So apart from the 20 mislaid people in South Africa, the media have implied that health officials are taking # hantavirus seriously - and of course that we shouldn't worry. However, I was reading about the people repatriated to Australia on the ABC news, and the article was accompanied by a picture of the minibus with the people getting transferred to the quarantine place. It would seem that nobody bothered to communicate the correct fucking way to wear a mask to the repatriated, proving that nobody has learnt ANYTHING from the past 6 years of pandemic.
