A ban on large public gatherings will commence on Monday as schools across the country prepare for the possibility they too could be shut down.
Some schools in Australia are taking matters into their own hands and planning to teach their students remotely, and Health Minister Greg Hunt said a formal directive on closing schools is an option that may be considered down the track. "When we are looking forward over the course of the next six months we are, rightly, keeping all options on the table," he said.
When?
The only way to enforce such a lockdown is with the military and can’t see that happening here.
We need to follow NZ's example and close the our borders. 14 day self isolation is not enforceable. The Government needs to bite the bullet and STOP PUTTING US AT RISK.
