Watched a few videos and read some stuff over the weekend.
It appears that wearing masks prolongs the epidemic in the region in question.
The virus must be allowed to spread into the population, and that population will gain
immunity very quickly. Examples: New York and Sweden..
Basically deaths and the rate of infection has come down dramatically in both.
Many European cities are a good example too.

Trying to fight the virus with restrictions and masks etc - like in Aust. - just draws out the inevitable

Most people are naturally immune to the virus. For eg anyone under 16 is immune and children
have almost 0 chance of transmitting the virus. For age ranges above this a large proportion
will be asymptomatic, which is like being immune naturally anyway.
It appears the virus, once it reaches a certain percent of the population, stops spreading (or maybe weakens?)

Australlia is taking the wrong approach and is not looking at all the evidence from around the world.

"anyone under 16 is immune"
Not according to the latest reports.

"New York as an example"
The example I see is reflected in the massive number of new graves. An example I wish Australia to avoid.
