Yes, they are aware they can fly back, but they think flying and quarantining in a hotel with other potentially infected guests is too risky for the baby. Probably a good call given what has transpired.
My cousin applied to the gov to "reunite" with the family overseas. He is willing to take the risk that he may not be able to return in the foreseeable future. Application was rejected! He has missed the 1st bday and doesn't know when they will reunite. He lives alone and I can't imagine what his mental health would be like, but he assures me he is "ok".
Does anyone know what the genuine reason is on preventing people from leaving the country?
How many other countries are preventing people from leaving? This is one rule I can't understand.

Yes, Tony Abbott and George Pell did. I assume they have friends that you don't...
