Victoria Premier Warns That The Unvaccinated Will Be ‘Locked Out’ Of Australia’s Society

 

 

The Australian state of Victoria will “lock out” unvaccinated people from participating in society, Premier Dan Andrews has announced.

 

Andrews said that residents who refuse to get the jab are to be shut out of sporting events, restaurants, travel, cinemas and should also be refused access to healthcare.

 

He said he had given his commitment to Prime Minister Scott Morrison that Victoria would soon run what he called a “series of outdoor vaccinated economy pilots” adding “I’m not going to lock the whole state down to protect people who won’t protect themselves.”

 

RT reports:: Victoria is currently under draconian lockdown restrictions, with residents of Melbourne – who make up the vast majority of the state’s population – living under a 9pm to 5am curfew, forbidden from leaving their homes except to work, buy groeries, or get a Covid-19 vaccination. When the lockdown is lifted, Premier Dan Andrews said on Sunday, future restrictions will apply only to those who are unvaccinated.

“There is going to be a vaccinated economy, and you get to participate in that if you are vaccinated,” Andrews stated. “We’re going to move to a situation where, to protect the health system, we are going to lock out people who are not vaccinated and can be.”

 

 

“If you’re making the choice not to get vaccinated, then you’re making the wrong choice,” he added.

 

Andrews did not say what kind of services and venues unvaccinated people would be locked out of, but he said that once Victoria reopens, “it’s not going to be safe for people who are not vaccinated to be roaming around the place spreading the virus.” 

 

Despite Andrews’ plan to beat Covid-19 by segregating the vaccinated and unvaccinated, current research holds that vaccinated people can still catch the virus and spread it to others, and case counts are rising while hospitalizations and deaths are still prevalent in even the most widely vaccinated countries worldwide. Though vaccines can reduce the risk of serious symptoms and death, their efficacy at that falls with time too.

 

Andrews’ proposed “vaccinated economy” triggered outrage online, with critics describing the plan as “psychopathic,” Andrews as a dictator,” and urging Aussies “do not comply” with the rules.
