The viability of the AFL season is in doubt with AnnastaciaMP unlikely to allow Queensland’s borders to re-open any time soon with Victoria, according to aclennell

The viability of the AFL season is in doubt with Annastacia Palaszczuk unlikely to allow Queensland’s borders to re-open any time soon with Victoria, according to Sky News Political editor Andrew Clennell. Victoria is grappling with the largest outbreak of COVID-19 cases in months. The state recorded 75 new cases in the past 24 hours – the highest jump since March.

“A greater concern out of this Victorian outbreak is what will happen with the state borders,” he said. “I expect a decision from Queensland on this in the next 24 hours on their original opening date of July 10. “But it is not looking good, with Annastacia Palaszczuk threatening the viability of the AFL season today by not even letting Melbourne based teams in without 14-day quarantining and the same for returning Queensland players.

Australia to ‘marshal’ resources to save Victoria: PM | Sky News AustraliaPrime Minister Scott Morrison says every resource will be used to deal with the boom of COVID-19 in Victoria which recorded 75 new cases in the past 24 hours – the highest jump since March. \n\n“We have seven states and territories at the moment in Australia where there is no or virtually no community transmission,” Mr Morrison said.\n\n“What that means is resources that are available in other states can also be deployed to assist with the outbreak in Victoria.”\n\nMr Morrison said marshalling resources across states and territories was a topic of discussion last week.\n\n“Premier Andrews has the full support of myself and every premier and chief minister in the country to deal with this outbreak,” he said. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia ScottMorrisonMP lol, the 'boom.' Interesting choice of the words there, Sky. The anti-Murdoch brigade will be all over that. ScottMorrisonMP Shame the COVIDSafe app doesn't work and Scott Morrison lied about it working as an argument for lifting restrictions though, hey? ScottMorrisonMP Not a jump. This is the result of a testing blitz. And so what if many have this virus? It's like a bad flu. Surely many thousands more have it, maybe millions in Oz. No way you can eradicate this. This is is all about psychological control, not public health. Vicpol
