Well its a week later and while it could all still go pear shaped, I think you would have to agree the Marshall Liberal government in South Australia appear to managing the recent COVID outbreaks pretty well so far. ( of note is the chart on daily test numbers showing major rises in testing )

Poultry worker identified as one of Victoria's coronavirus victims 

 

A 51-year-old man who worked at Turosi's Golden Farms Poultry plant near Geelong has been identified as one of Victoria's 228 coronavirus-related deaths, the company's chief executive said. 

     

“From Newcomb, Geelong, he had worked at Turosi for more than 15 years and was a valued member of the Geelong team,” Phil Hand said.

      

Mr Hand said the company was told late on Sunday that the man had tested positive for COVID-19 and had died.

      

The DHHS lists 44 cases of coronavirus as being linked to the Golden Farms Poultry plant.

       

Mr Hand said the company’s sincere sympathy went to the man’s family and friends and added it would provide what support it could.

Stay safe.....level 2 is not too bad to cope with.  NZ was at level 2 when I left at the end of May.   Haha with the phone alert.  I remember they were testing it when I was there.  Funnily my phone let rip with the siren thing but Mum's never did (it certainly made the two of us jump)

From the article, sounds like the issue has been fixed - not just for this doctor but for other hospital workers. Credit goes to the Council for responding quickly and positively.
