Straight to the airport, private transport only (taxis, uber OK, buses/shuttles/trains not) (in December, we walked straight to airport from our quarantine hotel, when Vic introduced travel restrictions on those coming from Syd) and then fly without delay.
Don't understand the logic here. What is the difference between someone emerging from HQ in Sydney and then immediately going to Melbourne by plane vs someone emerging from HQ in Melbourne? Both would have similar risk of being infected during time in HQ (assuming procedures are identical), and thus further quarantine periods would be necessary for both scenarios if felt sufficiently high risk. This has nothing to do with hotspots/local transmission.
