You only have to sit and watch the amount of international passengers arriving into Australia to realise that we are never going to resolve the issue whilst this continues.
Just go and sit at the airport and watch the numbers arrive.
Unfortunately all at the expense of the Australian economy and airline industry which soon will be decimated beyond repair.
Maybe the root cause should be addressed. Stop all international arrivals full stop until this situation improves.
Just to put it out there ! Are the hotels rooms where people are allegedly isolated at being properly sanitized disinfected etc. I bet NOT........

"Currently, there is a diversion on all international arrivals into Melbourne Airport. Any international flights that were scheduled to land in Victoria will be diverted to other Australian cities."

Melbourne does not need to import, it has plenty of its own...
