A NSW health official has been brought to tears during the Ruby Princess inquiry when asked about the department's shortcomings.

A NSW health official has been reduced to tears after it was suggested there'd been a"reprehensible shortcoming" by the department when Ruby Princess passengers were allowed to disembark in Sydney.

But, Ms Ressler said, while a ship was at sea she had"no jurisdiction" to control what actions were taken. "Myself and my colleagues at the public health unit were working very hard on this. We did what we could and if we could do it again it would be very different." The inquiry heard throughout the hearing there were low swab availabilities aboard the ship, as documented in messages shared between Ms Ressler and the onboard doctor.

She should not have apologised. Brad Hazzard was the minister responsible for docking the plague ship in Sydney and the mea culpa should have come from him.

Not surprising... many others have shed tears as a result of this fiasco. And what's worse, is that what we're seeing at that NSW old age facility seems to be being handled in the same way... disastrously.
