   ABC sends out a search party to find a reverse mandate story

   Raf Epstein in a fairly typical example of the dedication of journos at TheirABC to getting the truth out there:

   In October of this year, ABC Radio Melbourne Drive presenter Raf Epstein twice sent out condescending tweets about the number of COVID cases and deaths in 2021, comparing New South Wales unfavourably to Victoria. This was previously covered in MWD Issue 565, where it was noted that Comrade Epstein had stopped updating his Twitter followers once the number of new cases and deaths in Victoria had begun to greatly exceed those seen in NSW. Evidently, once this comparison stopped being favourable to the Victorian Labor government, Raf Epstein lost interest in it.

   Since the last time MWD checked in on Raf, the Daniel Andrews government’s favourite radio host has still not updated his Twitter followers on how the NSW-Victorian 2021 comparison has evolved. Here is how it stands today:

   NSW 2021 cases: around 80,000
   Victoria 2021 cases: around 113,000
   NSW 2021 deaths: 580
   Victoria 2021 deaths: 588

   As Raf once smugly noted, comparisons are useful.

   Good. Glad she was sacked.

   It’s ridiculous, like having a doctor covered in tatts and piercings.

   Supervised an exam for nursing students years ago. One of the candidates was both grossly obese and heavily tattooed. I wonder was she ever hired?

   Haha yes, plenty of slobby smoking nurses about.

   Meanwhile in the USA Moderna pulls out of attending a health care conference due to coronavirus fears…

   I am starting to think that Byron Bay is full of freaks and weirdos.

   Why don’t they have normal names like Mary Jones, everyone seems to be called Tranquility, Moonbeam or De’Ongoo or similar.

   I am very glad it is thousands of kilometres from my place.
