A politician suggested that injecting disinfectant into people might be a solution against COVID-19.
Yep, the COVID-19 won't kill you because the injection might (according to the Australian Chief Medical Officer when asked about this). Nice to know who is the expert in these areas.
I’m sure if you followed those ‘instructions’, you would never be worried by Covid 19 again...

That politician is a complete twonk, oh, hang on It's Trump, no surprise there then. I'm praying he suggests Mercury could cure the plague, ancient physicians and apothecaries were indeed correct. I just happen to have a litre bottle full of the stuff at home, sat in a cupboard.............. Cha Ching!

The article is a bit vague. The cell phone towers were set on fire because...? Or is that related to the video on the same page where people believe that 5G causes COVID?

Exactly so, Mr. Wilhelm. This isn't the only time this has happened, either. Scared, stupid people have been doing this in various places, frequently where there is no excuse for a third grader falling for this quack.

Scared, stupid people have been doing this in various places, frequently where there is no excuse for a third grader falling for this quack. Today, I'm very depressed about this. I have a mix of a Gah! and WRF! complaint related to Covid-iocy. I just came back from work and I had a terrible day, but I kind of want people to read what kind of things, we who are essential have to endure. If what I write in the Covid-19 thread in a few minutes makes anyopne be ashamed or think twice, then it would be a productive thing.

Same here - two towers set on fire, and one very strange person at a friends COPD clinic saying the the 5G & 5G phones are a government plot to give everyone the virus. The fact that 5G phones have been available for a little while is, apparently, irrelevant!

Haven't people read /watched "The Andromeda Strain"? The virus could be an extraterrestrial plot to take over the world, you know?

One of the morons who did a bulk buy - 1400, yes, 1400 - large quantity packs of toilet paper, from different supermarkets, has been trying to get refunds for his purchases from said supermarkets - they laughed in his face! The man is threatening to sue!

Does Australia recognize the tort of Vexatious Litigation? He might just end up on the hook for even more than he's already spent!

Yes, there are Vexatious Litigation Acts for each state and territory. I don't think it will get anywhere near a court! All that has happened so far is that the idiot has been laughed out of every establishment where he has tried it on.

Another term for it is profiteering. It's called "price-gouging" in the States, and it may be deemed illegal during times of an officially declared national emergency. Its illegality is declared/enacted on a state-by-state basis; i.e either the governor of a state has to issue an an executive order, or a state already has laws in place that address it in defined situations. To my knowledge laws/orders against price gouging have always been enacted in every state during national emergencies. Now, whether or not merchants and/or individuals pay any attention to the law is an entirely different matter. As some wag once said about flouting laws, "It's illegal only if you get caught. "
