Tell that to WA. According to them - and Qld - it's all the fault of Victoria & NSW. If they'd 'done the job right' the borders would be open! Never mind the fact that proportinally, WA isn't carrying their share of the incoming traveller load. And Queensland is less than half of WA on a per-capita basis. WA even claimed in the Palmer trial that they could open the borders "in as little as 28 days". Now while this is technically "true", it doesn't reflect the reality that it can break out, and probably will do so again. Look at NZ for example. Nothing for 3 months, then bang! 100 cases in less than a week. And they still don't know where it came from!
