25 February 2022 ‘NSW Health encourages everyone who is eligible to receive a vaccination or their booster dose to book into a NSW Health vaccination clinic or another provider without delay through the COVID-19 vaccine clinic finder.
Sadly, NSW Health is reporting the deaths of six people with COVID-19; five men and one woman.
Four people were aged in their 80s, one person was in their 70s and one person was in their 50s. Older age is a significant risk factor for serious illness and death for COVID-19, particularly when combined with significant underlying health conditions.
One person who died was aged under 65. The man in his 50s had received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine and had significant underlying health conditions.
Of the people aged over 65, two people had received three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, and three people had received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.‘https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages/20220225_00.aspx
Only a simpleton would think the Government could or would keep your personal data safe!! ‘A shocking data breach has resulted in 500,000 QR code check-in addresses being leaked to a public website where the data could be searched and viewed.
The data involved 566,318 locations collected by the NSW Customer Services Department in what has been labelled a ‘massive and dangerous’ violation of trust.
Addresses were not limited to NSW, and included other states and territories if those businesses or the parent organisation had registered with the government to comply with mandated Covid-Safe procedures.
Some of this data included the location of domestic violence shelters, secrete defence installations – including a missile maintenance unit – power stations, tunnel locations, and private addresses. Pretty much anywhere that people were required to check in to track Covid – which was everywhere.
It is such a serious event that lawyers have called to prosecute the government department.
NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has admitted that his state government is to blame for the unthinkable mistake, saying that the list was ‘uploaded in error’.
If nothing else, it is a lesson about the dangers of data and the blind faith that the government has asked citizens to have in its handling of information.
The government is set to introduce its controversial Trusted Digital Identity Bill shortly which will collect, collate, and share a frightening level of personal information about citizens. A leak or act of human error in this system would be a concern for the safety of citizen identity far greater than the NSW data error.
Perrottet said that he was only told about last year’s QR data leak on Monday, even though it happened in 2021. It has been referred to the Privacy Commissioner, but the real question is how a failure of security on this scale could be made without anybody noticing.
“That was worked through [the] Privacy Commissioner. My understanding is they were satisfied that the matter was resolved and that information was taken down. It shouldn’t have happened,” added Perrottet.
The government did not recognise its error, rather a technology security specialist by the name of Skeeve Stevens noticed that the data was publicly available and alerted experts who then went on to officially notify the government that they had a serious data security issue.
While the data was online, any one could have accessed it – including domestic abuses and foreign governments which is of particularly concern to the now-public military installations.
“Some of the scary things we were searching – firearms, armoury, federal police and where storage locations were – perhaps someone should’ve thought about what should and shouldn’t have been disclosed,” said Mr Stevens.’https://www.rebelnews.com/qr_breach_exposes_500_000_nsw_addresses?utm_campaign=rb_02_16_2022&utm_medium=email&utm_source=therebel
There are several New South Wales seats being contested today and one of them has a candidate in favor of accepting China’s Belt and Road Imitative. ‘New South Wales (NSW) Labor has yet to respond to an inquiry asking about a state-election candidate who has expressed pro-Belt and Road Initiative views, despite a state by-election due to occur on Feb. 12.
The Epoch Times sent inquiries to NSW Labor and the state opposition leader this week asking for the Australian Labor Party’s (ALP) views on Strathfield candidate Jason Yat-Sen Li’s comments showing strong support for the Chinese Communist Party’s BRI.
Li is the Labor candidate for the seat of Strathfield, a multi-cultural area in Sydney’s inner-west.
In 2019, Li wrote in The Sydney Morning Herald: “If there is a particular project under the banner of Belt and Road that makes sense for Australia’s strategic interest, brings economic dividends, creates jobs and there are no adverse national interest elements, absolutely, we should seize these opportunities.”
Li’s stance goes contrary with that of Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne who canceled Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews’ BRI deals with Beijing in 2021, citing their inconsistency with Australia’s national interest and foreign policy. The move was supported by federal and state politicians from around Australia.
The silence from NSW Labor on Yat-sen’s views comes as the party has denied that it had ever been approached by Australia’s intelligence agency, ASIO, about Chinese spies seeking to influence the party via a plot to bankroll a selection of NSW Labor candidates for the upcoming federal elections, as reported by The Australian on Feb. 11.
In a statement published on Twitter on Feb. 11, General Secretary of NSW Labor Bob Nanva said that it was the first time his party branch had heard of the allegations and that no national security agency had ever raised the issue with the parliamentary leadership or the organizational wing of the NSW branch.
“NSW Labor can confirm that no national security agency has ever raised these alleged matters with the parliamentary leadership or the organisational wing of the NSW Branch,” he said.’https://www.theepochtimes.com/nsw-labor-remains-silent-on-candidates-pro-belt-and-road-stance_4271095.html
‘A COVID-19 booster will help protect you and everyone you love. A booster will reduce your risk of COVID-19 infection by 86%. And, it will reduce your risk of serious illness by 98%. By protecting yourself, you’ll help keep your family, friends and community safe too.
So let’s do this. Book your booster today at nsw.gov.au’
The PUSH is on you, the citizen, to take these experimental drugs that do not have 100% effectiveness! In fact there are a lot of medical reasons not to take them! What government would push such procedures on its citizens?
Our politicians should be taken to court for pushing vaccines on their citizens that are not working! The following are statistics from 8 February, 2022. ‘Sadly, NSW Health is today reporting the deaths of 18 people with COVID-19; 12 men and six women.
