5 November

Gladys yesterday said 'if our businesses are Covidsafe, we can open the economy even more'. She was talking about QR codes. 3 important things here: 1) QR codes do nothing to make any business safe. They let NSW Health track anybody who gets sick there, that's all. 2) Gladys and National Cabinet say they're following an 'aggressive suppression' strategy. Opening up further is the exact opposite of aggressive suppression, it's aggressive *relaxation* of control on the virus. 3) It's clear politicians have convinced people contact tracing can control the virus. It can't. It's their deluded way of saying 'the economy can go back to normal, provided we have good contact tracing'. That's a dangerous lie.
