Hopefully later today this will be ScottMorrisonMP. Not in another 2 weeks time when it will be too late and the health services will be in meltdown. That’s when people will die, not necessarily of Covid 19 but other (as of last week ) avoidable causes
Should NSW Government businesses, including privatised ex-departments close / move to majority work from home? Inquiry will show many are still chasing the $ brazenly. Pseudo ”safe distancing” at work ignores compelled closeness of p transport.
How many real cases would there be, considering you are told not to worry about getting tested unless you are really sick or you have been in contact with someone... Otherwise you are told just to stay home... How many cases are staying home... Like me.... 😩
A question or two. Of those who have tested positive, how many have been treated and discharged? How many have gone into ICU? How many have been put on respirators?
How many from the cruise ship? Directly or indirectly?
Hardly surpising with this sort of thing going on....

ACT coronavirus cases more than double in 24 hoursThe number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Canberra jumps from nine to 19 in 24 hours. The more testing we do the more likely the numbers will increase. Is this not, though, a good thing as the more we find the more we can isolate and the higher chance we can curb this?

NSW records 149 new coronavirus cases in biggest daily jumpNew South Wales has reported 149 new coronavirus cases in 24 hours, the highest one-day jump since the outbreak began. Not very lady like. All you idiots at the top were given one chance to control even had countries far worse than us to learn from and watch the results. Yet you still aren't learning from what is happening overseas! Some are calling for a complete shutdown, if that can be enforced obviously that will work. But people are ignoring authorities in a part shutdown, how will it being any different in a complete shutdown?
