The Sydney outbreak has turned Australia’s Christmas plans upside down. But there’s a good reason it may be contained – and it’s not because of the contact tracers.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison said today, somewhat diplomatically, that the northern beaches community was “cohesive”.

For instance, the one case in the central coast was found to have taken the ferry from the tip of the peninsula to the region that adjoins Sydney to the north. One of the reasons that the northern beaches seems to some to have been effectively semi self-isolating for years is geography. Quite simply, it’s not the easiest place to get too.

Spit Bridge which many were so keen to raise – and not lower again – when the outbreak first became knownIt has no train services and any bus that ventures south of the harbour terminates abruptly just metres from the Harbour Bridge as if fearful to go any deeper into Sydney proper.
