definitely one of the most insane of the many covid insanities in Australia. what’s dreadful is how virtually all the Australian media don’t see anything wrong with this crap:
8 Aug: Russia Today: #FakePoos: Aussies fume after Victoria’s premier concedes ‘Covid in wastewater’ used to justify statewide lockdown never existed
Australians are airing their grievances with Victoria Premier Dan Andrews after he admitted he cited non-existent coronavirus-tainted sewage in his decision to lock down the state.
Andrews announced a seven-day statewide shut down on August 5 in response to the “wastewater detection” of Covid-19 in Wangaratta, a rural city about 236km (147 miles) from Melbourne...
But the reasoning behind the draconian statewide decree was soon rubbished by local officials. Andrews initially claimed the sewage test had “pinged” positive, then went negative before turning positive again. According to local media reports, his explanation didn’t hold water. Less than 24 hours later, Wangaratta mayor Dean Rees challenged the premier’s chain of events. There had been several successive tests returning negative results following one positive detection on July 30, regional health officials confirmed...
The uproar eventually forced Andrews to admit his reasoning stank.
“We apologize. We try to get the best information out as quickly as we can. Nothing is perfect and no one has ever pretended that it is,” he said on Saturday...

I hate that excuse. He blatantly lied to them to enact tyrannical measures and then snivels, “No one is perfect.”
Okay, could he at least avoid becoming a Facist?
