Berejiklian says restrictions may be in place "until there is a cure, until there is at least a vaccine": Fear and self preservation evident, but not leadership; time that she be removed, given her Ruby Princess and other errors

by Ganesh Sahathevan





From News.con.au quoting Premier Gladys Berejiklian:

The current restrictions will be in place in NSW for at least 90 days, but NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian warned it could be a lot longer than that.

“The time in which these restrictions apply is completely dependent on health advice,” she said. “I’m hoping as best case we don’t go beyond what we have now.

“We’re in it for at least six months. Until there is a cure, until there is at least a vaccine, this crisis is something we need to deal with. All of us have to come to terms with that.

“Any time a commissioner signs a health order, legally it’s for 90 days. But it could be longer or shorter.”

Current estimates  are that a vaccine is, at best, twelve to eighteen months away.

Berejiklian is clearly afraid, for  her self. She must be removed, before she inflicts greater danger on this state.

Is Mick Fuller investigating those responsible for letting the Wuhan Virus into NSW-politicians and their advisers, including cvil servants, may well have breached state, Commonwealth laws for death, economic loss caused by the Ruby Princess debacle

‘Act like you have it’: NSW Premier now says 

community transmission is the focus but she did not seem 

to care in the case of the Ruby Princess, and certainly not in 

late January



The NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller has informed the people of NSW that the Wuhan Virus lockdown will last at least 90 days.The social and economic consequences of the lockdown are clear for all to see.

However, as reported by this writer, the reasons for imposing these laws were present in late and perhaps even mid-January. At that point, Premier Gladys  Berejiklian and her government were happy to encourage visitors from Wuhan and China, despite the danger to life, which has become apparent now.

As Robert Gottliebsen informed us in 2017, misleading the public is an offence , punishable with 12 months in jail.

These are untested waters, but clearly investigation is required. It is the duty of the Commissioner ,and his Commonwealth counterpart, AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw.

Berejiklian says "act like you have it" now but did not think this was necessary when inviting Chinese to come celebrate the Sydney Lunar New Year Festival in January,and then there was the Ruby Princess disaster: Berejiklian and her SEMC Chairman Andrew Cappie-Wood must face consequences immediately

                   ‘Act like you have it’: NSW Premier says community transmission is the focus


NSW Premier Gladys Berejuiklian now says "act like you have it" now but for some bizarre reason did not think that attitude was necessary early this year after the Wuhan Virus became evident in China and Chinese.As reported on this blog:

City of Sydney Lunar New Year 2020 Festival became an obvious security risk by mid-Jan if not earlier-NSW Premier to blame
To understand the  extent of Berejiklian's sense of panic, read story below and compare that to her attitude to entrants from China in January and February, and her management of the Ruby Princess disaster.


It is obvious that the Premier, and her State Emergency Management Committee Chairman Andrew Cappie-Wood are attempting to cover-up their mistakes by imposing ever more draconian, expensive measures on the people of NSW.Both of them and the officers involved must stand down, and face the consequences of their actions.

NSW Authorities are pleading with residents to just pretend they have the virus, in order to reduce community spread.


But Premier Gladys Berejiklian says these aren’t the number to be focusing on right now.

“Whilst the number of cases have stabilised there’s a number of reasons for that, and what’s of concern to all of us is that unknown.

“That level of community to community transmission that you might not pick up because people don’t have the symptoms.

“And that’s the real threat, people walking around without symptoms not realising they have the disease.

“That’s why its really important for everybody to assume they have it, and act like they have it,” Premier Berejiklian said this morning.

The state’s Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant says NSW Health will be ramping up testing in those areas that have seen community transfer breakouts, including in Bondi.

“It’s pleasing to see a decline, but we need to remain cautious, we have seen a decline in testing numbers.

“Hence today, I’m really urging that we increase the testing, particularly in areas where there’s community transmission, or around clusters and that’s really to assure ourselves that we have identified as many cases as possible in the community.

“It’s important to know that case detection, us finding those cases early, and then isolating cases and quarantining – that’s putting into isolation those cases around that confirmed case – are important strategies for preventing onward transmission in the community.

“And this important public health measure complements the social distancing strategies that the government has put in place.

“But the contract tracing by identifying these cases early in the community and identifying contacts is an important public health measure that we will need to continue with throughout this pandemic, as the community spread occurs,” Doctor Chant said.
