“Strongly recommended” doesn’t work... why are we so afraid of the do-gooders and civil libertarians to make some procedures compulsory?

Has no one learned from Victoria Chancellor Pileoshite on Queensland isn't even testing people who volunteer for testing and Tas recommends testing. In quarantine it should be mandatory ffs.

Why you would avoid a test is beyond belief. Certainly compel them by law to submit to testing. Lives are at stake here.

Please make this mandatory, it's a public safety matter.

I have to wear a mask - they have to be tested -

That should really be mandatory.

My daughter did two weeks mandatory quarantine in Hobart and couldn’t get tested despite repeated requests.
