A public servant on the frontline of Victoria's failed hotel quarantine program has revealed he was given no infection control training, and felt so unsafe he quit. An inquiry examining the fiasco heard quarantined health workers feared for their family's safety due to the poor standards.
Yeh that was the reason he quit..
one silly mistake paved the way to a disaster 🙁

Obvious question. What didn’t he report lack of safety to his supervisor? Why didn’t he go right up to the top of DHSS? Why not contact the minister? Contact the Premier? Disgraceful but common, people turn a blind eye because they think of themselves, not about other Victorians.

NSW should not have to 'bear the brunt of hotel quarantine' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator Andrew Bragg says the states and territories need to 'share the burden' of hotel quarantine for returned travellers.\n\nMr Bragg said hotel quarantine in NSW was at a bit of a “choke point” with approximately 350 people held in mandatory isolation each day.\n\n“One of the most successful components of our strategy to beat the coronavirus has been closing international borders,” the Senator acknowledged.\n\n“We do need to see the states providing more capacity on hotel quarantine so we can have higher entrance into Australia”.\n\nHis comments responded to a push to open international borders and allow Australians to travel overseas at their own risk with hotel quarantine upon return.\n\nIn contrast, Labor MP Anika Wells said, “we’ve always got to balance … public health and safety with the best of the medical advice and the best industry advice.”\n\n“If Qantas is working on the basis that international borders won’t open until mid-next year, then that’s what we should be focusing on,' she said.\n\nImage: AP ajamesbragg Like sharing cruise ship passengers by air?

Vic hotel quarantine debacle becomes a 'question of competence' for Daniel Andrews | Sky News AustraliaSky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell has accused Premier Daniel Andrews of being 'misleading' in his response to the inquiry into Melbourne's botched hotel quarantine system which has been blamed for sparking Victoria's devastating second wave.\n\nTensions have mounted between the Premier and the federal government after Mr Andrews claimed the offer to provide ADF personnel to guard hotels was never given, which federal officials have denied. \n\nMr Clennell told Sky News he heard reports the offer was being briefed out of Melbourne at “agency levels” but it was in fact made. \n\n“I’m not prepared to say he is lying but he’s being misleading and if he doesn’t know what his agencies are up to, well then you know, it’s a competence question,” he said.\n\n“I just think that was a real slip up by Dan Andrews.\n\n“There’s no doubt in my view from everything I’ve heard … that ADF assistance was offered, indeed it was used in hotel quarantine in New South Wales.” \n\nMr Clennell said the Premier’s defence ADF personnel were deployed to assist at airports and with transportation rather than to guard hotel quarantine was incorrect.\n \n“That’s not correct, in the other states they were also used for hotel quarantine,” he said. \n\n“It’s hard to excuse the Premier for that.” \n\nImage: Getty aclennell The phrase 'Fuck off Andrew Clennell' seems rather appropriate about now. aclennell Ooh the Murdoch press accusing anyone of being “misleading” is funny aclennell To much to read about the same.

'Unreasonable demands': Health staff ignored suicide threat in hotel quarantine, inquiry toldHealth officials lost track of returned travellers staying in Melbourne's hotel quarantine scheme and threats of suicide were dismissed, according to a nurse giving evidence at an inquiry into the botched program. I'm sick of the people in this story harping on about mask usage. If people recall, the unnamed nurse was shown a training document from the Australian government which clearly showed masks won't stop the spread of the virus. Get off the hind-sight bandwagon. They didn't know.

WA Premier reveals plan to make people in hotel quarantine wear monitoring braceletsDays after two women allegedly breached hotel quarantine to attend a party, WA Premier Mark McGowan revealed he wants to force people who presented a flight risk or had a criminal history to wear a monitoring bracelet. ALL POLITICIANS SHOULD BE *MANDATORY DRUG TESTED* and wear one of these so the people that they work for (you and me) know what exactly the hell they are upto at all times... I hope the people see how they are testing certain things at different places to see the publics reaction - this is all testing so they can try to (but wont succeed) swoop in and blanket the world with these RESTRICTIONS. WAKE PEOPLE UP! May be we can brand permanent tatoos on their heads for quick identification. Deviant behaviour like asking for basic freedoms need to be outlawed for achievement of stable Australian reich. Nothing says duty of care like a bogan tatoo on forehead. Start with Palmer. Heil McGowan
