Well, I made a number of comments yesterday and I think that’s an accurate description of the way some people are behaving. That’s not every Victorian.
And it’s not … It’s not to do anything else other than, you know, call it out.
And ultimately, all of us have a massive stake in getting past this, in containing this virus and driving down the number of positive cases to that management level.
Because if we don’t we’re going to finish up with many, many people in hospital, and we know that, you know, for those who finish up in intensive care, there will always be a proportion who, for one reason or another, will not come out of hospital. They … they will die.
And we don’t want that tragedy here. We want to do everything we possibly can to avoid that.
We see it in states that are around the world that are a similar size to us – 5,000 deaths, 10,000 deaths.
Indeed some – many, many more than that. We don’t want that here. That’s why we have to stay the course and get this right.
Is it an easy process? Are these easy decisions to make? Of course they’re not. This is very, very challenging.
Would we have preferred not to be in this position? Definitely. But we can’t change that. There’s no rewind button.
We just have to deal with the circumstances that we confront and we all need to do it together and we all need to get the job done. And that’s what I’m 100% committed to, day and night.
