Some idiot dropped the ball on this one! For people that don’t live in Australia, the state of NEW SOUTH WALES (NSW) is massive. Europe fits into Australia two and a half times, so that gives you an idea of how big NSW is.
How long did it take these idiots in government to work out this is serious before helping? This is a disgrace and someone needs to be held accountable for inaction. As if pandemic is not bad enough, add this to the list of incompetence in public health and safety.
NSW was ravaged by bushfire in 2019/20; and then straight into the pandemic and the mouse plague due to a long drought. So it has been heartache after heartache for many.
