😁Decline in ’change in 14-day totals’ in Vic & NSW says 2nd wave coming under control. Congrats Victoria ❤️. 14-day total traffic light I use: 'green' open border (less than 59 cases), amber 'wear a mask' (60-99), Red hotspots 'ring fence or curfew' (100+)

Fantastic @MarylouiseMcla1 Do you know if/when the Vic Govt will start planning and putting into place this type of program? Do you know if there is an ‘open for business’ and ‘stay on top of covid strategy’ given zero cases seems implausible?

There maybe a strategy that we don’t know about but my trafgic light system reflects difficulty of controlling cases once total gets to 100 over 14-days.

You were great on 3AW this morning. 👏Wonderful sharing of your knowledge with the general public. I enjoyed hearing about the green zone & I’ll refer to this before we make any changes in our home environment. Wondering if have some home tips for people living in hot zones?

Everyone outside the household should sadly be assumed as potentially infectious (COVID can be spread before symptoms developed) & never let your guard down - stay 1.5m away & never take your mask off in public transport/taxi/uber/shared car, meeting & tea-room. It will improve❤️

YES to traffic lights. Like Austria - Initially for other EU countries but bear in mind most of Europe fits into Australia’s area. Why cant we do this ? We need restrictions ,we need to be able to tweak them rapidly. We need to move away from city centric border closures

I don’t want to sound rude but is there any chance you can talk about this next to time you are interviewed? Sorry if you have and I’ve missed it. We need clever people to open the minds of our governments . If the mask debate is anything to go by it’s going to be hard work.

"green' open border (less than 59 cases), amber 'wear a mask' (60-99)." Why adopt these numbers?

if we dont have a system then authorities may wait too long to react.
