Agree regionalising a response will work if we can manage those moving into and out of those regions (e.g.masks on drivers of essential goods when they arrive from areas of greater case numbers; faster response for small spot clusters like Batemans Bay to prevent spread)

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❤️

Its reliant on case detection and my observations factors thus into the 100 cumulative cases over 14-days.

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.

😁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+)

I agree with @MackayIM Also Phase 3 trials will answer if those recovered from covid do poorly with a vaccine and if elderly need a different vaccine to aid their immune response. 🤞

Such a no brainer It has quickly just become part of the routine in Melbourne now that it is mandatory. If I'd had the choice for compulsory masks a month earlier or level 4 rest'ns a month later I know what I'd picked. We don't have a rewind button but can learn from each other

Call out for Indigenous folk who work in STEM (science, tech, engineering, maths). Based anywhere in Queensland.
Would love for people to take over for just a day on @WeAreBrisbane for daily rotation curation for National Science Week (17-23 Aug).
Much appreciated 🙏🏽
