“The lockdown is tough and if it was to be extended it’ll be a real blow to Victorians, the challenges we had that came last time everyone was rightfully proud of but being put in this position again, the health advice is needed,” he told Sky News.
“The sort of spread we’re starting to see through aged care is a real worry, people died last time, we can’t afford for that, we’ve got to take precautions the health experts advise to us.” Mr Conroy said Victoria was “living with the consequences of Scott Morrison’s incompetence” and more priority should have been given to aged care residents and workers in the rollout. “They should have been getting their vaccination into people’s arms in this situation.
Wanna talk about this? 3 community outbreaks but funding still not reinstated?
All you s heads need to stop pointing figures at each other and sort this schmozzle out, for Victorian citizens and businesses sake !!!! I’m of the opinion you would all really struggle to run the chook raffle at the local pub 😡😡😡🙄🙄🙄
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲Trump
Yet the Federal government is just putting the blame on Victoria and not on it's sloth's pace of a vaccine roll-out
Don’t blame the Fed, useless Labour.
It's ironic everyone wants to blame the feds 🤣 in Victoria at least.. funny that! No one considers every other state has done great. When saying its the feds fault shouldn't every other state be in the same mess as Victoria 🤔
What else do we expect the OPPOSITION to say? They applaud the Government?
What a load of rot! Blame the Feds once again when it is another Labor failure!
Conroy is correct. The states & territories agreed to taking control of quarantine because they knew the fed LNP would stuff it up. We've also gone from the front of the line with vaccines to its not a race. From fail to plod the SloMo way.
Say what?
Victoria is living with the consequences of the worst State Government in Australia's history, funny how no other state is suffering as we are.

Facts show there is ‘no need’ for a lockdown in Victoria: Paul Murray | Sky News AustraliaThe facts demonstrate there is “no need” for a lockdown of either Victoria or Melbourne, according to Sky News host Paul Murray.\n\n“There is no need for a state-wide lockdown because just 12 of the 79 local government areas or council areas around the entire state have got one case at all,” he said.\n\n“There is not a single case in regional Victoria, this is days after the lockdown and all the fears that they had about contact sites and all the rest of it.\n\n“And here’s the truth about why you don’t even need the full lockdown in Melbourne, 67 per cent of all of the cases that currently exist – and we are talking about 40 right now outside of hotel quarantine – are all in one part of Melbourne alone.”\n\nGiven the announcements about how the current outbreak is the Indian strain of COVID-19 - which health authorities say spreads particularly fast - one would expect the number of cases to have gone “through the roof by now,” Mr Murray said.\n\n“We’re still at 40,” he said.\n\n“This thing does not need to be a lockdown state-wide, it’s not in enough areas.\n\n“It doesn’t even have to be in all of Melbourne because there has not been the super spread that they feared would happen.”\n But you forgot that Paul Murray is an idiot who is clearly unqualified in being genuine or presenting the facts or lastly any expertise in public policy for a pandemic... so there's that... the super spreader event may not have come out in the figures yet.. Facts and Paul Murray are like dieting and Paul Murray - non existent

Victoria is ‘run by imbeciles’: Rita Panahi | Sky News AustraliaThe government is treating Victorians like “we’re imbeciles” but the truth of the matter is “we’re run by imbeciles,” according to Sky News host Rita Panahi. \n\nVictoria was plunged into a seven-day state-wide lockdown on Thursday after Melbourne’s northern suburbs cluster grew to 26.\n\nThe cluster has since grown to over 40, while Victorian health authorities have expanded the list of exposure sites to 174.\n\nMs Panahi said the outdoor mask mandate for the entire state showed how “insane” the lockdown was.\n\n“You’ve got people up in Mildura who have not had a case of COVID for 13 months – up near the border – having to wear masks when they're outdoors,” she said.\n\n“You can be out walking across a paddock by yourself, and if you’re not masked, you’re technically breaking the law.\n\n“This is insane, it is not based on evidence. They don’t even release the evidence behind their decision-making, and they’re treating Victorians like we’re imbeciles, but the truth is we’re run by imbeciles.”\n RitaPanahi You are free to go live in Brazil Rita, no lock downs there, you'll fit right in with the fascist regime RitaPanahi What is a rita panahi. I've never heard of it. Does it move or living at all. RitaPanahi Got that right!!!!
