Voted the most livable city in the world, Melbourne, Australia explodes against COVID Mandates on Tuesday.
Melbourne, Australia was the site of protests earlier today but for the past seven years was rated the most livable city in the world. But earlier today exploded with protests against COVID mandates.
Thousands of residents in Melbourne, Australia protested against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and lockdowns over the weekend and into Monday and Tuesday. Large crowds have been captured on video demonstrating, clashing with police and even chasing away police vehicles.
Melbourne, which is in the Australian state of Victoria, has strict lockdown measures in place that require people to stay home unless shopping for essential goods and services, caregiving, authorized work by permit, exercise or limited outdoor interactions in limited groups. Melbourne is Australia’s second-most-populous city.
The police were attacked by a mob of angry citizens upset with insane COVID mandates.
