428 new cases in Melbourne today -
we're doomed.
It's an exponential increase in Melbourne.
Could be heading that way here in WA soon, as well.
If the footy doesn't do it, idiots like this certainly will:
South West woman charged after breaching COVID quarantine order and attending party
https://thewest.com.au/news/coronavirus/coronavirus-crisis-partygoer-charged-aft... Quote: A South West woman who recently returned to WA from Victoria will face court after flouting coronavirus quarantine to attend a birthday party.
Police allege that on July 11 the 29-year-old Eaton woman “attended a birthday party and socialised with a number of people, many of which were elderly”.
The woman had flown into Perth from Victoria on June 30 and was issued a 14-day self-quarantine direction.
West Australians returning from interstate are not required to go into hotel quarantine if they have an address in WA they can quarantine in.
She was directed to quarantine “within her suitable address”.
Huh? why are people returning from interstate still allowed to 'self isolate', Premier McGowan? Even Blind Freddy knows people cannot be trusted to self isolate whether they're from interstate or overseas.
Sheesh!! *bangs head against wall*.
Oh, and I've lost count of how many planes I've heard taking off from Perth Airport since 7:30am (its now 3pm here). Presumably, nearly the same amount have been landing from the other direction even though I can't hear those.
Good thing the borders (interstate and international) have been closed for the past few months or they might be overwhelmed with potential COVID-19 carrying planes.
