And I suspect SHVC has hit the nail on the head - at least, here in WA, the health system is so overstretched and understaffed that ambulances are ramping at overcrowded ED's - and that's without COVID. Imagine if there was an additional burden on the already straining-at-the-gunnels health system that COVID would bring, the whole thing would collapse. I think this is the real reason for our Premier's reluctance to open up - he realizes the predicament our crappy health system is in and is trying to avoid the virus showing it up, like the emperor's new clothes, by keeping it out by flustering and blustering as much as he can, without addressing the real issue at hand.
