The Miscontrol of the COVID-19 Narrative in Fiji and Elsewhere.
Fiji's Minister of Health came out swinging earlier this week and in a FBC article castigated the media industry for allowing some Doctors to publicly comment on the much hyped vaccination drive in Fiji. The Minister essentially called for a tyrannical styled censorship of any person not following the 'party line' on vaccination and its effects: short, medium and long term on human health. 
One such person that fits the description alluded to by Minister Waqanibete, would be his former work mate, Dr. Jone Hawea, a skilled surgeon who also has a significant media presence and attracted much more recently when he publicly spoke out against the Fiji Government nascent regulations of "No Jab, No Job".
These sentiments of speaking truth to power, demonstrated by Dr. Havea have won many admirers among the silent majority in Fiji, cognizant of cold hard facts steeped in Science, which has long been obfuscated in the political discourse in Fiji, particularly surrounding the due diligence of consultation and informed consent; priort to vaccination.
The global COVID 19 vaccination drive appears to be a carefully, coordinated and crafted campaign that has been designed by World Health Organization (WHO) and it's compatriot organisation, Global Alliance for Vaccination and Immunization (GAVI) which also based in Geneva, Switzerland.
The information war on COVID-19 is examined, through the lens of Propaganda, outlined in Asia Pacific Today posted below.
Minister Waqanibete was forced to condemn comments made by two doctors (without specifically naming them) that have considerable following on social media and have spoken out against the COVID19 vaccination.
Dr. Hawea continues to appear in The Fiji Times, highlighting significant shortcomings and misrepresentations, as a recent article about the transmission of COVID19, Dr. Havea outlined that according to a study, it shows that vaccinated people are capable of spreading the virus, as much as unvacinated persons, citing a CDC study in Massachusetts.
Dr. Havea's remarks, rang alarm bells, much to the trepidation to those Health bureaucrats located at Dinem House, Amy street, Toorak, as the CDC study contradicted and undermined the very objectives of "No Jab, No Job" regulations im Fiji.
It's no secret that many Medical Professionals in Fiji are scared of speaking out.
Dr. Hawea's truth telling persona is similar to American Frontline Doctors and New Zealand Doctors Speaking Out With Science.
There is much to be thankful from these Doctors who have courageously stood by their moral ethics and their Hippocratic oath. It's also a lesson in integrity that the Medical Bureaucracy at W.H.O and Fiji have sold for 30 pieces of Silver.
Undoubtedly, there is a groundswell support of people who are united in their opposition to Government overreach into mandating COVID-19 vaccination and other authoritarian and despotic control of people's lives.
There is a Zeitgeist of public frustration and a gnawing rage in the fabric of society, angry at their Governments who appear to be doing the bidding of a hidden group of people. France has been protesting the proposed vaccination passport and there are more countries joining.

Fiji: Stop Attempts to Silence the Political Opposition.
The police harassment of opposition politicians for their criticism of the land law amendments highlights the restrictive space for civic freedoms in Fiji, said global civil society alliance CIVICUS today.
The authorities must halt such actions immediately and respect the right to freedom of expression.
According to reports, nine prominent opposition politicians were arrested and questioned in Fiji for voicing concerns about a contentious land bill.
Six members of parliament and three other high-profile politicians were taken into custody by the criminal investigations department on 25 and 26 July in relation to comments they had made regarding proposed amendments to a land bill.
They were subsequently released.
The nine are Viliame Gavoka, the leader of the opposition Social Democratic Liberal party (Sodelpa) party; the opposition whip Lynda Tabuya; the MPs Adi Litia Qionibaravi and Ro Filipe Tuisawau; Biman Prasad, the leader of the National Federation party; the NFP president, Pio Tikoduadua; the former prime ministers Sitiveni Rabuka and Mahendra Chaudhry; and the Unity Fiji leader, Savenaca Narube.
“This intimidation of opposition lawmakers and politicians just for their criticism of the land bill amendments must end.
It is a blatant attack on their rights to peaceful expression and association.
Everyone, including the political opposition, have a legitimate right to take part in public affairs and should not be silenced just because the authorities don’t like it,” said Josef Benedict, CIVICUS’s Asia Pacific researcher.
We are also concerned about reports that a volunteer for National Federation Party was arrested ; on 28 July after a raid on his home, linked to his opposition to the law, and detained at Totogo Police Station. He must be released immediately.
Civic space in Fiji is currently rated as ‘Obstructed’ by the CIVICUS Monitor.
The harassment of the pollical opposition takes place in the context of restrictions on freedom of expression and other human rights violations in Fiji. Sedition provisions in the Crimes Act and the Public Order (Amendment) Act have been used to target journalists, activists and government critics.
Further, the right to peaceful assembly has been arbitrarily restricted with the use of the Public Order (Amendment) Act 2014.
Background
There has been widespread protest from politicians, public figures and many in the community over the government’s intention to amend the iTaukei Land Trust Act.
At the moment, any individual leasing land or wishing to make changes to a lease must do so through the iTaukei Land Trust Board, which was established to protect indigenous landowners’ rights – but the amendment removes this protection.
The NGO Coalition on Human Rights (NGOCHR) has demanded greater consultation and collaboration with all relevant stakeholders regarding any proposed changes to the law.
