Australia needs to go hard and fast to tackle coronavirus

This article resonates what I have been critising the governments and medical officers for their indecisiveness and unclear advice that confuse the public.

If social distancing is to be enforced, where are there queues at supermarket check outs, ticketing machines, bus/tram stops and train stations, canteens?

Further to that argument, why are schools remained open? Students are in enclosed areas for hours. How can a teacher show a student how to fix a problem if the teacher is 1.5m away instead of sitting next the student? Are there any group assignments and discussions?

I wonder how a traveller cope upon arrival in Australia and goes straight into self-isolation. That was my reason for abandoning my overseas holiday plan, because I have no idea to fill my stomach during my quarantine period.

Thank you for reading.
