Cattle, sheep and other livestock are going to die because of the F&MD decision (it has already jumped the border, because Labor ignored this advice). Very possibly people, too. And it will devastate the already fragile economy.
As for the Construction Watchdog? People are going to die, from that, directly. Like they did last time the ALP was in power, and did shit like this to appease their Union mates... Pink batts, anyone???!
Shit in that industry was already fucked, long before this, due, largely, to the influence of China, and the import of cheap labour (ha!) from Asia, substandard construction, jobs for the boys (which this only accellerates), dubious government contracts (generally at a state level), etc...
Fuck, the next few years over here are going to be absolutely wild, and not in a good way, either...
It's a fucking livestock disease, which spreads very easily, and will devastate the industry, and may actually kill people.
Do you actually... Not know about the outbreak of this shit in the 90s, in Europe and the UK..? Really??
This is NOT Covid. It isn't something they just... "Made up" (or at least, not recently)...
There's a fucking massive outbreak in Bali, so until we know more, umm, yes..?
You can't possibly be so black and white as to suggest this is anything like Covid or Monkeypox, if that's your implication.
Come on. Things are not that simple, my dude...
Edit: I actually possibly underemphasised this. If this shit gets out, in Australia, they will slaughter potentially millions of animals, infected or not, for no reason.
That is, obviously, in and of itself, completely immoral (I would actually go with pretty evil), but it will also lead to chronic meat shortages, even beyond Australia's borders, potentially for years...
The (flow on) consequences of that...? Are enormous...
This ain't lockdowns, mate. I cannot possibly overstate that YES, I DO (temporarily) SUPPORT BANNING FLIGHTS TO AND FROM THERE, for good reason. Because we know how this spreads, how easily, and what the consequences will be.
This has happened before, and it probably will again. Australia is an island country. Tourism and "waaacism"/"discwimation" be damned. This is far more fucking important. There is no reason to let this shit in, if it can possibly be avoided...

wait, are you pro banning flights to Bali over a stupid disease ?
Temporarily, uhh, yes?

they WANT an outbreak. they WANT to destroy the food supply.
Ok, since you're not OP and not that unhinged, can you explain how banning HUMAN flights prevents a LIVESTOCK epidemic ?
