McGowan is also quoted saying:
"Our preferred option is zero COVID obviously and that's what we'll attempt to do,"
Mr McGowan on Sunday said WA's "preferred option is zero COVID-19" and he would not tolerate any cases or deaths in his state.
"We don't want to have deaths and we don't want to have spread of the virus, but there can be some easing of some of the rules," he told Sky News Australia.
What other conclusion are people supposed to make from that?
