According to a new proposal discussed by the National Cabinet today, if the number of new crown infections surge, the epidemic hot spots across Australia may face a second round of "closure ".
Prime Minister Morrison (Scott Morrison) and state governors and chief governors of the territories are studying how to implement the "block ". As an alternative to state-wide and state-wide urban closures, it aims to preserve employment and keep economic open.
The U.S. government blockade has been estimated to have cost Australia's economic $3 billion as restaurants and cafes were forced to close. As a result, the political leader initiated new discussions on how to limit the scope of the embargo to smaller geographical areas.
The financial minister ,(Mathias Cormann), a financial minister, said australia needed to find new ways to target the local epidemic without a full blockade of economic.
"BC this way, we can act quickly at the time of a local outbreak to enhance detection and tracking, so that local outbreaks can be controlled in specific geographical areas rather than spread across the country ," he said in an interview with four radio stations. "
"vaccine is certainly the best outcome, for people in Australia and around the world. But whether or when vaccine will appear is unknown. "
"We must ensure that economic can return to normal as much as possible while this highly contagious virus continues to coexist with us. economic affairs must be managed in a way that ensures the safety of the epidemic. And that's why people install COVIDSafe apps on their phones so important. "
Although the new state has tightened restrictions on cafes, restaurants, clubs and weddings today, state government are still opposed to a statewide blockade. According to New State Finance Minister Perot (Dominic Perrottet), if the case surge, the state can not withstand the second round of blockade.
"I will do everything I can to ensure that this does not happen. "He told two GB today :" This is a double crisis. And we agree that our responsibility is to keep people safe, but it is also a economic crisis, and many businesses are struggling. "
But Coleman said the good news was that many other states were fighting the epidemic and urged them to keep their borders open if possible.
"Although I fully understand the need to contain localized outbreaks in parts of Victoria and New State, the number of active cases in Queensland, Northern Territory, South Australia and Tazhou is indeed lower than in Western Australia. In fact, the last time I checked the situation in South Australia and Tazhou, there were no active cases. There is little community communication in these states. "