Two people were in their 60s, five people were in their 70s, six people were in their 80s, and five people were in their 90s. Older age is a significant risk factor for serious illness and death for COVID-19, particularly when combined with significant underlying health conditions.
Three people had received three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, 10 people had received two doses, and five people were not vaccinated.’https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages/20220208_00.aspx
RICH DIVERSITY OF FOSSILS FROM “THE ‘DEAD’ HEART OF AUSTRALIA”. A team of researchers in Australia have been studying a mass of exquisitely preserved fossils found in the Central Tablelands in the Australian state of New South Wales. The deposit contains a great variety of plants and animals, including insects, spiders, fish and a bird feather. The fossils are so well preserved that microscopic structures and soft tissues can be clearly seen. Scientists were also able to identify pollen grains on the insects, and the stomach contents of fish. According to Matthew McCurry, of the Australian Museum, who led the study, “Our analyses suggest that the fossils formed when iron-rich groundwaters drained into a billabong, and that a precipitation of iron minerals-encased organisms that were living in or fell into the water.”
The rich diversity of the fossils, including many rainforest plants indicate they lived in a warm, moist environment. McCurry commented: “The fossils we have found prove that the area was once a temperate, mesic rainforest and that life was rich and abundant here in the Central Tablelands, NSW.” The fossil site is dated as 16 million years old, putting it in the Miocene epoch, considered to be a time when Australia was starting to dry out, and the landscape was changing from widespread rainforest to scrubland and arid regions.

ED. COM. The description “The ‘Dead’ Heart of Australia” comes from the headline in Science Alert and SciTech Daily. While this may inspire visions of scientists toiling in a lifeless desert in a remote area of outback Australia, the Central Tablelands is a farming and woodland region in the mountain range that runs parallel to the eastern seaboard. This region may not be lifeless, but it is no longer a rainforest. It has a temperate climate with frosty winters, and the areas that are not farmed are dry sclerophyll forest, consisting mainly of gum trees and scrubland. This fossil site, with its rich diversity of plants and animals, is a good reminder that climate change is real and Australia has dried out significantly, but it happened without any human industry.
For those who don’t speak Australian, a billabong is an oxbow lake. However, merely falling into a lake would never preserve the delicate structures and soft tissues found in these fossils. The exquisite preservation of these fossils could only happen if they were rapidly and deeply buried before any decay processes could destroy the delicate structures. Such fine preservation and the huge variety of organisms, including fish, land animals and land plants, fits well however with it being a washed in deposit, where floodwaters have washed across the landscape collecting and mixing whatever was living there and then dumping it quickly.
PS – Climate change has been happening ever since God warned Noah that there would be hot times and cold times as long as the earth endured. See Genesis 8:22.’https://mailchi.mp/creationresearch.net/creation-research-email-update-9th-february-2022?e=ce21bf0337
In the Land Down Under ‘Senator Pauline Hanson has been pushing for a Royal Commission into the government’s handling of Covid, and demand for one is starting to gain momentum. People always say that the preparation for Royal Commissions costs way too much money, with all the lawyers and whatnot, which is true, so… as an act of selfless public service, here’s a list of questions I’ve drawn up. For free. To save the lawyers the bother.
- Whose decision was it to scrap the previous pandemic plans put into place by Abbott and other earlier governments?
- Whose decision was it for the federal government not to join in the Clive Palmer legal challenge to the closing of state borders?
- Whose decision was it to set up the National Cabinet?
- Why was the National Cabinet given priority over the federal Cabinet?
- Under what legislation was the enforced closure of trade and businesses across the nation permitted?
- Does that legal authority need to be revisited or curtailed to prevent similar outcomes in the event of future pandemics or emergencies?
- What commercial or financial links, if any, exist between any of our health bureaucrats at a state or federal level and any pharmaceutical companies involved in the production of Covid vaccines?
- Are there any conflicts of interest between any of our politicians or health bureaucrats and the vaccine industries?
- Why were certain potential Covid treatments being trialled overseas using medications approved for other uses disallowed by our own health authorities?
- How many times has this ever occurred in the past? If the answer is ‘it has never happened before’, why did it happen this time?
- How much of the JobSeeker and Jobkeeper money was pocketed by big business?
- How much per head did Australian taxpayers spend on stimulus and other such emergency measures? How does this compare with other countries?
- Upon what evidence did our health bureaucrats base their decisions regarding lockdowns and curfews?
- At what point did our health authorities become aware that the vaccines do not necessarily prevent transmission? Did this discovery alter their advice?
- How accurate were the predictive models about deaths in Australia due to Covid?
- What is the federal government’s legal definition of mandatory vaccination? Of coercive vaccination? And of manipulative vaccination?
- How many Covid-registered deaths in Australia were “from” Covid and how many were “with” Covid? Precise numbers please.
These are just some of the questions I would like to see answered. No doubt you’ve got a few of your own you could add.’https://www.spectator.com.au/2022/01/my-questions-for-the-royal-commission-into-covid/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=UNFI%20%2020220131%20%20GK&utm_content=UNFI%20%2020220131%20%20GK+CID_a0717a015ab15c42ed9e5933da185fb6&utm_source=CampaignMonitor_Australia&utm_term=pointed%20questions%20for%20a%20hypothetical%20Royal%20Commission%20into%20Covid
