Welcome to the nightmare that is the Delta variant... from someone in NSW. I don't believe it's possible to contain once it escapes the bag. The incubation period is too short, less than 24-36hrs in some cases.

what happened with 'going early and going hard'? so far the Vic outbreak numbers look much worse that Sydney despite VIC going early and hard and NSW going slow and soft Delta doesn't care about our zerocovid utopia and lockdown fetish

The short sharp lockdown going well ? It’s delta.

It's not that bad ...the numbers are from day 13 tests of people already isolating. Only 3 mystery cases...big improvement

Dafuq?

Of the 57 locally-acquired cases, 54 are linked to known outbreaks and 44 have been in isolation for the entirety of their infectious period.

Run faster than virus, otherwise lockdown doesn't work.

Don't think Vic can achieve 0 anymore.Besides the vaccinated will mostly be asymptomatic and will unknowingly pass to everyone else esp in supermarkets Mystery cases to soar like UK US last few weeks If anything bring forward all AZ second jabs to 9 weeks instead of 12 weeks
