I wonder how long we have to keep doing this for?

It will probably be for the next 12 months, at least.

I've gotten into a 'routine' with my mobile phone now... because it is prepaid and I have no monthly data allowance I have to turn mobile data on, sign in with the SafeWA app and then turn mobile data off again otherwise my prepaid credit will slowly drop down to zero because of all the Android apps (Google, etc.) that want to update themselves as soon as they "see" an internet connection (even though I've tried to restrict their data use as much as possible).

Practice makes perfect, as they say.

Hmm, I already have the CovidSAFE and SafeWA apps on my phone and here in WA you are required to sign in with the SafeWA app (or use pen and paper if you don't have a smartphone) at every single business you go to these days.

Now we are going to have yet another government app on our phones (or paper equivalent) which will no doubt be required to go almost anywhere outside your home eventually.

For some reason, this keeps coming to mind:

Your papers, please

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_papers,_please

Quote:

"Your papers, please" (or "Papers, please") is an expression or trope associated with police state functionaries, allegedly popularized in Hollywood movies featuring Nazi Party officials demanding identification from citizens during random stops or at checkpoints. It is a cultural metaphor for life in a police state.

I'm also curious about the incredible speed that these COVID apps, etc. have been set up by governments - both State and Federal yet when it comes to things like helping the homeless and the unemployed they move at their regular snails pace (if they even move at all).

In Melbourne... any entry to a place requires that time to “sign in” with mobile phone over the security code... those that don’t have a smart phone are asked to write their details in a book.

I wonder how long we have to keep doing this for?

In QLD, in larger venues - actual printed sign in is no longer acceptable ........ you have to sign in electronically.

Either by smart phone or the establishment has to provide a "tablet"(ipad etc) & have someone on the door to instruct or perform the sign in for those not tech savvy/elderly.

Using the camera on a smart phone takes seconds.

Anti-vaxxer conspiracy theory 101

There are many things you need to do as a qualification for employment.

Conspiracy theory?

How Undecided

So what if having the jab is a condition of employment?

So are many other requirements.

Is that a breach of your civil liberties?

Is it part of mass control?

That's what I think WW is saying in reference to it.

True, but once you get the vax, you could delet ethe app

No. the app is to prove you got the vax

I love the rationality here. I don't like the idea of being microchipped because they can track me, but I'm happy to use my computer, mobile phone, credit card even though those items can track me

It will not go away untill we fight back.

Because the vaccine only lasts a few months that is protection. So will we have to take this jab every 3 or 4 months. https://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1614028904

If the jab protects you over winter the worst danger is past. Just socially distance and wear masks etc at tbe supermarket, etc.

I’ve noticed now..as I go out and about.... that many are not wearing masks anymore...it seems a choice now... no one is batting an eyelid about it.
I read on the government site that it’s still to be worn in shopping centres, public transport, hospitals, and crowded areas where social distancing can’t be done... yet... at a restaurant recently, waiting in line with a herd of other people all close together (aka not 1.5 m apart)... hubby and I were the only ones wearing masks.
It’s becoming confusing and people are becoming complacent.
I will keep choosing to wear a mask...
Because one thing was clear... last year, during lockdown, social distancing, mandatory masks, and lots of hygiene solutions on hand... I never caught a cold, sniffle, flu, and that’s a miracle for me as every year I always seem to get the flu!
Even though I fight it off good and it’s duration is shorter than average, it still knocks me about feeling like crap.

So if I continue to wear a mask in public...and use hand sanitizer ... this year... I want to see if I can avoid a cold or flu/sore throat etc.

To be continued....
