Did the AMA pursue the matter? Think about it, the govt is scrambling to get this thing happening, the AMA send 1 email & expect that very busy people R going to go out of their way to find it within the milieu of activity. Does the AMA really care or just want to score points?

Knowing and not doing something about it is the same as not knowing. It happened on her watch. She has trouble accepting accountability.

Get her out. What an absolute disgrace

Funny how all these Liberal shrills want Andrews to resign, Mikakos to resign but oddly enough not Morrison and Colbeck for failing so dismally in Aged Care.

She and Dan should be on jobseeker. Totally useless! DictatorDan

We know BS when we hear it 🤦

Another one who should fall on their sword MikakosOut

Kiss of death and her lies.........this really is Political manslaughter.

She must step down. Full stop. An incompetent minister lead to a full blown disaster in Victoria. COVID19Victoria Covid_19 melbournelockdown

She is doing more harm to Andrews than the virtually non existent opposition, so contemptuous of parliament and is the minister for health in the midst of a disaster if there is a reason to limit powers this is it.

I’m flabbergasted

Strip her of her pension and sack her. Andrews is next.

So she’s either a liar or completely incompetent.

This is incompetence just like letting passengers of the Ruby Princess

Didn't hear, didn't know, didn't see. Incompetent

How long does the Sgt. Shultz “I know nothing defence” hold up? JennyMikakos

As the Minister of Health, how on earth under her did she not have exert enough leadership or trust for that staff member to forward such an important email to her? JennyMikakos Disgrace. Resign.

Asleep at the wheel.. Incompetence of the highest degree
