I wasn’t talking about Covid testers at hotels. I was talking about Covid testers at clinics in the community and the perception of risk. Some seem to be advocating that Aussie crew should be isolating in quarantine hotels for months at a time in between flights in Australia. Ludicrous given who crew interact with when overseas.
If people feel that sort of quarantine is appropriate for Aussie crews due to ‘the risk’ then there are many others working in the field who are similar (or even higher risk) who should be being quarantined also.
The Covid risk to Australian based crew in PVG, NRT, HKG and SIN is so insignificant that it’s likely there is a higher chance of catching Covid on the northern beaches than in those ports.
