By the way he does not claim there are no cases; he admitted to one; man who somehow snuck in from South Korea. 


I read that too, but it was a "suspected case". Kim Jong-un only suggested the person may have been infected.

 

"According to KCNA, a person who defected to South Korea three years ago returned across the fortified border dividing the two Koreas with symptoms that suggested COVID-19. KCNA did not specifically mention whether the individual had been tested, but said an uncertain result was made from several medical check-ups of the secretion of that person's upper respiratory organ and blood."

fines should be a flat rate + means tested % of gross family income - as I can not imagine some  A-listers being to concerned with the poverty centric fines if they consider the need to break stage 4 restrictions or to cozy to care 

 

ps - not tax deductable either !

I do not think all our cases can be traced to the hotel and the guard. 

 

It was stated that it most likely stemmed from that one guard.

 

There are many cases they do not know where they came from.  It is very likely it was in the community transferred from one asymptomatic person to another.  Just because they did not trace any cases to those protests does not mean people did not get infected there. 

 

People would've been infected there but any protestor wouldn't want to admit that they got it there as then

 

the protest wouldv'e then be seen as a senseless/reckless and selfish act by the very same age group that

 

is driven this pandemic and that don't seem to give a damn about anyone else. 

 

Last time I heard, they had 750 of people tested positive who they could not trace back to known source.

 

Most of those are cases from the last few weeks where  they most likely have been infected by someone that is/was asymptomaic that may have been missed via contact tracing and hasn't come forward due to lack of symptoms.

 

  That basically means they picked it up on public transport or shopping for groceries, most likely from asymptomatic person who was never tested, and have no idea they had it. 

 

Or because some wont let authorities know where they have been or they have lied as to where they have been because they are selfish.

A lesson or two from England for local rural townies - England where it was believed and advised as such from "Health officials" that people in aged care homes are unlikely to succomb to coronavirus (my paraphrase)

 

 

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-08-03/advice-from-a-uk-care-home-that-defied-a-coronavirus-disaster...

 

 

as quoted therein 

 

"Don't wait for anyone to tell you what to do," he told the ABC.

The UK care home boss says Australian facilities shouldn't be afraid to impose lockdowns, even if it seems excessive.

"Act quickly. Follow your gut. If you think what you're doing is 'over the top,' keep doing it."

 

 

 

Off topic but: 

I believe Melbourne Police have been granted enhanced powers - i hope this includes rural located Police
