There was a lot of commentary here about ACT residents being 100% compliant with self iso rules when complaining about NSW border closure, but News.com.au are reporting today that :
Two men have been fined by ACT Police after it was discovered they weren’t at home while they were supposed to be in quarantine over the weekend.
Police checked on one man about 1.45pm on Saturday and found he wasn’t at his home. The man, who was supposed to be in quarantine, later arrived back at his house while police were there and was fined $1000.
Police conducted another check on a man who hadn’t responded to an ACT Health quarantine survey questionnaire for two days.
When police went to the man’s home about 7.30pm on Saturday night, he wasn’t home, ACT Police said.
When he later arrived home, police allege he “did not cooperatively provide details about why he had left quarantine”. He was also fined $1000.
NSW imposing further restrictions on schools in light of recent outbreaks in a number of high schools. News.com.au reports:
School-related “social activities”, including inter-school sport, will not be allowed for at least the next six weeks to prevent or minimise “any mixing of students from schools in different regions”.
“We’re having a particular focus on stopping singing or chanting activities or the use of wind instruments in groups and that is because we have increasingly become aware around the way that droplets and aerosols can be generated by those activities,” Dr Chant said this morning.
“Also school-related social activities, school formals, dinners and dances and graduation ceremonies or parent engagement functions should cease and also school-related overnight events such as retreats, camps, excursions as there is obviously an increased risk of transmission in these residential-type exposures that are a consequence of those activities.”
