Bazz,

What's up, can't take being shown what people are really like, warts and all?

Why don't you go and then we will both be happy?

It does appear that the majority of our new community infection is coming from hotel Quarantine, as it is being practiced. We need to make the system foolproof, & stop letting overseas travelers into the country, until we have improved the system.

The current system of part time security personnel, working in other jobs as well, is a recipe for spreading any infection as far as possible. The system may be great for hotel owners with no other source of clients, but it does not appear to be well enough run to be of much use for the safety of the general population.

Dear Hasbeen,

Clearly, quarantine facilities should be run only by those who already recovered from COVID, or been fully and effectively vaccinated. Such people, in any numbers, should be well-paid and welcomed to arrive even from overseas, provided they agree to dedicate a certain period to work in quarantine facilities.

Jumping the gun a bit there Yuyutsu. These are not a full vaccine, they should stop anyone reinfected becoming sick, but we don't know if they actually prevent the recipient from becoming reinfected, & possibly pass the infection on to others.

Certainly not time to start letting people in, just because they have had the jab. More experience & research is needed before we know the percentage of recipients that will actually become immune, let alone no longer dangerous.

I think that there is little doubt that Victoria's management of the covid crisis has been the worst and the statistics prove it.

Danistan has the highest infection rate, death rate and negative growth in the country.

shonkyminister, we don't often agree, but the Victorian response to the hotel quarantine outbreak was unacceptable. The subsequent inquiry into the matter and its failing to identify the decision maker(s) involved in the whole fiasco should be judged by the people of Victoria at the next election. You have a political bias against Andrews, which is understandable, I have a political bias against certain politicians myself.

I am concerned that the Federal government was not more hands on with the response to hotel quarantine, after all boarder security is a federal responsibility. Just as I am concerned that there have been some failings in NSW, particularly the 'Ruby Princess' fiasco which the NSW Health Minister, The Hassard' was able to dodge a bullet over. The NSW government also failed to fess up to the origins of the northern beaches outbreak. Again questions asked about The Hazzard and any special exemption for a possible Liberal Party friend.
