On a 4-day trip to Adelaide 4 weekends ago we weren't once asked to record our attendance.
complacency may be what blows the flames on this outbreak, and it’s something that a few certain premiers may need to learn a thing or 2 from.
2 in particular have been sprouting garbage that they’ve been keeping their states COVID free by slamming the borders shut - this in turn leads to complacency which shows in testing numbers, adherence to social distancing, tracing etc.
This whole Adelaide cluster only surfaced because an 80 year old showed up at the ER and then got tested there as part of normal hospital procedure. I’m assuming that means there were days of worsening symptoms with no tests up until the point that a trip to the ER was needed.
Contrast that with Sydney where 20,000 + are turning out daily for tests on advice that there’s traces of covid in the sewerage.
