Tom's Blog on Life and Livingness
Ths sooner we as a people wake to the fact that these are NOT representatives of the people but a bunch of crooks and bums passing themselves off as something they are not while scamming the public purse for all they can get while in office and as pensions, the sooner we will ditch Liberal and Labor and vote into power those who will represent their constituents.
The older you get, the more real is this!
I get confused when I hear the word “Service”.
Like with…
The Internal Revenue ‘Service’
The Postal ‘Service’
The Telephone ‘Service’
The Cable TV ‘Service’
The Civil ‘Service’
Public ‘Service’
Customer ‘Service’
Those are NOT what I thought ‘Service’ meant.
But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had bought a bull to ‘Service’ his cows. Wow!! Suddenly my list made perfect sense!!
Isn’t life great when you understand it. đ
Elaborating on the effective methods being followed for treating COVID-19 across the globe, Shashikanth Manikappa, a specialist cardiac anaesthetist working at Monash Health in Melbourne, Australia, has strongly advised what he termed Quadruple Therapy involving four medicines â Ivermectin, Doxycycline, Zinc and Vitamin D3 â as a preventive as well as treating method.
Addressing a media conference in Kalaburagi on Monday, the senior doctor said that the use of Ivermectin would be more effective than that of Hydroxychloroquine which was widely being used worldwide, right from the outbreak of the pandemic.
Referring to a pre-official release of a randomised controlled trial using Ivermectin in three doses in primary contacts of COVID-19, Dr. Manikappa said that 93 % of primary contacts who received Ivermectin did not develop any symptoms and 58 % of primary contacts who did not receive Ivermectin did progress to have symptoms of the pandemic.
âQuadruple Therapy includes Ivermectin 12 mg one dose, Doxycycline 100 mg once a day for four days, Zinc 50 mg once a day for four days and Vitamin D3 once a week. Ivermectin, Doxycycline and Zinc are to be repeated every 14 days and Vitamin D3 every week with blood levels monitored. The synergistic effect of these medicine acts to prevent viral multiplication and also stop the virus from entering human cells. Thomas Borody, an Australian gastroenterologist who is known for curing peptic ulcers with triple antibiotic therapy, has revealed that one block in South America that received Ivermectin combination prophylaxis did not contract coronavirus infection while others did,â he said.
On the side effects, Dr. Manikappa said that Ivermectin was being used in 3.7 billion people for intestinal parasites and was found to be safe. âThese are not new medicine. They are already in use for treating different ailments and are found to be safe. They can be prescribed by any doctor to control the pandemic,â he said.

If someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 commits suicide, the Ontario Ministry of Health will record their cause of death as COVID-19.
âIndividuals who have died with COVID-19, but not as a result of COVID-19 are included in the case counts for COVID-19 deaths in Toronto.â

Tom: They should more correctly be counted as victims of gevernment incompetence or malfeasance! There are now over 10,000 medicos collectively voicing their disagreement with governemt lockdowns and the like.
The harm done to the health and welfare of individuals and the business and lives destroyed are unequalled in history. And the rich keep getting richer by the gubernatorial decree!
It is well past time we overwhelmed the comm lines of the legislators with our requirement that they act in OUR best interests, not of their principal donors’ interests.
If you have not already done so, drop an email to your county or state legislators and governor and let them know how you stand.
If you feel as do I, forward this post on your comm lines and let’s get very active in creating the civilisation we desire!
If you take the attitude that nothing will change unless you personally change it you will be more right than wrong, I can assure you!
(I’m sure the B is missing and they meant to warn of blizzards but let’s have some fun with this…)
After COVID and murder hornets you now have lizzards?
Well, you can come down here if you like.
Just watch out for the sting rays, great white sharks, blue-ringed octopus, box jelly-fish, funnel web and redback spiders, coastal Taipan and inland Taipan, red-bellied black, death adder, Tiger, Eastern brown, Mulga, small eyed and copperhead snakes.
Oh, and let’s not forget the boxing kangaroos and drop bears.
Dang! Nearly forgot to warn you about the swooping magpies too!
What might CS Lewis say of our new COVID situation? Hereâs what incredibly sane advice he gave in 1948 about the mental shift required in living with the threat of the atomic bomb.
âIn one way we think a great deal too much of the atomic bomb. âHow are we to live in an atomic age?â I am tempted to reply: âWhy, as you would have lived in the sixteenth century when the plague visited London almost every year, or as you would have lived in a Viking age when raiders from Scandinavia might land and cut your throat any night; or indeed, as you are already living in an age of cancer, an age of syphilis, an age of paralysis, an age of air raids, an age of railway accidents, an age of motor accidents.â
âIn other words, do not let us begin by exaggerating the novelty of our situation. Believe me, dear sir or madam, you and all whom you love were already sentenced to death before the atomic bomb was invented: and quite a high percentage of us were going to die in unpleasant ways. We had, indeed, one very great advantage over our ancestorsâanesthetics; but we have that still. It is perfectly ridiculous to go about whimpering and drawing long faces because the scientists have added one more chance of painful and premature death to a world which already bristled with such chances and in which death itself was not a chance at all, but a certainty.
âThis is the first point to be made: and the first action to be taken is to pull ourselves together. If we are all going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb when it comes find us doing sensible and human thingsâpraying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of dartsânot huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs. They may break our bodies (a microbe can do that) but they need not dominate our minds.â

