Just need people to take responsibility & get tested now if they were in these area's, and isolate until they get the results.


How you guys dragged it back made it seem unreal, the numbers dropped at a crazy rate.

I agree, it almost sounded too good to be true...... makes you wonder though, all we need, another conspiracy theory.

Literally confirmed VIrgin flights, booked an Airbnb and a hire car for family Xmas in Tas only two days ago :roll:

Hopefully it gets sorted quickly and you can enjoy your trip. Unfortunately this makes interstate travel a bit of a lottery. My son flew down to Hobart Saturday afternoon for 3 week work stint. He's currently locked up in an office waiting to see whether he has to go into quarantine.


Nature of the beast unfortunately!

Just drove past the Covid testing on Hampstead Rd, Northfield. Cars queued almost back to Grand Junction Rd, so getting tested won't happen quickly.

As much as that sucks, it's good news, taking this seriously.

Two things...

1. Everyone lining up for a test didn't just get sick this morning and they weren't all at the locations listed. This shows people had complacency in regards to getting tested. Even with no known community transmission people should still be getting tested when showing symptoms.

2. Not every single person on those buses or at the locations would have been infected. Yes the list looks long and it could be really bad but the more people that go and get checked 'just in case' then the quicker this will get under control.

Spurrier on the radio this morning certainly pushed how serious this was but also was calm, level headed and organised. The government and all businesses (should) have plans in place for this type of outbreak, if we all listen to instructions and don't be dicks about it this should be under control within a week or two.

Nup, he has too.

Anyone who has arrived since last Monday has to get tested and isolate.

From 11:59 tonight it's hotel quarantine.

Yes but isolation is better than quarantine. It’s not ideal but at least you can choose your place of isolation and not be hit with a $2500 bill

Simple can we build a covid proof fence along Grand Junction Road and no one north of it can travel past it

The long list is both bad and good. Bad that it's long, but good that it came out a pretty fast. Means contact tracing is happening and fast.
