Coronavirus 2019-2020 thread (no unsubstantiated rumours!)

If I read you correctly, I think you are referring to the recently shut down thread some poster here started.

It's moronic. But hardly surprising sincevir came from a poster that believes hakka could considered to be a separate group rather than Han group ( thus insulted every hakka here). Yhen he took offence and reported my reply. And the rest is history.

And now he got the audacity to start such an idiotic thread. Words fails me somerimes.

And that moron wasn't banned? Even his most recent stunt was nothing but pure trolling.

Woah that’s nuts , to treat your own at risk citizens as discarded lepers

On the contrary I think that this is a very responsible thing that the Scomo government did. They are sacrificing the privileges of a few to prevent their country from being inundated by a new, possibly vaccine resistant strain and are doing so despite possible public backlash.

I disagree. Surely the most fundamental right of citizenship is the right to enter and to reside within the nation-state in question. It is one thing to regulate airline flights, or to require arrivals to quarantine for a period on arrival It is quite another to ban Australian citizens from entering Australia entirely. Such a ban is a direct assault on the rights of every Australian citizen and a frankly terrifying arrogation of power by the Australian government. At this point I hope that the ban is not merely reversed, but that it be tested in the courts and found illegal so that the government might never be tempted to try such a thing again.

Between India’s long history of hiding and undercounting illness deaths and its much more recent history of restraining and suppressing the press, Modi’s administration has made it impossible to find accurate information about the virus’s hold in the country.

This paragraph was what they (the west) accused China of. How it sounds like it is no sin when the Indians do it?

I am certain that no matter what they said and criticized India at the moment would not have a lasting impact. India is an ally and would get away with almost anything just like Saudi Crowned Prince got away with murder.

The ability to return to one's country of citizenship isn't a privilege, it's a human right.

It's entirely feasible for Australia to repatriate its citizens all the while keeping their population covid-free, they just need to take the proper precautions and enforce a strict quarantine protocol.
