Reading from the sheet above, stay at home orders are same as previous stage 3. Differences are: no visitors allowed at home, hairdressers will be allowed to open, people wonāt be allowed to leave or enter metropolitan Melbourne and Shire of Mitchell for exercise.
The municipalities included in the new order are:
Six weeks is longer than I was expecting. Massive news.
Youāre editoralising the information / taking it out of context, itās likely to be no different to the existing SA border closure that has been present for months now. Essential travelers will no doubt include freight as it always has since the borders were closed.
Specialist Schools to also return this Monday. Iām in a specialist school as I have autism.
Itās good that Yr 10-12 get to go back to school, they should be prioritised over the other students.
No wonder they call us Mexicansā¦
is the school thing only for the lockdown or is it state wide?
My mistake, I mean just metropolitan and one shire in Regional Victoria. The school holidays will be one week longer, but all teaching staff will go back to school to plan for online school. The school closures will last 6 weeks, and then they will plan if itās good to open up again.
Hopefully the General Public who have been doing the wrong thing now realise how serious it is.
People were calling for restrictions to be eased and now look. They have only got themselves to blame. Donāt blame the Government on this one for your wrong doing.
The Year 10-12 students presumably will be more disciplined with their social distancing compared to the younger kids, too.
I wonder if heās going to be handing over the cheque to the Queensland and SA Governments for their border closure operations. I doubt it.
More idiot questions coming during the press conference. I wish they showed the reporters faces so we can see who is so stupid.
I would. None of it would have happened if the hotel quarantine didnāt end up being a disaster.
As a teacherās aide myself, I thought the social distancing measures wonāt working. Most of the students were not social distancing, and moving chairs and furniture around to their friends or peers. Around the school, there would be areas around the school that people would squeeze into large groups such as exits.
Currently listening to the press conference via 7 News Twitter, I didnāt hear any reporter asking about effects on public transport between Melbourne and regional areas. This is important as Premier Andrews had said police would set up checkpoints at every arterial road around Melbourne and Shire of Mitchell.
I think itās obvious that it will be suspended. What use is there when nobody is allowed to enter or leave the metropolitan area?
Hopefully the Public Transport Victoria and V/Line websites will be updated in the next 36 hours or so.
Those security guards shouldāve kept it in their pants and did their job that they were assigned to do rather than going around spreading the virus.
The return travellers shouldnāt have refused to get tested and thought about others than themselves.
Ahh yes itās happened to me on the escalators at Perth underground station . Now I just wait for everyone to go and then go on the escalator when itās not hordered with hot office guys and ransoms.
Itās amazing how many people think coronavirus is over in Perth and stopped social distancing .
