Australia capped at around 7,000 returnees per week currently but with Melbourne and now Adelaide closed to international arrivals there is less than that coming in. Cost and availability of flights is preventing some and others may have been on work visas that have now expired.

Yeah I agree to some point but I know the airlines aren’t helping. We know of one lady through work that has been bumped 4 times off flights home. Twice the airlines cancelled on her (back in April) and twice she was bumped for a business class fare when she got to the airport (both Qatar) she then returned to the end of the waiting list and finally got back in late JuneBooney wrote:Jim05 wrote:Lots of reasons.The Bedge wrote:I'm still trying to work out how after 10 months there are still people requiring repatriation.

I have absolutely no sympathy for any Australia over seas who didn't listen to this :

Caaarn today was terrible.
Most times she fronts up she's confident, and rattles off numbers and reasons for things - seems to have most answers I've found.. today was a waste of time.
Edit.. or she's hiding something and doesn't want to give out certain info.

I'm surprised she's held it together as long as she has to be honest she must be close to snapping.

This is a clear yes. Instead Spurrier tells us how wonderful she is for getting tested a week and a half after every man and his dog knew there were issues at the Woodville Pizza Bar!!!

A CMO normally doesn't have the level of power/influence she currently does at the moment either.
With great power comes great responsibility

Come on look at the big picture. She's protecting the girl because she's seen what's happened to the Spaniard everyone and their dog ripping into him and if something similar happened to the 16 year old girl she might have a breakdown or worse.

Point taken.
Would anyone actually care if it wasn't a press conference, and just a media release/update? Come out, talk about stuff and leave it as that.. don't have questions being asked.
I must say I cringe when I hear "reporters" reference Facebook or whatever.

This is my suspicion.
I suspect the School Girl didn't order pizza at all. (Lets be honest, you don't get covid from picking up a pizza box - hence why we aren't back in lockdown given this is supposedly surface transfer again).
I suspect the girl has collected drugs from the spaniard, either at the pizza bar or potentially elsewhere. I hope its the latter.
I could forgive the girl if it was the latter and she didn't realise her dealer was the same person as the famous Pizza Bar Guy and thats why she wasn't isolating.
Once positive, and speaking with SA Health, they have shown her a photo of him and she's acknowledged thats her dealer and thats why SA Health have now linked it to "the pizza bar".
If she had ordered pizza, they would have contacted her days ago to isolate, as there would have been phone logs of her call to order pizza, and possibly also payment tracing via credit cards (noting some people still use cash these days).

This then makes contract tracing more difficult and potential future lockdowns are broader and longer than what they need to be.
One only has to look at last Fridays response on social media (myself included) when the news on Woodville Pizza place broke.
The carefully chosen words since then on the Spaniard and the Woodville School Girl (why did Ricky Nixon pop into my head as I typed that) are not accidental.
