Thousands of anti-vax protesters have taken to the streets of Melbourne to rally against Covid-19 restrictions as the state records 51,356 new infections.
Demonstrators have gathered in Melbourne’s CBD on Saturday as part of the Save Our Children Protest against Covid-19 vaccines for children.
From Monday, children aged 5 to 11 will be eligible to receive their Covid-19 vaccination across Australia.
Protesters braved rainy conditions to gather in the city at around midday, bearing signs reading ‘leave our children alone’ and ‘hands off our kids’.
Young children were also spotted in the crowd holding signs saying ‘children are not government experiments’.
Multiple red Australian ensign flags were spotted in the crowd a common feature in anti-vaccination demonstrations.
