Quarantine is not 99.9% effective. 21,000 cases (70% of total cases) since border closure on 20 March '20 are directly & indirectly due to quarantine breaches & exemptions. Purpose-built quarantine facilities with rapid antigen testing on arrival & day-14 are required.

So you were calling for purpose built quarantine from the get go? Or is this a new thing? Why not use Christmas? It’s both purpose built and off shore ?
Replying to @MarylouiseMcla1
So do you consider state border closures necessary?
Covid 19 has been the mother lode for Australian xenophobes also for anti-vaxxers, anarchists, libertarians and all sorts of other crazies. Bottom line: why do anything? People with relationships OS can basically go fuck themselves is the Aussie way.
Have to agree. It is a Federal Government responsibility and they should have ‘fixed’ it with dedicated facilities a year ago. Like production if MRNA vaccines should also have been fixed a year ago. Now slowly being dragged kicking and screaming in the right direction - maybe...

We need to copy what our forefathers did, quarantine stations and 40 days, the root meaning of quarantine. #destinedtorepeat

How many quarantine places required nationwide? Where is your modelling? How long will it take to build facilities? What cost? What locations? Pls be specific. It's your job isn't it? #strandedAussies need 25k places to bring us near NZ capacity/capita
Replying to @EstherRockett
That's why @strandedAussies published our Get Informed pages - quantifying scale and identifying causes as well as #strandedAussies solutions. #auspol needs 25,000 quarantine places to bring us close to par w/NZ. That's 30x Howard Springs strandedaussies.com/get-info…
