[QUOTE="kingofnobbys, post: 1938713, member: 81934"] Army called in to lend Covid19 support in Victoria : [url=https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/victoria-seeks-coronavirus-support-from-adf-commonwealth-and-other-states/ar-BB15TH8e?ocid=msedgntp]https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/victoria-seeks-coronavirus-support-from-adf-commonwealth-and-other-states/ar-BB15TH8e?ocid=msedgntp[/url] It's about time , hiring renta cops ( or untrained people as contractors who have no skills to guard people under mandatory quarantine is doomed to fail , as most of them just see it as easy gig and few understand how to use PPEs ) , QLD, NSW, NT, WA, Tasmania, and SA & NZ have all employed either the local police or the army or reserves to do this , having learnt from earlier failures back in March. I took the steps of contacting the national broadcaster (ABC - 7:30REPORT) and the local state member to express my concerns and suggest what needs to be done to try to try to reflatten the curve (in Victoria) My approach is to use my knowledge and skills and to become a SQUEEKY WHEEL that's hard to ignore by keeping to the facts and showing I can back my observations and am making suggestions that are science based rather than just emotion and opinion based. I am releaved the ADF has been called in to assist Victoria , I hope our state and federal leaders have the intestinal fortitude to make DIFFICULT and likely EXTREMELY UNPOPULAR decisions, this pandemic is not something to mess about with and procrastinate about. I also would like to see the National Cabinet ( PM , chief ministers , CMO , Premiers , state health ministers , and Head of the ADF and Heads of the state Emergency Services & Police heads ) meeting and reporting every day again ( like they were in March and April ). We flattened the once , we CAN do it again . I worry for young families who are having to deal with huge household debts ( lots have negotiated rental "relief" which will come back to bite them when the pandemic / "recession" ( I think depression of 2020s ) is over and they loose the short term protection against evictions , and when their bankers ( for credit cards and mortgages and secured loans ) expect them to make up lost ground on repayments that were put in hibernation or reduced because of financial hardship.
