Samantha Armytage slams 'hopeless' politicians as she encourages 'intelligent' Australians to get the Covid jab

Samantha Armytage has come out swinging as the world continues to battle low vaccination numbers and a deluge of Covid-19 misinformation.

Writing in her regular column for Stellar this weekend, the former Sunrise host, 44, likened the Covid crisis to a Hollywood movie, before urging 'intelligent' Australians to get vaccinated.

'This story has everything Tinseltown thrives on: deception, grief, conflict, a new reality and, of course, a few hopeless politicians along the way,' Samantha lamented.

Australians are far smarter than Hollywood': Sam Armytage, 44, has slammed 'hopeless' politicians and encouraged 'intelligent' Aussies to get the Covid jab

Sam then reminded her fellow Australians that 'the sooner we're all vaccinated, the sooner we can resume normal transmission'.

'We can rest assured that we have a reliable TGA and that most Australians are far smarter than Hollywood, and certainly more intelligent than many who run for politics,' she said.

Both of Australia's vaccines currently in use - Pfizer and AstraZeneca - were approved by the country's regulator, the Theraputic Goods Administration, early this year after completing phase three trials.

Get it done, Australia! And, while the vaccine debate rages on in America, Samantha reminded her fellow Australians that 'the sooner we're all vaccinated, the sooner we can resume normal transmission'

On Friday Scott Morrison outlined a four-phase transition towards living with Covid and finally ending the cycle of lockdowns and border closures.

The Prime Minister hailed a 'new deal for Australians' as he explained the stages titled vaccinate, prepare and pilot; post vaccination phase; consolidation phase; and final phase.

The pace of the plan - which will eventually let the country manage Covid like flu - depends on the vaccine rollout, with lockdowns eliminated once a certain percentage of Aussies have been fully jabbed with two doses.

'I have made it very clear today what is on the other side': On Friday Scott Morrison outlined a four-phase transition towards living with Covid and finally ending the cycle of lockdowns and border closures

'I have made it very clear today what is on the other side. If we all get vaccinated then this all changes,' Mr Morrison said.

'The pathway we have agreed today gives all Australians encouragement and much needed hope in what has been a very difficult time.'

The plan was announced after 12 million Australians were locked down due to several outbreaks across the nation.
