What I do agree with is we have had over a year to prepare....and I am sure we could have done better. For example quarantine facilities not hotels.
Is the present system broke?
With over a 99.?% success rate, I believe it has worked quite well given that hotels were not designed for this.
If we do go down the track of building dedicated quarantine facilities (Wellcamp etc.) how do you propose that they staff these facilities.
There certainly would not be sufficient trained staff in Toowoomba.
If you move staff in, you would need to build staff accommodation.
