It would be hard for children and they do need fruit and veg, but they knew it would happen

2 weeks is not a life sentence, do they want to spread the virus, what about the poor people that may be in Hospital for weeks

1 guy here in NZ doing a whinge about 2 weeks in a hotel is like being in prison.

Yeah Prison has room service the internet and tv and dont forget that room mate 🙂

I am surprised so many have been to prison so they are able to make a proper comparison.

Niece was lucky she arrived before the ruling, otherwise she would be quarantined in Syndey, but she still has to self isolate, sharing a house with two others on the plane flight costing them $300 each per week.. Accommodation only.

Hotels are not designed for disease mitigation - for example many have sealed windows so can not disperse any pathogens , also have common ducted ventilation without effective filters or anti-viral devices installed .

Sounds like they would rather be potential mass murderers than inconvenience themselves for a mere two weeks. I feel so sorry for the poor things having to endure such terrible hardships in order to save lives LOL

Well - I gave it a try.

Saved a good sneeze - aimed it at the airconditioner - fell short by a good few metres.

And still not sure ' mitigation ' ............................LOL

mitigation

/mɪtɪˈɡeɪʃ(ə)n/

You'll have to be more ' concise '.

Dust - where?? - my home has never been so ' clean '.

If I get reallly bored - I can do it all over again.

No hitching - here.

PS. what the heck has ' dust ' got to do with anything.

Their initial report.

https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/who-china-joint-mission-on-covid-19-final-report.pdf

Routes of transmission COVID-19 is transmitted via droplets and fomites during close unprotected contact between an infector and infectee.

Airborne spread has not been reported for COVID-19and it is not believed to be a major driver of transmission based on available evidence;however, it can be envisagedif certain aerosol-generating procedures are conducted in health care facilities.

Fecal shedding has been demonstrated from some patients, and viable virus has been identified in a limited number of case reports.

However, the fecal-oral route does not appear to be a driver of COVID-19 transmission;its role and significance for COVID-19 remains to be determined.

Viral shedding is discussed in the Technical Findings (Annex C).Household transmission

In China, human-to-human transmission of the COVID-19 virus is largely occurring in families.

The Joint Mission receiveddetailed information from the investigation of clusters and some household transmission studies, which are ongoing in a number of Provinces.

Among 344clusters involving 1308cases(out of a total 1836 cases reported) in Guangdong Province and Sichuan Province, most clusters (78%-85%)have occurred in families.

Household transmission studies are currently underway, but preliminary studies on going in Guangdong estimate the secondary attack rate in households ranges from 3-10%.
