I can think of more interesting scenarious but they are specific to certain airlines so I wont go into that...
versus someone living at home in say, the usa, with no home isolation coming aus??
crikey. Different ballgame. Currently aus based intl crew are home iso bound in country and restricted to room and room only by the exemptions that allow us to then home isolate.
not perfect but not even close to ths same risk profile.
its about managing risks not pretending its possible to completely eliminate risk. Unless you wanna vote in WA or QLD