This was on my radar many years ago.
Just because the government is saying they wonât mandate this, this doesnât give anyone you work for the right to make you choose your health over your work.
This is discrimination and a complete violation of your rights.
Iâm not telling anyone what they should and should not do with their own health and bodies.
Nobody has that right.
I am constantly hearing from PROFESSIONALS who are saying they are going to look at other work, away from what they love and where their passions lay, just so they can avoid being coerced into this, even if only for a little while longer.
My inbox is FULL of private messages from people who want the right to choose even if this means they may never see their loved ones again
My voicemail has messages from others concerned about the DIRECTION of all of this
Do you have the ears to hear that message?
I ask you all, no matter where your beliefs lay.
Send a message to your MPs, your union, to the papers, to anyone in a position to create change
Stand up for each other and say no NOW.
When Informed Medical Options Party QLD – IMOP stood 31 candidates covering 1/3 of the state at the QLD election in 2020, that was a pretty big message. A million Queenslanders had an opportunity to learn about our message.
However the message needs to be delivered by all of YOU reading this. We have an Australian population of 25 million. That’s a lot of voices to be heard.
I love chatting to all of you who are concerned about what YOUR HEALTH CHOICES will mean in the future, however the power doesn’t lay with me or the 30 other candidates.
The power is in you!
As John Farnham sang back in September 1986, YOU’RE THE VOICE!

Jimmy Jam’s take:
(Preamble: This is not an anti-vaccine post, it’s a Pro-Choice post. Please understand this distinction).
In the famous voice of Jack Nicholson:
If you believe you need protection from covid 19, then YOU get vaccinated.. I donât have to vaccinate to protect you.
And no, as an employer, I’m not going to force my staff to get vaccinated either. That’s their personal health choice, not mine.
I’m not their doctor or personal practitioner, and neither is the government. That’s up to my staff if they feel at risk. That is their personal responsibility, like all other health decisions they make including the food they eat (healthy or junk) and the pills they take.
I will not force them to do something against their will, or have possible harm or damage caused by this untested vaccine, or any in fact.. They are not guinea pigs, and if you want to look at senior law and know & understand the Nuremberg Code, the UN Universal Declaration Of Human Rights and the Constitution, you will see that this is a direct violation of these.
I’m not going to accept the government pass the buck down the line in being sued for resulting damages caused by these untested and fast tracked vaccines that the government is trying to force my hand to mandate. They don’t rule or dictate the personal health choices of my staff, and neither do I. Personal health choices have no place in OHS law (if implemented). I will only continue to make my work environment as safe and accommodating as I possibly can for all accordingly.
This is not Communist China.
If a customer is concerned about why my staff are not vaccinated (as if they would or wouldn’t know anyway as it’s none of their business), my response is that they do not need to, just to protect you… If you as a customer feel at risk, then YOU get vaccinated, since it appears to protect you from those who aren’t. And again, that’s your choice.
Fortunately, we being Australian, I see most don’t give a rats arse about it and go about their business as usual.
And yes, I ordered the CODE RED… (movie excerpt – A Few Good Men)
