Today Australia reaches 10 million Covid infections (officially known, in reality there may be at least twice that number). Nearly all of those have happened in the past 8 months. More than 13,000 Australians have died from those infections. That's about 20 years of deaths we see with flu, in 8 months. If you killed a single person, you'd go to jail for a long time. If you kill 13,000 and infect millions more with a brain-eating bat virus, you get to sit on National Cabinet. I'm ashamed that Australians aren't angrier about this. I'm as disgusted about that as I am about National Cabinet.
