Prime Minister Scott Morrison said authorities will be forced to use more draconian measures to enforce social distancing after some Australians failed to take the coronavirus pandemic seriously enough.
"Other states will be making other decisions about this issue and they will make further announcements today and I will leave them to make them." Questions over the need for enforceable social distancing rules come after the Health Minister Greg Hunt slammed thousands of people who flocked to Bondi Beach on Friday, flouting government health advice to remain at least 1.5 metres away from other people when possible.
SBS 1 thing I've noticed is it seems people in Sydney are to blame for most of the chaos. 1st P2P transmission, panic buying, stupid mass gatherings the list goes on. Melbourne is the next I say if they don't have the brains to do the right thing then the rest of us should force them
Good start need to look after the rural communities
Thanks ScottMorrisonMP 👍🏻 shouldn’t you have done this from the start along with international travel 😤
Domestic travel (with upcoming school holidays) should be BANNED
SBS Hi SBS team, a considerable number of Australians workers are under Sponsorship Visas. On the announcements the Government says Australians only. Would you please try to get info about how this measures impact sponsored workers or if Homme and Affairs are looking at this matter?
