We've had about 10,000 cases identified in Oz. Let's assume the actual number is thirty times higher... 300,000. Only just over 1% of the population. We're really not in any different position than we were in February.....at this rate it will go on for years!
To be fair, this seemed to have been caused by someone screwing up the requirements for quarantine. Someone has decided that it was okay to have security guards looking after our national security.
Now, the governments have to get tougher. Quarantine for everyone from overseas, and make it impossible to escape. People are selfish.
Dani Minogue seems to have gotten an exemption as she has a private place she can quarantine. If she is honest and takes it seriously, all good. If it were someone else that doesn't care, like that guy that rode his motorbike from Vic to Qld, then we need to insist that they are quarantined where the government can keep an eye on them.
I think this should mean that no-one, not even Dani Minogue, gets the option to choose where they quarantine. The risks are too high for it to become the judgement call of some random person.
If this becomes contained again, what is to stop some other 'nice' person thinking that the rules are too harsh and letting some other selfish git risk everyone else in the country?
