Yes, some of us knew this a long time ago, but the mainstream media and our politicians are still silent!

That's if 'natural SARS-CoV-2' wasn't in fact a bio-weapon.
This 'juror' is still 'out' until SARS=CoV-2 is unequivocally one way or the other.

And if your loved one died of Covid and a vaccine - which would have reduced the chance of that happening - had been available, but denied you, how would you react then?

The problem is, in order to acquire natural immunity you first need to become infected. And that comes with the risk of becoming seriously ill and dying. Vaccination reduces that risk (and the risk of hospitals becoming overwhelmed if too many people become seriously ill at the same time).
The other problem is that we don't know why some people become seriously ill after being infected with Covid, whilst others have no symptoms at all. So we don't know who needs the vaccine and who does not. Thus, the safer option is/was to vaccinate as many as possible.

Someone asked via the freedom of information:
Do you know what the average age of a covid death was?

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, there were 1,122 deaths due to COVID-19 registered in 2021
According to the Department of Health and Aged Care, there were no influenza-associated deaths notified in 2021

*institute of health and welfare has no stats on flu deaths for 21, i'm shocked...
......

The same pattern was seen in the US and other developed nations. This is because Covid was about twice as contagious as seasonal flu, for a number of reasons. That means it was much easier to spread Covid than the flu. All the actions taken to reduce the spread of airborne respiratory diseases, such as hand washing, social distancing, and mask wearing would only slow down the spread of Covid but would pretty much stop seasonal flu.
Thanks for engaging your brain.
