Many people ignored the warnings, but the idea that there were no warnings is false.
Many people were in NSW seeing friends and family they had not seen all year. They were in green zones that, even now, remain Covid-free. The Victorian government's panicked actions were just another of their stuff-ups which continued today with the bizarre announcement that residents can return from Qld by road as long as they do a mad cannonball run across NSW only stopping twice for no more than 15 minutes. Good luck with that if you have kids. I wonder what the TAC thinks of this advice given it directly contradicts what they have been advertising for years!!!
