In a story TrialSite has been following, conflicting reports continue to come out to Australia as to whether or not Aboriginals are being rounded up by the Australian army, local law enforcement, and even international peacekeepers of some type forced into quarantine camps. TrialSite has received video footage of Aboriginals filing a lawsuit to stop an invasion of privacy and civil liberties, for example. In parallel, other sources claim that all the accounts of Aboriginal harassment are forms of misinformation. TrialSite will continue to investigate and verify this unfolding situation. The Australian Government’s Department of Health maintains a website showcasing the importance of Aboriginal immunization against COVID-19.
Misinformation?
The Guardian is reporting Australian health officials are responding to “anti-vaxxers” spreading false information regarding indigenous Australians being forcibly removed from their homes and taken to quarantine camps in the Northern Australian town of Howard Springs. According to The Guardian article and the Aboriginal Medical Services of Northern Australia, “none of these claims are true.” Chief Minister Michael Gunner blamed overseas conspiracy theorists for the disinformation. “If anybody thinks that we are going to be distracted or intimidated by tinfoil hat-wearing tossers, sitting in their parents’ basements in Florida, then you do not know us Territorians,” he said.
Crikey.com, an Australian news website, has gone further, claiming that the harsh lockdowns imposed by the government have been the foundation for “fertile conditions for misinformation.” But the article does point out that the Aboriginals in the Northern Territories of Australia have lagged in vaccination rates. TrialSite reported recently that even FactCheck sites acknowledge the quarantine camps but those organizations qualify that they are used only for “travelors.”
Some Official Response
The uptake in some groups is slower including Aboriginals. The effort will be targeted specifically to furthering engagement with Aboriginal leaders and communities to secure buy-in to improve the overall public health, according to one local police official shown during the beginning of a video on Bitchute.

The police officer in this video declares that they will go “door to door and engage people” in a bid to ensure greater vaccination rates among this vulnerable demographic cohort within Australia. Hinting at a growing conflict, the police officer went on the record declaring that those who don’t want to get vaccinated will switch to move “intensive” efforts to ensure the public health standards are met.
The State’s POV
The Australian government grows ever more concerned in the Northern Territory as a COVID-19 outbreak rages across areas “locked-down” after cases were detected in remote Aboriginal communities known as Binjari—about 320km south of Darwin, reported the Guardian.
The indigenous communities of Binjari and Rockhole were locked down in response to the outbreak, and reports of Australian military presence were substantiated by the mainstream media the Guardian.
From this standpoint, the authorities have no bad intentions other than to protect people from this horrible virus as the authorities seek to help ensure infected individuals get the care they need, reports Northern Territory chief minister Michael Gunner.
Lawsuits Surfacing?
TrialSite has received reports of alleged “crimes against humanity” by Australian authorities against the Aboriginals as well as lawsuits being filed by the indigenous population to stop enforced vaccinations and quarantine measures being taken by the Australian government.
Aboriginal Protests
A group of Aboriginals from the Central Desert, part of what the tribal members call the “original sovereign tribal federation,” made a unified plea for international support in a video on Bitchute. In what appears to be a real and troubling situation, the indigenous tribal members stood in unity, announcing their need for international assistance. The group declared that Aboriginal groups in the Northern Territory are being forcibly vaccinated and over abusive social pressures to incentivize adherence to the national Australian COVID-19 vaccination protocol.
This group also declared that military and law enforcement, both Australian national and local and other international peacekeepers, are now deployed in this campaign to vaccinate the Aboriginals of Australia essentially forcefully.
In what can only be considered an unprecedented event if true—and various videos don’t seem to be contrived—an indigenous population that has already endured hundreds of years of abuse and discrimination as part of colonization now endures what appears to be an insidious, unacceptable modern form of state-sponsored forcible vaccination. TrialSite shares a link to the Bitchute video.
Claims that the military purportedly now controls these indigenous communities, directing whether people can come or go from their homes appears corroborated by other news organizations. Again from the State’s point of view, these actions are driven by public health mandates to stop the spread of SARS-CoV-2.
More Protests to Come?
But the Australian government may be the subject of larger, more mainstream protests in addition to rural-focused, Aboriginal actions. According to the Daily Mail, thousands turned out in protest against vaccine mandates in the cities of Sydney and Melbourne. With the new Omicron covid variant and a seemingly unclear vision by the Australian government, more protests and severe measures could be in store soon. TrialSite is communicating with groups in Australia while monitoring the various media for any material updates.
