With the increase in hotel quarantine case numbers , and now the positive test result of a guard in Perth, will we see any isolation of the staff that work in these environments (other than when the individual tests positive)?
I bet no, we won’t.
I would put money in there being another “outbreak” (to use some media sensationalism) in more than just Perth, and subsequently there being more lockdowns.
quote from ABC news article today:
The cases stem from a security guard in his 20s who was infected with the virus while working at the Pan Pacific Hotel, Mr McGowan said.
The man worked on the same floor as two other positive cases staying in hotel quarantine, he said.
He had been out in Perth's inner-northern suburbs for days before testing positive for COVID-19.
Two of the man’s housemates had since tested positive for the virus.
They have all been moved in hotel quarantine.
Just to recap:
work with covid positive people, allowed out in the community, spread it to others.
fly an aeroplane, isolate in your room at the destination, fly home to Australia, vaccinated= 14 day quarantine.
That makes sense.
