It's totally ridiculous to compare the abattoirs to Ruby Princess; by the time the ship docked, it was well understood that the virus spreads on these ships infecting much higher percentage than in other circumstances. It was also known that they have number of sick passengers aboard, some diagnosed with COVID19.
The abattoirs was a different story, as the 1st guy diagnosed was not actually working at that time due to injury, so there was no reason to suspect it originated there. Unfortunately, about 4 out of 5 infectious people are asymptomatic. Ongoing testing large number of people is the only way to isolate clusters early. Thankfully, our Victorian government is doing that, while cautiously moving to relaxing restrictions.
By the way, my daughter got tested last week and was told that she tested "negative for COVID 19, as well as flu, and other common viruses".
By the time of awakening regarding the abattoir blight we should have known better the need for pre-emptive mitigation for a closed worker warm sweaty working environment dealing with animals who have ACE2 proteins.
I think this subject was discussed some time ago here...
The only pre-emptive mitigation would be closing down all abattoirs. There were guidelines given, it is possible that these were not adhered to in Cedarmeats. If you think that in boning room is a "warm environment" you obviously never been in meat processing plant; it's freezing! Although cold is probably what makes the virus survive longer. Heat kills it. But anywhere, in any working environment COVID19 will spread if infected person works there. The 1.5m will not work if the infected person spends 8 hours in the space, moves around and the virus just floats in the air.

no , just daily lab testing of all staff for SARS-CoV-2 , the actual virus
