ScottMorrisonMP should be protecting our medical staff with the proven prophylactic cure that HydroxyChloroquine . His inactions allow this & many more to contract & possibly die from this virus. Gross negligence on Scomos behalf! If they gave us appropriate ppe and we treated every patient as CV19 positive until proven otherwise, this would not be happening. Some patients are lying about their symptoms so they don't get quarantined and exposing staff. Bit sick of the blame falling on healthcare workers

On 29 FEBRUARY 2020 it said: Don’t ban travel or flights, keep everything open”. Then only China flights were being banned. WHO are in China’s pocket. Shame isn’t shut down. Pretty easy to work out why, hardly worth a comment. Trump ignores advisors, gets it wrong, blames everyone else and takes no responsibility. Situation normal.
