The fact that the first detection was in an elderly contact of someone working in a quarantine hotel is probably a good sign of it being caught relatively early, will be interesting to see if we end up locking down to avoid a Melb repeat.

They did frame it a job creation thing too, which is kind of weird but if it means more public housing then whatever I don't think it is weird that it is framed in job creation - it makes a lot of sense that during an economic downturn that the government does catch-up capital works to soak up some worker capacity. Ideally by 2024 Victoria should be fairly far along to recovery and the winding down of government capex spending for this build out will be evened out by increased private sector spending. A little awkward a feeling if a correctional officer has covid, if it gets into a prison it could cause some carnage.

Nah, I’ve worn a mask a couple of times at work (union) protests but even then it was weird as we were the only ones wearing masks no staff, customers or passersby. Was only done to be consistent with national guidelines for work I’d assume. Other than that it’s completely normal, played cricket on the weekend even post game handshakes were back (instead of fist bums).

I don't pay attention to South Australia, just in general, but it genuinely sounds like an alien world compared to Victoria the last few months. You guys are either going to get whiplash from how hard the rules pivot, or a bunch of Adelads are gonna die. Wear a mask, social distance!!!

If you catch 100% of the cases in hotel covid within 4 days you don't actually need to test staff because contact tracing the people in isolation is pretty easy, however you pay for that with a larger spread that has to be contact traced. It's the same logic that self isolation without symtoms with tests at day2 & day10 is fine even if you are isolating with family that aren't

Lord forgive me but I have faith that Marshall will handle this right. They did the right thing back in March/April so there's no reason to think they won't do otherwise now. Honestly all the states have done pretty well with handling things. It's the feds that have been the issue.
