What are non-derogable rights?

Rights may also be characterised as derogable or non-derogable. Article 4 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) provides for a derogation power, which allows governments to temporarily suspend the application of some rights in the exceptional circumstance of a 'state of emergency' and subject to certain conditions, including official notification. Recourse to the derogations regime is rare. To date, Australia has not exercised its derogation power under Article 4 of the ICCPR.
Certain rights, however, are non-derogable, that is, they cannot be suspended even in a state of emergency. Article 4(2) of the ICCPR provides that no derogation is permitted for:
right to life (art 6)
freedom from torture or cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment; and freedom from medical or scientific experimentation without consent (art 7)
freedom from slavery and servitude (arts 8(1) and (2))
freedom from imprisonment for inability to fulfil a contractual obligation (art 11)
prohibition against the retrospective operation of criminal laws (art 15)
right to recognition before the law (art 16)
freedom of thought, conscience and religion (art 18).
In addition, the Human Rights Committee has identified other ICCPR rights that it considers cannot be made subject to lawful derogation under article 4 of the ICCPR. For further information see UN Human Rights Committee General Comment No 29- external site.

Problem is Federal and State Governments in Australia have decided that these laws no longer apply in Australia and the installation of tyranny is in progress while most of the population submit their bodies to a dangerous and deadly poison in the vain hope that life just goes back to "normal"
