The Geelong man in his 30s tested positive earlier in the week, COVID commander Jeroen Weimar says, and may have been infectious while at the protest.

A second person who took part in anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown protests in Melbourne has tested positive to COVID-19, health authorities have confirmed.He was likely infectious while at the protest, COVID response commander Jeroen Weimar saysEarlier this week, the ABC revealed a person had been hospitalised after attending Wednesday's violent scenes at the Shrine of Remembrance.

"We're also aware that there is an individual in Geelong who was at that protest who has also turned positive, so there's another little flurry of activity going on there," he said. Mr Weimar said he was unlikely to have contracted the virus at the rally, "would have been at that protest during his infectious period".

And so it begins! We shall now see more infected from these riots. So self defeating.. it's not rocket science, but obtuse is and obtuse does! 🙄

people who act irrationally without thinking of the consequences .. can we get a testimony from them that covid is real or get a waiver from these protesters that they do not want treatment when they get infected! so as not to burden anymore our medical frontliners 😠

Don't think anyone is suprised, you'll find these will probably end up super spreader events.

It's OK. We have 4000 ICU beds!! Don't we Dan? 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 givedantheboot sackbrettsutton jobsforunionmates

800 cases a day and they find a couple from the protests, more ABC crap, defund them.

Who cares. Let's open it up and let it rip. It's time. Can't hide forever.

How many police affected. I bet a few but it's being surpressed. realsuperspreaders

Who is care....

A second person who took part in anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown protests in Melbourne has tested positive to COVID-19. Geelong man! Geelong to be released from lockdown tonight. Double standards, Geelong should remain in lockdown.

2 in all those ppl.. wow that’s gotta be so newsworthy 😜.. lustennsnd watch the abc at your peril

Sorry. No sympathy for anyone who was there & does contract it!!!

There will be more for sure. They didn’t wear mask and shouting and shouting bursting out their lungs!

Excellent

Fools.

Just get tested as soon as you can.

Wow 2 of them they really deserved the superspreader name the ABC gave them.

slamup Go check out Craig Kelly’s Twitter inciting all this!

The article states he didn’t contract the virus at the rally, the headliners are click bait!

Way more pro lockdown people have tested positive. Makes you think.

ABC first with the big stories. FRO

COVIDIOTS MurdochRiots MurdochRoyalCommission

They don’t believe virus exists, so are they faking that they are sick?

funny how there were no cases from all the BLM protests. Once again this virus is smarter than the average bear. I'm calling bulls&it on this article especially from the ABC. Absolute Bull Crap - that what is stands for now

Next he'll be on an advert to get the jab 🤣

But of course these people will be at home taking Vitamins and Invermectin. That should see them off

Depends how sick they are. If very sick they may well be tested before they need their breathing support.

But are they sick?

Predictable. But, the science that they demonstrate against will be used to help out those that get sick enough to use our science based healthcare system. Sky News has done a terrific job gaslighting these people.

Look at this agenda the abc props up Jesus Christ

There'll be dozens more

Who’d have thought this is possible. Isn’t denial the best vaccine?

“The demonstrations have been widely condemned by all sides of politics”. Um, no, they haven’t. Too many LNP apologists paid lip service but not n the mildest terms, then used the word “but”. And you have Kelly and Canavan et al urging them on

Wow Supreder event already? Or we ll wait until 100 of them get it to confirm that

Still no superspreading?

Funny because weren't we told you can't get covid at protests? Like the last one last year that resulted in a major outbreak two weeks later...interesting

Ha Ha

Feel for all the break baskets out there doing it tough

'The demonstrations have been widely condemned by all sides of politics' except they haven't. Lot of 'buts' from the LNP.

Wow FANTASTIC news , virus has last say ,one way of getting sense into small minds

The MurdochRiots keep delivering.

Read the article. He didn’t get it at the rally. It’s now been 8 days since the start of the protests & there is so far no spread among those who attended.

Please reasure the people who are doing the right thing & not acting like baffoons with these protests that this bloke is at the back of the que for any hospital medical attention.

I find it hard to believe a tradie protesting about the Jab would even consider going and getting tested.... something smells fishy covidproof

There'd be more but they wouldn't get tested.

And hundreds of others who didn't go to the protest also have COVID. Where is the evidence that lockdowns are effective or a long term solution?

Shouldnt be allowed medical assistance
