Potentially a more legitimate business than the Peter Jackson Search for a Champion.

So who potentially might end up missing from the end of the season now that there's a vaccine mandate.

Two VERY strong antivax WAGs in the field, at least.

Renee Winterbottom and Tahan both seem to be all the way down the qanon rabbit hole including apparently appearing at protests with baby in tow.

Dave R well known for his conspiracy theories and Frosty was caught teeing off about masks this year...

No jab, no race. Simple.

It's bullshit. Supercars, and the Government don't have the ability or the authority to dictate personal health choices. Workcover has already made a ruling as such. So everyone ( companies etc ) making these "no needle , no job" "mandates" is risking a lot if someone decides to challenge them.

The Victorian Guvment does not go along with that idea.

If you believe the Vic Government then you deserve what you get.

In the very article you linked to, "The World Health Organisation does not support vaccine mandates...."

People need to pull their head out of the sand, do their own research into what these "vaccines" are doing to people, actually check the REAL numbers of what's happening around the world, and listen to the proper health experts, not some Government-appointed health advisor. There is no vaccine for a start, if you don't believe me go and look up the definition of the word vaccine, and make sure it's the proper definition, not the one the US CDC changed it to a couple of months ago to suit their agenda.

If you've had the needle, so you're "protected". So why are you so scared of other people not taking the needle? Seems like it's a case of the protected need protecting from the unprotected, by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that isn't protecting the protected. Either that, or cognitive dissonance is setting it, and it's hard to admit to yourself that you made a stupid decision to take a totally unproven and untested experimental drug, so you jump on the "vaccine" bandwagon to make yourself feel better about your poor decision.

I'm not an anti-vaxer, I am vaccinated for everything under the sun, but I won't be taking any unproven and untested experimental drug on the Government's whim. Once the required standard testing has been completed ( including the standard long term trials every drug ever made has had to pass before it was released to the general public ), then I'll think about it.

Really I don't care if you get the needle or not, just don't try and force or coerce other people to, because then there will be trouble.

Supercars is a private entity and can do as it chooses. And the Government absolutely does have the right to do that, no matter how many lawsuits Clive Palmer funds.

Shouldn't go down this rabbit hole, but...

WorkSafe Victoria today approved the SPC mandate.

Over 6.3 billion vaccinations given world wide now. Plenty of evidence the vaccine works.

Come on, only HALF THE WORLD has been vaccinated and nobody grew 2 heads yet.

Despite what my auntie's uncle's pet dog's walkers nurse said she saw.

Is The Lancet 'proper' enough?

'Vaccine effectiveness against deaths was estimated to be 98·1% at 14 days or longer after the second dose and 77·0·% at 14–21 days after the first dose (in contrast to 96·7% at 7 days or longer after the second dose).'

If it has enough fact based evidence, which that article seems to have, then it's definitely proper enough

Fact is there is more than enough evidence vaccines work, most people who go into hospital with Covid now are the unvaccinated. And it's been used long enough, so the excuse that it's 'not been proven' now carries very little weight if at all
