Just because it is high rise does not mean it is bad. I once visited old lady in one of these towers in Carlton. It was very high up, and she just loved living there. The rooms were small, but the view just spectacular, and she could see planes as they were about to land in Tullamarine airport, some 20km away. She was also happy that nobody can break in through the windows, and all it too to feel secure was having secure door.
But it is very crowded when large families with lots of kids live there. Obviously, you need to be very low income to even qualify to get a flat in these buildings, and many people are disabled and often metally ill. But the lockdown is not just to protect the community from "them" it is to protect the people who live there and are not infected. With thousands of people living in these places, you cannot avoid being close to people the moment they leave their apartment. They have been all tested now, and in the towers that have been cleared, the lockdown ended.
The lesson learned? We should all have bit of extra food in the cupboards, if you are on medication, make sure you have at least a week extra, and do not let your supplied of any run right down. necessity
What did VIC learn from the early Chinese experience ? or New York , Northern Italy , UK
Where is the danger ?
Winter time
High density living
Industrial centre
Not enough ongoing testing
Central heating
Gregarious social living
Low exercise in isolation
Low sunshine exposure in isolation
Why are deaths rates low in Africa ?
Fresh air , exercise , sunshine ? contributing to relative resistance ? possibly ?
