Leaked emails reveal government knew of problems on day one of hotel quarantine


Top bureaucrats warned senior health officials at the beginning of the Andrews government's botched hotel quarantine scheme that security guards were ill-equipped for the work and demanded police be called in to take control.

The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald have seen leaked emails between senior officials in leading agencies involved in the quarantine system, which was supposed to protect the community from imported COVID-19 cases.

The first email raising concerns was sent by a senior bureaucrat at the Department of Jobs, Precincts and Regions within 24 hours of the March 28 launch of the program.

It was addressed to several senior officials at the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), which was the leading agency for the day-to-day management of hotel quarantine, according to an Emergency Management Victoria operational document seen by The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.

"We request that Victoria Police is present 24/7 at each hotel starting from this evening. We ask that DHHS urgently make that request as the control agency," the email read.

DHHS was asked to address issues on the supply and distribution of masks and gloves, and to clarify policies on whether detainees could leave their rooms or order UberEats takeaway food.

The email was also sent to Emergency Management Victoria, which was jointly responsible for the hotel scheme alongside DHHS.

The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald have chosen not to reveal the identities of those named in the email exchanges, or to quote from the emails in full, because those involved had not consented to providing the emails to the media.

Premier Daniel Andrews announced an inquiry into Victoria's quarantine scheme, to be led by former judge Jennifer Coate, after protocol breaches by guards at the Rydges on Swanston and Stamford Plaza hotels were identified as the source of coronavirus outbreaks in Melbourne's north and west.

The outbreaks marked the start of a second surge across the state. Victoria recorded 177 new cases of COVID-19 on Monday after more than a week of triple-digit daily increases. In May and June, there were dozens of days when fewer than 10 new cases were reported statewide.

Stage 4 is coming. I read only chemists and supermarkets would be able to trade. Who knows?

Victoria's 217 new cases of COVID-19 have been described as "a relief" compared to yesterday's record-breaking increase of 428.
Victoria's Chief Health Officer Professor Brett Sutton said the numbers are a positive sign.
"Certainly a relief to someone like me who has been watching the daily numbers for six months. 217 is much better than a number above 400," said Professor Sutton.

Better than 428 but who knows what the future holds?

I remember many days not long ago when there were zero cases.
It somehow got out of control.
At least it's better than places overseas like Florida USA
where they get 10,000 new cases per day -
yet their population is smaller than Australia.
