Is this another dangerous misstep in our battle against the coronavirus? According to the Premier, the source of the northern beaches outbreak is from overseas and not an existing community strain (“Northern beaches cluster reaches 28 cases”, smh.com.au, December 18).
How can this surprise us when flight attendants working on international routes can apply for exemptions from Australia’s 14-day hotel quarantine program? They can then quarantine at a private residence of their choice; they simply have to provide a written declaration swearing they have not shown COVID-19 symptoms. As at least half of COVID-19 cases are symptomless, this is surely a recipe for disaster.
