This is a total embarrassment - I feel ashamed. Australians pride themselves on being a laid-back country with a fair go for all. With high vaccinated levels - close to 90% why then are they so frightened of one person who says he has had covid and has acquired natural immunity? There is no respect for natural immunity. They can't see past the vaccines.

In fact, many complained that until recently, they were held captive in Australia....

Yep I was only able to get out last January due to two passports. But even then another month might have trapped me, depending on who was checking passports at the border.

I don't know much about Oz totalitarian life, even though I have relations there; they don't get out much to tell me any stories. But I have an anecdote told to me yesterday; that an Aussie visiting her parents in NZ six months ago was not allowed to return and has in the meantime given birth, which she had hoped to have done in Oz. Does this sound like the situation?

Well there were a few charters to Queensland from Christchurch recently mostly for Australians trapped here. And double jabbed is a requirement to get into Australia these days although there are exceptions too.

Have you got a listening device around here somewhere, Barry? I'm sure I heard my (Victorian) wife say the same thing a few minutes ago.
