So they claim, or did the protesters get infected by the thugs protecting the CFMEU offices?

There were already thousands of cases linked to construction, it was only a matter of time it hit the CFMEU offices, to definitely blame the protests is a Dan style scapegoating

But what's the alternative? Some people need to get over the fact that there will be deaths, and that that's a part of life. During pandemics, there will be more deaths because politicians/people do not want to take the necessary path to elimination - very limited international travel, extensive and vigorous quarantine procedures, potential loss of some international events - so there really isn't another option.

From the ABC blog:
Two more LGAs in NSW will be going into lockdown from midnight tonight due to "increased COVID-19 publich health risk" according to NSW Health.

Kyogle and Narromine LGAs will be required to stay at home from midnight this evening until October 11.

These orders also apply to anyone who has been in Kyogle since September 21 and Narromine since September 28.

Oh it was construction workers now? John Setka said they weren't real construction workers, which is it?

Rightio, I hope I never do as well, but not sure what that's got at all to do with my post. Oh, actually you've completely misunderstood who the 'Thugs' were, not talking about the cops there, they weren't even there at the time Setka was addressing the crowd...
