Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #4065 – July 26, 2021, 12:37:34 pm The Sydney shock jocks are the biggest problem. 2GB’s Ben Fordham was a big supporter of Gladys but turned his guns on her when she announced the lockdown. Alan Jones has continued to attack the lockdown although Ray Hadley attacked both of them over their stances.Lest we forget how much sway Alan Jones has (or at least had), IIRC a Labor PM (I think it was Rudd) sent the guy who he was about to name to the Defence Ministry to see Alan Jones to seek his advice on that portfolio. Obviously, it was less to seek advice than avoid excoriation, but it’s amazing that Labor felt it needed to pander to a right-wing shock jock. How much harder would it be for a conservative Premier when he could incite her base to turn on her. Quote Selected Last Edit: July 26, 2021, 12:39:11 pm by Mav

Yes, he garnished a reputation for having occasional friendly disputes with superiors, oddly(maybe not) quite a few ended up good friends afterwards. They would have him charged but at the same time look after him, I suppose it's who you know. I've heard his former officers laud his ability, he had a bit of talent for diagnosing and predicting faults in systems, and would be used as a bit of a trouble-shooter on problems, but he will tell you the day to day on board would get the better of him and he'd blow off steam. Mind you, he was their boss at the time in post service careers!To me his officers are an example of old world professionalism you don't see now, kyboshing Mitch Robinson is an example of a modern failure, and especially around this COVID stuff and politics. Nobody backtracks, corrects course or admits a blunder to fix their stuff ups, they just deny deny deny and push on even if it is to wider derision and oblivion.

But I'm afraid Gladys is only reinforcing those perceptions with an inability to take off in any positive direction.Modern politicians do not want to make a mistake, they see mistakes as death, better to do nothing than to make a mistake, ............ but indecision is also deadly in certain circumstances.

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #4070 – July 26, 2021, 02:35:31 pm Well my, my my. Just returned from the GP to schedule my 2nd AZ dose and get my PTSD meds prescription, and witnessed a woman in her 30s in tears at reception. Why? She had had her first AZ dose the other day and was having some adverse reactions and was terrified that she was going to die. And guess what she was quoting as to the reason why... all the pseudo science peddlers, anti-vaxxer info and what friends had told her about the vaccines being more dangerous than Covid!! Fortunately one of the Docs saw her immediately - naturally I didn't mind her going in ahead of my appointment. Got me to thinking about the mental health impact on folks from vaccine fear mongerers and the further damage to those already with a mental health issues from these -- well meaning -- ignorant, misinformed drongos.When she came out from seeing the Doc, I went in (to the same Doc). Terrific fella. He told me a little of her concerns. She was experiencing the mild effects of the vaccine, mild headache, muscle aches and slight rise in temperature. Little he could say placated her fear. When I left and went to my car, she was still pacing the car park, in tears. Yours truly had a chat with her... she's much better now. I confess to feeling very tempted to dropping the next anti-vaxxer I meet. Quote Selected

I think I have mentioned this previously in this very forum, if I can find the report I'll post a link.There was a report late last year or early this year from a UK Health group, it studied the deleterious effects of duress and stress on vaccination and other medicine, it did a study in both animal and human models. They found that the stress and duress, be it induced in animals or caused by the turd-burgling anti-vaxxers was in fact deadly than any injection! Summarised, when people are under duress/stress it imparts real world chemical changes in a patients body, those changes can go on to cause medicines and vaccines to act differently.For the sceptics the speaker then cited the common scenario in dealing with children, some adult sedatives can be a stimulant for children, it has a name called a Paradoxical Reaction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradoxical_reactionIndeed, it seems FaceBook, Instagram and Twitter can kill you!

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #4077 – July 26, 2021, 05:27:07 pm Don’t say that! I’m needle-phobic and when I went for the jab they put me in a separate room on a bed (maybe for my safety but probably so I didn’t scare off everyone waiting for a free cubicle). If your theory about stress affecting the vaccine is right, I’m rooted. Quote Selected
