COVID-19: Greater Sydney & NSW Re-Opens

The 10 cases are only from 8pm last night up until this morning. 1 case flew up to Queensland. What will happen to Queensland now?

Uh oh.

Brad Hazzard said he was tested last night at 10pm. Why the fuck is he at this conference?

Has he already got his test results back?

After watching 6 months of pressers here in Vic there appears to be a heightened level of arrogance and disorganization amongst these three.

Perhaps Dan just does a better job rolling things off his tongue

This Hazzard bloke seems like a fool.

NSW chief health officer Dr Kerry Chant has confirmed no further cases have been associated to the Sydney airport bus driver who tested positive earlier this week.

Wow watching this and the SA press conferences a few weeks ago just shows at how good Daniel Andrews and Brett Sutton were. I feel the blame for a moment was on young people. Lets not forget the two people who first tested positive were over 60 and decided to not self isolate before receiving their results.

This person who tested positive in QLD allowed to drive back in between while awaiting testing results? What?

Well you’re username is totally confusing now haha!

The arrogance from these three is astounding. SA as you mentioned stumbled considerably.

Dan and Sutton clearly excel in communications.

The official numbers




Of the 10 new cases:

I was honestly expecting over 100 cases.

At this stage this is not as bad as it could have been. Tomorrow will be the real test.

Diamond Standard now! What a flog.

Can Brad Hazzard stop talking about the ‘diamond standard’ of the contact tracing team? Wait till the storm is over then gush over your team, not when you’re in the middle of a growing cluster you muppet.

I don’t understand why international flight crew etc were ever allowed here and not in quantine. During the Victorian lock down pilots based in Victoria had to quantine when doing flights in QLD. They were only allowed to travel to and from the airport. Had to get meals delivered to their door etc. It’s not fun but has to happen.
They should block everyone from travelling out of the northern beaches now before it gets worse

I’m not so sure he’s gushing as such, I think he’s trying to keep them positive and keep up the high quality of tracing.

Something to keep them motivated.

Out of curiosity who is the Doctor that speaks? Is she in the same role as Nicola Spurrier in SA. It shouldn’t be Gladys interrupting to clarifying potential misconceptions but rather an expert and if she is the expert then she needs to step in at times. Nicola Spurrier did that really well.

Yes she is the Chief Health Officer I believe. Brad Hazzard is the health minister and his equivalent in SA is Stephen Wade.

in SA the big numbers didn’t come until the 3rd day, the day after the outbreak when all the tests were done had low numbers because the bulk of the tests weren’t processed. for NSW that would be tomorrow.

That seems like a high risk attitude to have, the numbers that come in now are for people that were infected days ago. If you are reacting to the data available it is probably already too late. the only way to avoid an outbreak it to get ahead of it and cast a wider net than what seems necessary.
