Many condolences to the 14 families who are grieving the loss of the precious women and men

TIME TO MOVE EVERYONE OUT TO STOP THE DEATHS!

Test all of the residents who are still alive and those that test negative need to be taken out so that they can be cared for in a virus free environment and not just leave them in the nursing home to contract it.

Not enough has been done by scottmorrison 's government to protect the vulnerable residents at NewmarchHouse.

Move everybody out to cleared facilities, so they can live. Investigate all Staff for misdemeanours. Fumigate the facility, to the max.

I still dont understand how a worker with mild sympt's wasnt picked up by any of her other workers or bosses. Didnt any1 notice she had a slight sickness This should never have got 2 this stage. Feel so sorry 4 all the families of the ppl who have passed & the others in the home

Years of profiteering off of vulnerable citizens gives rise to this debacle. Increase the number of Registered Nurses rather than staffing these death camps with cheap unskilled labour Why did this happen? Why is it happening in old folks home? So much for the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety. I’m playing “Hello In There “ sung by Reg Livermore and a version by Bette Midler. I’m weeping.

The main points from Scott Morrison's latest coronavirus update - ABC NewsThe Prime Minister and Chief Medical Officer urge people to download the tracing app to speed easing of restrictions, while another large support package to help keep aged care resident safe is announced. I cannot think of a single thing that promotes that is not promoted as though the Australian people can't have this if they don't do that (e.g. download the coronavirus app and that will speed up easing restrictions, eat your broccoli and you can have dessert). Demeaning. So our future is based on the number of app downloads and not medical science? That type political blackmail is not a good look and only for the naive. I think he's worried that the app may go the same way as John Howard's Terrorism fridge magnets. Fascist at work.
