'Michelle Landry, the LNP member for Capricornia in far north Queensland, and Queensland senator Matt Canavan have written to Queensland premier Annastacia Palaszczuk to request her “urgent consideration for shutting north Queensland’s borders”.

"Kind Regards and Stay safe from the Social Club"

I will indeed try to stay safe from the Social Club. A clear vector.

I wish these fucking concreters across the road would go into lockdown.

This data is out and yet the APS is still insisting that staff should turn up to the office. Madness. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-03-25/coronavirus-covid-19-modelling-stay-home-chart/12084144
