In today’s Covid news, in response to the exponentially growing hospitalisations for Covid, the PM wants National Cabinet to…redefine hospitalisations for Covid. As always, not fixing any problems, just creating spin to try to hide problems. Again imported from the UK, you’ll hear ‘people are in hospital with Covid, not because of Covid’. The facts: - the overwhelming majority of people being hospitalised for Omicron are vaccinated, and - the overwhelming majority of people being admitted for Covid, are in hospital because of Covid, not something else. The only way to stop Covid, is to stop people getting Covid. Anybody who gives you triple somersault with double twist spin that says otherwise, is lying.
