    Australia’s second-largest city of Melbourne will begin its third lockdown due to a rapidly spreading COVID-19 cluster centered on hotel quarantine. The lockdown will be enforced across Victoria state to prevent the virus spreading from the state capital.http://apne.ws/3C0ZLP6

        Melbourne should just move to the US. No 3rd lockdowns here. We get 7k for everyone that dies from the Rona too!

        Rest of Australia has already had to do the same thing after their own hotel quarantine breaches.

        Pretty ridiculous to hold a international tennis tournament too. Especially when they won’t let their own people back in the country.

        I think calling it a “lock down” is what’s confusing people. If people were truly locked down the first fewking time they sure as hell wouldn’t had been doing that a second or third time! Mildly restricted activity is not a lock down. Americans have NEVER locked down either.

        So we in Melbourne had a second wave and we killed it with a 111-day brutal lockdown last year. We’ve been living extremely freely for the past several months. This is a quick one as our hotel quarantine system has had a small breach like other states in the past several weeks.
