That was already addressed but to re-iterate:
Kerryn Phelps never said she was anti-vaccine, and recommends taking the vaccine as the real benefits outweighs the risks. Just two days ago the group she is a board member of, OzSAGE, put out
this submission, calling for booster shots in children under 5.
Phelps and her group are calling for even stronger vaccines, they want a vaccine that can stop transmission of Omicron. Their POV is that long Covid will cause a disability crisis. Until an omicron stopping vaccine is developed they want a return to mandatory indoor masks, capacity restrictions, mandatory isolation, a return to mass testing, contact tracing, movement restrictions, curfews and even considering
returning to lockdowns. Do they Craig Kelly’s and Malcom Roberts’s of this world actually think she’s on their side?
If anyone thinks Phelps has joined the conspiracy theorists you have the wrong idea, she wants to be even stronger in the Covid response, even today, which the conspiracy theorists would be against.
Instead of those harsh restrictions, or just pretending that Covid isn’t a problem like the conspiracy theorists, I think the mass vaccination was a good middle ground. Do you really want to experience all the masks, movement restrictions, testing, isolation again for another couple of years until an omicron stopping vaccine is found?
