We are now worrying about what mat occur in Victoria with regard to covid. We know it is the indian variant which spreads very rapidly and we know the person ion question did not take a test until about a week after he got covid.
Both the Federal and state governments did a great job of containing covid indeed it could well be the best in the world.
However two problems stand out like a shag on a rock. ( see HERE )
We have not brought enough Aussies home and that is because the quarantine faculties are inadequate. hotels are a great short term solution but not long term as we have seen. They were advised some time ago by Jane Halton what to do but as yet have done nothing.
The vaccine roll out has been abysmal. We are one of the slowest countries in the world in terms of roll out. This is bad in two ways. Victoria would be looking vastly different if most people would have had their two jabs. We cannot open up until the vast majority of people have the vaccine. That looks ages away. My own experience tells it all. I saw nothing on TV, heard nothing on the radio etc about the roll out despite being on 1B. I eventually got to know when I saw my doctor.
The government needs to get up and start doing some work and it needs a clear succinct message.
It will look very silly if say the USA and the UK open up but we cannot!
