As Melbourne goes into lockdown for 6 weeks, @UNSW epidemiologist and @WHO advisor @MarylouiseMcla1 says it may be time for a purpose-built, ethical and safe #COVIDー19 facility to move large groups of patients to, such as those in the high-rise towers. abc.net.au/radio/programs/pm…

Sometimes quotes are taken out of context. To clarify I support WHO guidelines & approach to developing them. Yes, I do get tired of particle size argument, we know viral infections & COVID patients expel both airborne & droplets but we interpret epi pattern for major spread mode

Time to lock down all of Melbourne, @MarylouiseMcla1 tells me on #abcPM @RadioNational @abcnews and residents in the locked-down high rises who are infected should be moved to somewhere safer. She says Australia needs a purpose built facility for large #COVID19 breakouts.

Thank you Melbournians! Ring fencing postcodes (localised lockdown of hotspots) isn’t pleasant - but it does work and we are grateful. Keep safe, get tested, exercise. We're barracking for you ❤️

Melbournians please wear a mask on public transport. Melbournians in hotspots please wear a mask. We ❤️you and new cloth masks can provide up to 70% protection. Outbreak management using Ring Fencing of hotspots works - use it, please.

Why test widely for Covid-19 in “hotspots”? Because symptomless carriers can be as high as 18%. When you add these to the pre-symptomatic cases ... you've got at least 40 per cent of cases not presenting with a symptom.

The logic we knew. Residential Aged Care facilities are not purpose built to care for COVID-19 residents, nor to be “proxy hospitals".
