Extraordinary details have emerged of Melbourne’s epic COVID-19 quarantine failures,
courtesy of the Herald-Sun and Sky News.

To summarise:

Security companies were being paid for workers that didn’t exist.

Lack of guards to properly secure the hotels due to these “phantom” people.

Guards were given minimal training (six hours of infection control training, some had only 5 mins).

Guards not following proper procedure – shaking hands, sharing lifts, sharing lighters, not wearing masks.

Guards wore personal protective equipment for up to eight hours without changing it.

Some guards let families go between rooms to play cards and games with others.

Some guards were sleeping on the job.

Some guards slept with guests.

Subcontracting guards at cheaper rate instead of standard guards.

Subcontracting guards switching shifts between hotels.

Thanks to these failures, a Bangladeshi man that was discharged from a Melbourne quarantine hotel after returning a positive test has potentially spread the virus to colleagues at a Woolworths store in the Sydney suburb of Balmain:

Yes Cods,
why weren't Govt. officials monitoring what was going on?
How can there be so many corrupt people
in sensitive security jobs?
Don't they have police and criminal checks?

I agree, cods.

But, this is just an indication of the sort of attitudes that are prevalent in our society today.

"She'll be right"
"Not my job"
"Nothing to do with me"

and so on.

I've seen it getting worse and worse over the years. Nobody wants to take responsibility for anything, so it would seem.

Reminds me of this from The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy (Life, the Universe and Everything):

Quote:

Any object around which an S.E.P. is applied will cease to be noticed, because any problems one may have understanding it (and therefore accepting its existence) become Somebody Else's Problem. An object becomes not so much invisible as unnoticed.

Yep, lots of that around nowadays. Much more so than when Douglas Adams wrote the book in 1982.

Good post.
Example of Somebody Else's Problem.

In an 80km/hr zone -
on the Princess Highway not far from where I live
there was a tree branch that was blocking half
of the right hand lane out of the 3 lanes.
It was causing cars to swerve from the right hand lane to the middle lane to avoid it.
Obviously it was a major traffic hazard.
It was still there 4 days later so
I pulled over to the side of the road and when there were no
cars I ran across & moved the heavy branch on to the median strip - grass area.
I drove away.

I estimate that over 100 police cars would have driven down that road in 4 days
yet they did nothing.
I also estimate that over 200,000 cars went past and did nothing over the 4 days.

I was the only person who removed the hazard.
That just goes to show you the attitude of most people in our concrete jungle.
People don't care about anything even if it affects them.
It's always Somebody Else's Problem.

Conservative estimate. More like 400 police car trips along that road in 4 days. It's a major highway.

So it's a number you plucked out of your arse based on fantasy and your usual stupidity?
