There is a distinction between a manger and leader. A manager lives by figures and data, but lack intuition and vision. A leader listens and observes, but not necessarily takes the views of his managers and comes to the ultimate decision. Well, there are leaders like to be known as Consensus leaders.

Once the aged care homes were identified as hotspots, prompt actions and sweeping changes should have been made to curb the mounting fatality. This incident is not different from the Hotel Quarantine debacle, the meat works, compulsory wearing face mask, and silly romantic exemption.

Daniel Andrews has a lot on his plate, but he is really losing his grip, and the photo in the article depicted him as “I know better” body language.

How many more mistakes can Victorians tolerate before more lives are lost and the economy take much longer to recover, if it does?

This pandemic brings the ugly faces of our so called leaders in Australia!

With less than 1% of COVID-19 cases in aged care, why can't we visit?

It's time Morrison take a break on the Ruby Princess! He is over-stressed, and can't understand the simple logic that the lower percentage of cases in aged care home is entirely due to the residents being isolated from potential coronavirus spreaders and transmitters.

If workers cannot be tested to ensure that they do not pose any danger to the residents, what guarantee is there that the visitors can be tested to deem safe?

A healthy and strong infected visitor may be asymptomatic, but their contact with the aged and fragile residents is fatal!

I have a relative in an aged care home. Before the lockdown, my wife and I visit her very regularly each week. Only one or two families visited their relatives when we dropped by. It must be noted that most residents in aged care homes are demented, and cannot recognise the close relatives.

I believe the vocal bleeding hearts feel bad that they never visited their relatives before, and now they have time in their hands, they want to "repent".

I urge the aged care homes to ignore the pressure from the PM who just wants to play the nice guy by satisfying those vocal ones.

My wife and I trusted the management's judgement then, and during this difficult time, we continue to respect and support the decision! So, keep the homes locked down.
