Not according to the health dept . They are saying it would be high risk to catch a flight .

I'm not sure how profitable they can be whilst only being allowed to fly between Melbourne & Sydney, with flights to Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Cairns, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin & Hobart off the cards for the foreseeable future.

WHO 'not equipped' to conduct COVID inquiry | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Cam Stewart says the World Health Organisation is “clearly not well equipped to make this sort of inquiry” because of its close ties with China. \n\nChinese President Xi Jinping has announced that he will only allow an independent inquiry if it is conducted by the WHO. \n\nMr Stewart told Sky News allowing the WHO to conduct the inquiry might be the “only choice” if China was to cooperate. \n\nHe said the Trump administration was scathing of the close relationship between China and the WHO and was pushing the international body to reaffirm its independence. \n\n“I guess one can only hope that the pressure which the US and Australia and other countries around the world are putting on the WHO, will make them lift their game because it doesn’t seem like the Chinese would let anyone else in apart from the WHO,” he said. \n\nImage: AP China “agreeing” to an “investigation” by WHO is a joke and shows the need for a new, truly international, non-exclusive health body that is not China Centric. StateDept MOFA_Taiwan Tredro is a member of the Chinese communist party. What a bunch of idiots. There was just a new election and the chairman was elected by the countries who backed the inquiry of Australia. MurdochCancer

US report finds China 'politicised' COVID-19 response | Sky News AustraliaFormer Pentagon advisor Jason Israel says China has politicised the pandemic by choosing not to directly help Taiwan in any way it could.\n\n“China will use any diplomatic, or otherwise, tool that it has in order to prevent Taiwan from having that global stage,” Mr Israel said. \n\n“No country’s national interests are being put to the side, countries are just trying to pursue their national interests without making it look like they’re taking advantage of a pandemic.\n\n“In this case, it looks directly like China is allowing the pandemic to continue without directly helping Taiwan.”\n\nHis remarks come after the United States-China Economic and Security Review Commission released a report called Beijing’s Deadly Game which said China blocked Taiwan from receiving assistance from the World Health Organisation.\n\nImage: AP nukechina IMHO UN security council needs to investigate this matter. China is obliged to answer Questions. Among any others embroiled in this mess. - sadly lives were lost - trillions wiped off business businesses China won't even allow the UN to acknowledge Taiwan as a sovereign nation.
