that’s comparable 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

Say what you like, but happy that my life hasn’t been too effected by the pandemic during the last 12 months. I have lost work and money at times, I haven’t been able to travel and my wedding (and bucks weekend) have been effected. But I’m happy I can still enjoy going out with friends, getting outdoors and the most important thing for me is that my older family members with health issues are safe and don’t have to be locked away and kept away from us.

I reckon come April it'll be all systems go mate. We have a fast bowler coming over from SA.
Death toll is coming up down daily and with the vaccination process getting quicker and quicker I rate by July most of us will have had our first jab.

Ireland are furious about this, apparently ZC have been ignoring their calls all week.
