We're not just talking "one or two more than other states" we're talking hundreds.
You'd think the aim of the feds would be to ensure all states get a fair and equitable share of the misery - but not so, another fed fail!
I'm not sure you've heard of the Swiss Cheese Model? The negligence is at all levels but the focus tends to be myopic.
The second wave had quarantine issues (fed issue handballed to states) which then got out of hand due to poor tracing (state issue) and the safeguards weren't in place in aged care (fed issue).
The private aged care facilities are a federal responsibility while public is state. 651 deaths were private aged care.
