I think they were masked up today. Certainly the police officer and another dude standing beside him were both masked up when Gladys was speaking.

Heard some epidemiologist on ABC just now say the next couple of days could see numbers go to 50, then 130 around Christmas day IF people don't follow the "guidelines". Then those infected on Christmas day will be at their peak of infectioness on NYE. It will be really interesting to see if this localised lock down works.

Very short sighted to stop the Sydney to Hobart Race.
All they had to do was make one small change to the race and turn left outside the Heads instead of right.
Going to Hobart the long way they all would have had more than 14 days of isolation when they eventually got there.

Is the ADF being used for political games again? Vic had to make 3 requests to the feds for an additional 300 ADF to help. When the calls were finally answered, they are offered 50! WTF?

There are thousands of people trying to flee Syd, the road borders are the biggest risks, but they won't help with vehicle checkpoints either. WTF?

"He also requested 200 to 300 ADF troops, but Canberra sources said the Morrison government had not responded to his request on Sunday evening, and it could take two or three days to assess the need.

If it leaks into Vic, there is going to be hell to pay.

Kudos to airlines for cancelling some flights. The last 2 days has seen 3000 people from Sydney enter Melb EACH day.

There is some frightening similarities between whats happening in the US and the 2011 movie Contagion.

Food shortage, marshall law, and lottery vaccine to come in 2021?

Minister Hazard going off about 'vaxer/flat-earthers who write down "Mickey Mouse" or "Donald Duck" in the QR registers. Also asking venues to use the NSW Health QR app, because some providers aren't coughing up the data when asked to.

**DJR-351** · 21-12-2020, 01:05 PM

Victorian hotel quarantine inquiry report unable to determine who made private security decision

The final report from the inquiry into Victoria's botched hotel quarantine program has been unable to determine who commissioned the use of private security and has slammed the Andrews Government for failing to do "proper analysis" of the plan.

Now there's a surprise. So we spent $10M on the inquiry and $192M on the hotel quarantine program and that's all we get for it. I could have reported the same result 3 months ago (in fact I did) for nix.

Citroënbender · 21-12-2020, 02:42 PM

Send them an invoice, don’t forget to include the buses you had on standby for any underthrowing.

If you want the study to show that no one was at fault its very expensive the main expense is l hush money , the paper shredding and video deleting is all done for free by the subjects

VIC/Andrews "bashing" posts are allowed? As it has been all along this entire time? Ok. Not a problem. That's a fair and unbiased request. All good here. Will comply.

You could have clicked through and seen that what I posted was from the ABC article.

As has been mentioned, that was a direct quote from the ABC with a link, not FairmontGS's personal opinion.
