The city of Sydney announced on Saturday that they will begin a two-week lockdown this week due to a surge in COVID-19 Delta variant cases, Reuters reported on Monday.

Health officials said that parts of the city were already locked down due to the outbreak, saying cases and exposure sites are rapidly increasing.

The lockdown will include parts of the Australian state of New South Wales and their three regions, Blue Mountains, Central Coast, and Wollongong.

Two weeks you say?

And also these damned lockdowns are proven NOT to work.

Insane. More than 3x as many people die of suicide each year in Australia than have died from the Wuhan Flu in the last 1.5-years.

No, the “science” says that if you lock everyone one down after two weeks the communist chinese virus gives up and goes somewhere else. Can’t you see the logic? It’s “science” y’know!

LOL! After the Aussie lockdown has its effect, the virus will just hop on a plane, land in Mexico, then travel across our southern border on an NGO-funded bus.

I’d rather give up and go live on Crematoria (early 2000s reference).

You’ll notice they didn’t say which “two weeks”? Maybe they meant all of them?

This lockdown unlike other lockdowns down under comes from New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian of the Liberal Party of Australia.

The Liberal Party is supposed to be the “Conservative Party” of Australia and is led by Prime Minister Scott Morrison “Conservative Christian”.

Son’s biz has web meetings every other night with an associate in Sydney. The Aussie said the government is requiring everyone have the COVID tracking app on their phone and only allowing travel just a few miles away from home. This guy was eating in an outdoor cafe when the police arrived and checked all the customer’s addresses to make sure they were within the allowed travel distance.
