"From Friday September 9, the isolation requirements for people with COVID and
no symptoms will be cut from seven days to five days. Masks will no longer be
required on domestic flights.
While Australian Medical Association President Steve Robson called for the
release of the science behind the National Cabinet decision, the change shows
we are now rapidly pushing towards a “business-as-usual” pandemic. This
political strategy requires the elimination of protections or restrictions, so
that life and business can go “back to normal”.
But life is nowhere near normal. COVID is the third most common killer of
Australians, with 11,746 deaths so far this year. And there is mounting
evidence survivors of COVID face the risk of long-term health effects on the
lungs, heart, brain and immune system.
In reality, there is no going back to normal now we are living with COVID."
