Nationally we need to get to some agreeance on how to handle outbreaks moving forward.
It's pretty simple I think. NSW/ACT and QLD seem to be able to locate and squash outbreaks effectively and quickly whilst keeping their economies open and freedom of movement minimally managed. I'd say WA, NT, SA, TAS are untested as yet, having more relied on border closures.

If Victoria could be brought up to NSW/QLD forensic health standards then that would go a long way. Also, we may need to rethink completely open borders until we get the vaccine. Who says that it's OK to fly to other states for holidays just because we may be able to? Try holidaying in your home state maybe.

A bit of personal responsibility would go a long way. Guv-mints can only do so much.
