How do you decide which workers are essential and therefore immune to the virus and which ones pose a danger to the community 🤔

All because a few cant do what is needed. Like stay home when sick. Maybe dont join mass gatherings and walk the streets. Really does take a few idiots to ruin it all

DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN......HE IS SELFISH...

250,000 is bollocks. Watch the real number revealed later on to be close to double.

When Daniel Andrews said everything will be fine he meant 'everyone will be fined' - ( This is a non-political joke, purely for comical reason. )

I don’t understand how politician still think that can stop this virus. They are ruining people’s lives for nothing.

250k out of work, and Dan gets a pay rise - nice job if you can get it.

How many businesses will disappear

Any word on real estate?

Why can’t old people just be isolated? This is so unfair

Essential services like supermarkets, pharmacies and petrol stations have escaped the sweeping orders. 9News

Any chance of getting a microphone Amongst the reporters to hear their questions

disasterdan 🤦

Shut it down- let South Australia & New South Wales divvy up the land.

Unfortunately 😥
