So sad the SMH now deletes comments not aligning with their agenda.

Positive tests and cases are 2 different things. Positive is not a diagnosis. How many of the nine have symptoms are being treated or in hospital

Meh, who cares? After the Victoria CHO announced the overstating of death rates yesterday, it’s hardly worth worrying anymore.

One in five Victorian health workers with COVID-19 'caught it at work'The warning comes as a major outbreak at Frankston Hospital reignites fears about the dangers of the virus spreading among medical staff working between hospitals. The CCP is an evil organization that has brought devastation to all mankind! Too bad none have a brain cell between them to use a tried, tested & safe treatment for COVID19. Doctors, nurses & frontline medical staff across the world are using Hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic, as well as treatment for patients. Wake up!
