Am guessing the taxpayer will pick up the tab for this little excursion

It will cost the taxpayer a lot more if the corona virus really gets going in Australia.

As far as I am concerned it it the most sensible thing the government has done so far to contain the virus.

I would like to see it taken further and all people arriving from China should be quarantined for 14 days.

I feel if any politicians are in the group they should be held for a longer period.

You might feel differently if you went to Chinaton in Sydney and saw the number of people who are taking it very seriously and are wearing masks all the time.

My OH is there every day and has seen more and more people using masks.

Pneumonia can be very serious.....it is not to be sneared at.

Icy You obliviously dont have asthma, bronchitis or any other bronchial/ breathing probs, millions of people do and pneumonia can quite easily kill them

Yes. Apparently the ppl that died in China were high risk ppl in the first place.
