There's no way the govt will reach 80% vaxxed. The push back is too strong. The TV tells too many lies. Even if they did reach 80%, they'll just shift the goal posts to 90%. Then a new variant sets it all back to 0%. That's the pattern of this massive hoax. Triggerfish, Portsmith

Here's a way for the tourism industry leaders to get themselves back to work (CP, 09/09). Run an ad campaign correctly stating that the pandemic is over because Professor Borody found a quick, cheap cure for COVID-19. State "Any politician who denies this truth is a dangerous idiot" and "Take back your old normal, resist the fascists taking over our governments, they can't arrest us all." Then offer all police free Reef and Outback holidays if they take them immediately. Chloe, Kuranda

Cairns Council (CP 9/9) has a long history of using ratepayers money to fix their bureaucrats errors. This is unjustifiable. I'd prefer the staff that stuffed up be sacked and sued for the cost of their errors. It'd make them less trigger-happy. Ratepayer, Cairns

The Chinese-controlled UN wants Australia to not use 95 per cent of our coal. Of course they'd say that. They want it preserved for when China openly takes Australia as a vassal state. Higgs, Tolga

The biggest problem with ScoMo's flight from Canberra to Sydney to see his dad was the plane. All that carbon spewed into the air when the trip could have been done in an electric car. Greenie, Yorkeys Knob

Ratepayer, Cairns (9/9). So you're saying different standards should apply to women than men? What a misogynistic position. The Suffragettes died in vain. How dare you. Feminist, Cairns

The world's left-wing public figures unanimously supported the idea we're in a deadly pandemic from the beginning. Now, nearly two years lived reality later, we've experienced nothing remotely like a deadly pandemic. The further the dramatic narrative drifts from the ordinary reality the more certain you can be that the pandemic is a left-wing psy-op. Mr Ed, Peeramon

"On this day" CP, 9/9 - 1948 - "Communists proclaim Democratic People's Republic of North Korea." Same land, same people, same language as South Korea. The ultimate real-life 73-year comparison of communism versus capitalism. Now, which system had the best outcome? Hmm? Analyst, Cairns

The accelerating spread of covid means masks, sanitiser, distancing, check-ins and lockdowns have not worked. The Diamond Princess case study shows that 0.1 per cent of elderly or terminally ill Australians could die a few weeks earlier than they would otherwise. Was that worth taking almost two years of normal childhood off 100 per cent of Australian children? Angry Mother, Brinsmead

White House press secretary Jen Psaki used the word "plandemic" instead of "pandemic" at a recent media briefing. When a word slips out like that you can sure it's being used in the back room. C'mon Aussie media - expose the plandemic. You know you want to and it must be hell keeping your journalists' instincts suppressed. Clive, Cairns North

Thursday was RUOK Day. How ironic. Many, many of us R not OK. Why? Because the Nannystate had a crack at keeping us safe. I'd rather leave it up to my immune system to keep me safe from viruses. The government's safety remit should be limited to external threats - such as the Chinese military. Estelle, Gordonvale

At a time when we've facilitated more women into leadership positions than ever before we're closer to losing our freedom entirely than ever before. Coincidence? Yeah, nah... Woz, Parramatta Park

When Germany built the concentration camps, they started off calling them re-education camps. Annastasi Palaszczitler is starting off calling hers quarantine camps. It's always nice to have a point of difference, to avoid claims of plagiarism. Mark W. Redlynch

(p)Resident Biden owns 10 percent of Chinese lithium battery company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. that now has access to Afghanistan's vast lithium deposits. Why hasn't Biden been impeached yet? Republican, Cairns

Allen Small (9/9), if masks work, why bother distancing? If distancing works, why bother masking? If both together do work, why have lockdowns? If lockdowns work, why has there been more than one? Yeah, they're old questions, but why don't they ever get answered? Frida, Redlynch

If you're wondering why it's unseasonably cold and windy for this time of year, it's because of a low in the solar cycle and a reduction in Earth's electromagnetic shield. That causes waves in the polar jetstreams - which pushes strong cold wind further north than usual. Like all climate change, it has nothing whatsoever to do with any trace gases. Noel, Bayview

(CP 9/9) Look, can we please be honest about Australia's ancient history? The First people were the Negritos. The Second people were the Murraysians. The current indigenous population are the Third people - the Carpentarians. The Fourth people are Caucasians from Europe. But now the Third and Fourth people are simply Australians and nobody deserves money solely due to their racial heritage. History Guy, Freshwater

Viv (CP 9/9) most aged care staff are old enough to remember "my body, my choice" is backed up by the Nuremberg Code and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Leticia, Westcourt

Now that we're close to two years into the pandemic, could we please have a full and final list of exactly who is exempt from the rules, particularly the border-crossing rules? If it's based on science that should be easy - it will be in their notes. Stefano, Mossman

593 days since Greg Hunt announced the first case of the deadly infectious pandemic had been found in the community in Sydney, still no piles of dead homeless in the streets - anywhere on earth. Stevo, Cairns

And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen; China, the world's biggest polluter by a very large margin, is going to do precisely nothing to clean itself up (CP, 9/9). Everything we do is completely pointless and is just wasting our national treasure. Anyone who wants to "fight global warming" has only one effective strategy - boycott everything that comes from China. No other strategy has any value at all. You'll find it impossible, so good luck trying. It's time we switched our focus to cheap, reliable energy, hardening our infrastructure, and national resilience projects (including defence). Jennifer, Edge Hill

How odd. The PCR test can't different between covid19 and the Delta variant. Doing so requires genomic testing - but we're not doing it. So where are the Delta figures coming from? Thin air? Gabriella, Mt Sheridan

A-ha-ha-hah! Left-wing US media are having conniption fits that fat Joe Rogan cured his Covid at home in three days with Ivermectin while fit Oscar De La Hoya was flattened by Covid, spent three days in hospital getting ineffective treatments and won't be fit to fight for an extended period. Fight Fan, Edge Hill

Ha - exactly as I predicted in Wednesday's paper, the media has come out sabotaging the United Australia Party - saying that sending a text linking to the Therapeutic Goods Administration is "misinformation," for goodness' sake. Tanya, Malanda

The CP Editor (9/9) asked for feedback on the website. Here's mine. Once you stop printing on paper you'll be competing with every other website in the world. Many of them don't slant their content to suit the agendas of third parties - such as PMs, Premiers and CHOs. The Cairns Post will go broke at that point if it is still woke. Joanne, Manunda

Anyone who thinks Australia can get by without mining has rocks in their head. BHP (CP, 09/09) injected $34.1 billion into the economy last financial year - that is, they turned minerals that benefit nobody if left underground into cash for governments to pay nurses and build roads. "Green" schemes can't do that. Darryl, Westcourt
