Covid-18 ? WTF ?

What is Covid-18? If that’s a mistake, it’s a bloody bad one and has gone uncorrected for hours. Doesn’t help me trust your journalism.

Vaccines are very much like the porridge of Goldilock's Fable. You want it just right. . . Too cold, and its useless. . . Too Hot, and you might just burn yourself. . . Lot of wisdom in Fables, not so much in 'Experts'. . .

how is the V working out there ? Didnt your Premier force the people of Victoria to take it or lose their jobs. ? Maybe it was worse than useless.

Is Covid-18 new?

I think we all know what may come.

Would’ve been so much better if 95% got the 💉 🥴🥴
