FWIW:

Someone I know who I won't identify is an international FIFO. He was stuck overseas when the lockdown began. When he eventually got a flight home he was routed to sydney and isolated for 14 days before being able to come back to brizzy. He told me at the time that while there were some aussies being repatriated the bulk of the plane was Filipino students.

The queensland government claim the borders are closed but it's utterly trivial to get a pass to cross from either side.

I had to go into town a few times during the "lockdown" for legit reasons. I was constantly shocked at how many people were about.

The point of all this is you should not believe the nonsense being spruked on television. People are flying in, people are travelling and people are ignoring the social distancing stuff. Some are taking it seriously but a surprisingly large number aren't.
