NSWโ€™s coronavirus press conference has been thrown into chaos by a protester declaring that he is โ€œGodโ€.

NSWโ€™s coronavirus press conference ended in bizarre scenes on Monday after a protester calling himself โ€œGodโ€ attempted to approach Police Commissioner Mick Fuller to serve him a โ€œcease and desistโ€ notice.

The bearded man, identified as Sean Alun-David Thomas, was dragged away from the podium by officers, with TV networks cutting away as it became clear the press conference had been hijacked.

โ€œI have a question for you,โ€ Mr Thomas said as Mr Fuller finished answering a journalistโ€™s question.

โ€œDid you receive my notice of cease and desist?โ€

โ€œItโ€™s not your time,โ€ Mr Fuller said.

โ€œSorry, sorry, no, no โ€“ you were served,โ€ Mr Thomas said, approaching the podium holding a Manila folder.

โ€œDonโ€™t come near me,โ€ Mr Fuller said.

โ€œYou were served a notice of cease and desist last year,โ€ Mr Thomas said. โ€œI captured everything. I am the prime creator of this earth.โ€

A copy of the โ€œcease and desistโ€ notice was handed was to media.

The conspiracy-theory laden message makes references to Covid-19 vaccines, โ€œfraudulent testingโ€ and reptilians.

Mr Thomasโ€™ social media pages share a similar theme.

On Facebook he talks about the spiritual act of sungazing in order to reach self-realisation, and posts content related to the universe, chakras and becoming a galactic society.

MPs from all sides lined up today to blast Boris Johnson as the Prime Minister bizarrely claimed he "foresaw" the fall of Afghanistan.

The Tory leader brazenly said Britain had "succeeded that core mission" of the Afghanistan invasion 20 years ago - removing Al Qaeda from the country.

Boris Johnson insisted Britain would honour its "enduring commitment" to Afghans.

But with Covid rules scrapped, a recalled Parliament was packed for the first time in 17 months - and anger bubbled over at the unfolding disaster in the capital Kabul.

Pope Francis urges everyone to get COVID-19 vaccines for the good of all

Pope Francis issued an appeal on Wednesday urging people to get inoculated against COVID-19, saying the vaccines could bring an end to the pandemic, but needed to be taken by everyone.

"Thanks to God's grace and to the work of many, we now have vaccines to protect us from COVID-19," the pope said in a video message made on behalf of the nonprofit U.S. group the Ad Council and the public health coalition COVID Collaborative.

"They grant us the hope of ending the pandemic, but only if they are available to all and if we work together."

Vaccines are widely available in mainly wealthier nations, but mistrust and hesitancy over the newly developed shots have meant that many people are refusing to take them, leaving them especially vulnerable as the Delta variant spreads.

By contrast, poorer nations still do not have access to large-scale vaccine supplies.

Medical experts have warned that ever-more dangerous variants might develop if the virus is allowed to circulate in large pools of non-vaccinated people.

Pope Francis was himself vaccinated in March, saying at the time that it was an ethical obligation.

"Vaccination is a simple but profound way of promoting the common good and caring for each other, especially the most vulnerable. I pray to God that everyone may contribute their own small grain of sand, their own small gesture of love," the pope said in his latest video message.

The Ad Council and COVID Collaborative launched vaccine public service announcements to the U.S. public in January across television, websites and social media.

In a statement, the Ad Council said the pope's message represented its first campaign designed for a global audience.
