This all started from one driver, right? But who did he get it from and why were they on the loose infectious?

We're they, the flight crew being taken from the airport to their homes to do home quarantine?

The first case in this outbreak was a Bondi limousine driver who transported international flight crews.

The infection, which was recorded on June 16, initially led to an outbreak mostly contained to the eastern suburbs, but it soon spread in every direction.

The driver was unvaccinated and not wearing a mask. He had tested negative prior to the infection day, but subsequently tested positive, and they believe he had picked it up from a freight crew he drove several days earlier.

But why were they infectious and why didn't they spread it to anyone else? They must have got off the plane infectious then headed to quarantine?

They are transported to hotel quarantine and then back to their next or return flight. They dont circulate.

They still aren't sure which crew infected him, as they are long gone. The infection then went via his wife not through other crews.

Had he been vaccinated and wearing a proper mask he nor his wife would have been infected. Police found no fault with him and no charges were laid. He was just an intermediary.

Alan Jones column pulled from The Daily Telegraph amid anti-lockdown, COVID-19 controversies

News Corp’s Sydney tabloid The Daily Telegraph will stop publishing columns from controversial broadcaster Alan Jones after weeks of anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown commentary.

Sources said The Daily Telegraph’s editor Ben English has informed Jones his column will no longer appear in the Sydney-based publication. The sources said the decision was made on the basis that the column failed to resonate with readers, a claim which Jones rejects.

As I thought.  So the Gladys system was to get flight crews off the plane and through the airport,  taking maximum preventative measures, because they could be infectious,  right? Good so far.Thumbs Up

And our objective is to get them into hotel quarantine where maximum preventative methods are again used. Ooh, I like this plan.Thumbs Up

So then we contract out the job of getting the potentially infected from A to B. We don't use our own trained staff because we love outsourcing? We hand out the job to Neville Numbnuts who has zero knowledge or experience of quarantine procedures and he hired Dave D1ckhead who knows absolutely SFA about infection control.Thumbs Up

Beautiful,  just beautiful.

You can then outsource the blame, which our Glad does so well.

I did hear somewhere that they were a cargo plane crew ?   Not sure if thats correct but sounnds right since no mention of infected passengers  , but if they were cargo then there would be no passengers to infect.
Along with your line of thought is this. Why was the limo driver allowed to drive unvaccinated ?  And why were the flight crew not vacced, and tested, before they left their home country ?

Even if they are vaccinated and tested overseas they can still be infectious here. Sounds like the plan is to assume they are infectious and get them into quarantine.  Which is why the transport to quarantine laziness and gross incompetence is so hard for me to comprehend.  How farking stupid are these people? I don't mean the ignoramus contractor and his ignoramus driver but the people who hired the contractor.

The blame in this particular part of the overall Covid screwup was whoever decided to leave the critical transport part of the quarantine process in the hands of untrained people. I bet no medical people were involved in that decision.

This one totally stupid action by stupid people  has led to all this we are facing now.  It was just about beaten here in Ozz, but still the incompetant head honchos let it get brought in from overseas.
You cant blame Glad.  She cant take on every single roll, so she  has people in  high positions that should take responsibility .  Whoever allowed this fiasco should be sent to a gulag somewhere in Siberia.  Angry

Question from media: When were you advised about how virulent the Delta strain was? 
Premier: I can't tell you exactly when but obviously we know the Delta strain is much more virulent than other strains.. 
Follow-up question: Long before the outbreak? 
Premier: I'll come back.

She didn't.
