Anti-vaxxer dies of Covid 2 weeks after being cheered for ‘no jabs’ rally speech

Aboriginal elder Max Dulumunmun Harrison, who was 85, died in Sydney’s Sutherland Hospital on Saturday morning from bronchial asthma linked to Covid and underlying complications

A prominent anti-vaccination figure who spoke at a rally against mandatory jabs in Australia has died on a Covid ward.

Aboriginal elder Max Dulumunmun Harrison, who was 85, died in Sydney’s Sutherland Hospital on Saturday morning from bronchial asthma and underlying complications.

Harrison was a cultural adviser “on health and cultural-related issues” for the Informed Medical Options Party (IMOParty), who confirmed his death.

They had plugged him as a key speaker at the ‘Millions March’ rally in Sydney’s Hyde Park on November 27. In front of around 9,000 people he said that politicians “deserve to be drowned.”

Speaking at the rally two weeks ago, he said: “(I) don’t recognise the place up on the hill in Canberra, because they’re not a government, they’re a friggin’ corporation posing as a government.”

He said people had “no freedom” due to Covid vaccinations and were “fighting to walk and talk for freedom.”

“Each and every speaker here today, they’re doing nothing but speaking truth, and that’s what we want,” Mr Harrison said of his fellow anti-vaccination speakers before comparing being against Covid-19 vaccinations to war.

“I’ve gone through the second world war and all the wars in between, but this is the most hardest friggin’ war that I ever got.”

Mr Harrison went on a tirade against politicians, saying: “Yell at that b******* that want to jack those little kids. Your grandkids, your children. Your nieces and nephews.

“There’s not a jail big enough to put the b******* in. Walk them in chains. That’s what needs to be done … These b******* … deserve to be drowned,” he said.

Mr Harrison was a respected Yuin elder and cultural man who had taught for many years at schools across New South Wales.

NSW Health reported two unvaccinated men had died from Covid-19 in the 24 hours to 8pm on Saturday night.

The state had on Saturday recorded the highest number of cases since October 9, and the second in a row with more than 500 cases.
