We’re centered on Victoria … Our focus in the mean time right here is: what else can we include, the widespread group transmission within the north and west, the work the general public well being crew are doing proper now. What projection are we on proper now? Are we on a projection like New South Wales? Is that the case numbers we will count on going ahead? Or can we nonetheless, as Victorians, get this contained at a far decrease trajectory, which provides us much more choices over the weeks forward? There’s an enormous quantity of monitoring going ahead to try to perceive which of these projections we may be on and what distinction these completely different measures will make.
I feel by way of timing, we’re all annoyed. We might all prefer to know once we can do issues once more, once we can return to regular practices, once we can exit of Melbourne once more and when all these different issues change into doable. Our focus as a crew over the previous few weeks has been round how can we include the pandemic as a lot as doable? That’s what’s allowed us to launch regional Victoria as of midnight final evening, to see how we’ll watch the developments over the approaching days very fastidiously. If we’re seeing the virus proceed to be contained and we don’t see enormous spot fires in regional Victoria, that may give us confidence and open up extra choices going ahead. That’s all of the work we have to do over the times forward.
