ASIA PACIFIC TODAY. Friday, February 19, 2021. Politician Craig Kelly speaks out on early covid treatment censorship.

Things get curiouser and curiouser. Despite more than 12 months of the pandemic and the availability of a vaccine, the future appears no brighter and Government overreach has intensified.

State such as Victoria still can't prevent Covid19 outbreaks in quarantine without imposing widespread lockdowns, while border restrictions follow in neighbouring states. Despite their ruinous consequences, governments have not justified such policies on scientific grounds. Worse still, they foment fear with warnings of new, more infectious strains and stories of the virus in wastewater systems.

One question amongst many big questions is why there is no early treatment of Covid19 in Australia? Why are responsible Parliamentarians, eminent immunologists and medical practitioners being censored, bullied or threatened for talking about drugs that are used successfully in other countries to fight Covid19? Even with a vaccine, isn’t effective early treatment still essential?

Can we be confident that Governments are acting in our interests? Is State Censorship now a way of Pandemic Life? What is the role of the media and are they acting as chief censors or reporters of scientific fact? And are we being prepared for mandatory vaccinations with a new vaccine?

Today our special guest is Craig Kelly MP.

Craig Kelly MP represents the Federal electorate of Hughes, in New South Wales, and the Liberal Party of Australia. In government, Craig has been appointed to key posts including serving on the House Economics Committee and the Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade, as well as Chairing the Parliamentary Committee on Law Enforcement.

In the United States, there is much uncertainty following the election of Joe Biden as President. Many new and controversial policies have been imposed through Executive Order, while Congress has been fixated with Impeachment Proceedings and political theatre. Small business has been devastated by sweeping lockdowns in some states. In this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes, said Benjamin Franklin.

There has been talk of both long-term and short-term capital gains being taxed at very high Federal Rates by the Biden administration.

Blake Christian, a partner at Holthouse, Carlin & Van Tright joins us to discuss Biden's tax hikes and the impact on investment.

And as Facebook bullies Australia, Project Veritas released a new video exposing Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s contradictory position when it comes to COVID-19 vaccines.
