Yes, I've wondered that too. But I thought that there must be a good reason for it. I just haven't found one. Of concern is not so much flights from Canberra to Brisbane, we know the Brisbane airport is as tight as you are going to get it, but flights are going to Townsville, and to me if we are going to have a major outbreak, there is the weak point.Quote:

Like I did the other week, drove from rural NSW into Sydney airport without stopping, than flew onto brisbane to beat the order closure. The policeman at brisbane did ask me where I refused the hire car……good thing I pre-pay fuel and don’t need to stop.
What puzzles me is there must be hundreds of staff to make Sydney airport function on any one day……all these people commute to and from work from a greater Sydney area, hang on isn’t greater Sydney area in some level off lockdown, but hang on the airport is an essential service…..a good number of these workers interact with travelers passing through the Sydney airport…….

The lock down may have to go beyond August, as 42 positive cases have been out in the community for all or part of their infectious period. Unlinked cases are mounting. The virus has escaped greater Sydney, just a matter of time before it escapes NSW. This will be our biggest test.

No doubt essential services??? But much like the airport drivers, they’re no doubt a notable risk!Quote:

EDIT . AMA Vice President Chris Moy, " both the NSW government and population need to make sure they are doing lockdown properly, " " because we don't have a high enough vaccination rate, our only hope is to lock it out, it will overwhelm us too quickly . You've got to nail it now. "

It was only about a year ago they wanted us old ****ers to get the chop if it came to the crunch.
Naaaaaaaah young uns didn't get C-19.
Would it be too gloomy to suggest that NSW was where Australia began & could it be the place it ends?
