MELBOURNE - Thousands of people were expected to defy public health concerns and protest against the mistreatment of Australia’s Indigenous people as the country marked its national day on Tuesday on the anniversary of the arrival of the British First Fleet in 1788.
In Sydney, Indigenous groups have called for protests to demand the national day be changed, although state health officials have refused to make an exemption to social distancing rules to allow for crowds of more than 500 people. In Melbourne, rally organisers said protesters would be sorted into groups of 100 people with a 10-metre distance between each to comply with social distancing rules.
Australia has fared better than most other developed economies in the pandemic, with just under 28,800 cases and 909 deaths, mostly in Victoria state. Victoria recorded its 20th straight day on Tuesday with no local transmission.
