, to return to work while waiting on COVID-19 tests during contact tracing efforts in May.

But instead only one section of the workforce was told to quarantine. More than 110 people connected with the abattoir were infected in the outbreak. A first Cedar Meats employee tested positive on April 2 and told contact tracers they did not attend work. Workers then tested positive on April 24 and April 26.

"I don't see a problem if they continue to operate post-testing, just practise social distancing," the public health official wrote.

Cont’d proof once high standards-Fairfax Media,hv bn ‘propaganda-4Coalition’, sensationalist,tabloid-type publications f Murdoch/IPA- Costello’s 9Entertainment R publishing biased political crap.Any semblance of factual, ethical news outlet -destroyed.

Here is a tip The Age. No one cares about this anymore.

But handled perfectly according to the then minister! What a joke

The owner is an ALP supporter & financial donor 🤷 always two or three different rules with the ALP depending on what group you identify with, how much you donate and how woke your cause is...

Is that really a surprise, considering all the deadly carnage created by the Andrew's labor government?

Ahhhh .... VicGovDHHS the mismanagement & incompetence that just keeps on giving. How can any senior bureaucrats at DHHS still have their jobs. Their stupidity caused the deaths of 800 Victorians & infected 20,000! VictorianCHO MartinPakulaMP MartinFoleyMP DanielAndrewsMP

There were mistakes but in the end the measures worked. Only a select few now continue to care about this. We have survived. We are stronger and have the knowledge to do better in future. Move on.
