Quite the contrary, daily shop for us.

I quite agree FM, have been in battle with a few posters who are arguing the other way o_O

Noosa Civic had almost everything on display today. Dunny rolls, pasta, rice, cans of stuff. It's coming back to normal. Of course your local options for fish, butcher, F&V, and also the small IGA operators never ran out of stuff. People will always gravitate to the cheapest option.... best...

I'd suggest reading the excellent opinion piece attached to post #803 Your government is acting on your behalf, based on the best collective medical advice this country can muster. Anyone that thinks it's just Scotty from marketing - is an ill-informed fool.

Much more than that.

The obviously two - It meets multiply times a week, and is supported / advised by a similar abnormal group comprising of the CMO, and state & territory CHO. Some reading before posting is helpful.

That's the same argument as the Bondi beach crew... didn't work that well for them. Bondi has one of the highest rates of infection. This thing is very fluid, only need to look at the public statements, they change every day or two. In times like this, the public are losing rights left...

Footnote - these people are no different, probably a lot worse than the Aspen arrogant.

Sorry drron, they decided to board that ship, that decision was last minute, not 3 weeks prior. Their departure from home is totally irrelevant. Authorities changed their MO - they can do that. Three seperate authorities have confirmed the instruction was given and received - NSW Health, NSW...

I'll just leave this here. https://www.smh.com.au/national/my-fellow-doctors-should-zip-it-and-let-the-experts-fight-this-virus-20200327-p54eht.html

Indeed. Look no further than the boatload of doctors that decided to board a cruise around 21 days after this thread started. Putting aside tax funded holidays and all of that, they get a special flight arranged to bring them home, get a simple instruction to wait it out on arrival, but some...

Given we're isolating - I've just realised TV is a terrific conduit to catching up on sleep. 100% hit rate so far.

Agreed. I suspect it will take time for people to adjust to the new world order. Sadly, the virus may end up being the least of problems for many families :(

The PM also talked about changing family dynamics and DV. All very honest, practical, and more than likely advised by the experts advising the national cabinet. Very practical stuff, but I suppose difficult for some to comprehend.

That was discussed day one. Many on here had no idea.... and some didn't take kindly to being informed ;)

Given horrid reports from all over the world - very possible. But that reporter was angling more towards dereliction of duty.... more reading for that one!

That last one was accompanied by a statement that this was to ensure women did not have to fear being outside on their own. Sensible and practical solution IMO.

Enjoyed his answer to that silly Q regarding the foreign minister .... you would think these reporters would be more on their game. The PM is doing a stellar job!

Very fluid situation, better the initiative is implemented rather than worrying about making public statements 5 minutes to midnight. At the end of the day, the only ones that needed to be informed were the passengers at the airport - there are three seperate authorities stating they were...

NSW Health, NSW Police, and AFP all quoted as saying the order was given. Case closed.
