Which moron do we have to put in place as PM to get some decision making happening around here.
Why include Hong Kong, Normanton? At last glance, Hong Kong & Australia had a broadly similar number of confirmed cases. Hong Kong imposed restricted entry access to mainland Chinese visitors several days ago; Australia has only just commenced it. Your chances of catching the virus here in Hong Kong are probably not much different to your risk in the metropolitan parts of Australia.
