Close the effin market down, think of the nurses you selfish Muppets.

And everyone is touching the openly displayed food. Folks, we have a winner.

Something familiar about this crowd

Good to see. Keep exercising your freedom.

There is a weakness in your online infrastructure. That’s why people flock to markets. That’s where authorities need to shut it down ASAP.

They believe in god, but not in virus till they catch it. Also so many don't give a sh!.

Yet people were fined today for going to put flowers on their loved ones graves for Easter 👎🏻

Looks like hong kong not melbourne !

Dissapointed. In this current time we all need to sacrifice our socializing 4 the health of all. If my sacrifice can give a baby = 80 years of life, a twenty yo = 60 yof, a fifty yo = 30 yof and an seventy yo = 10 yof to be with their family then StayAtHomeSaveLives worth it

Most of them look Asian... the bat eaters that caused this crap

Buying food is essential. So is escaping confinement to sit on a park bench for mental health. Except, tyrant DanielAndrewsMP prefers you go nuts & be subservient to the state. coronavirus COVID19 auspol PoliceState

Because majority are asian and they all have there PPE. Where do they get it from? heraldsun 3AW theage Danielandrew

You sure it’s not a picture of a market in Wuhan?

Poor management by the VicMarket . They should know better.

This is bullshit.. and we can’t go for a single person motorbike ride.. for no valid reason..

It might be time to shut down VicMarket if this is the best they can do! covid19australia

So why was the person who took the photo there as well?

Melbourne? Looks like Wuhan .

Long lens would make any aisle of the local Coles look the same.

So is the company/people running it getting fined the appropriate amount?

Who fuckin' cares?!

Where’s Premier Andrews when these places are like this.....go Stage 4 lockdown and shut down these places for a month......

You can do this legally but can't take your son or daughter for a driving lesson. illogical

Chinese. No risk.

Just closed down all the shops and make everything online only... You can't open usual crowded Market area & expect people to social distance themselves... it has to be done other way not voluntarily 😎

You should ask why was the market allowed to open

Look out its the Corona kings

Fools. Like those who ‘have to’ get stuff from Bunnings.

Looks like last Saturday morning at Woolworths

What do you expect with an all talk premier.

How can a viral infection be controlled when people have total disregard & understanding of the impact on others. This is why herd infection is what is likely to happen. We need to be prepared for another spike in contagions in weeks ahead & prepare for the long haul.

Calm down everyone, we all know the virus is spread at work or if you're teaching your kid to drive or washing your car at 2am in a public car wash. You are ok to shop amongst strangers. DanielAndrewsMP told us so. Sarcasm

This crap goes on DanielAndrewsMP but we are not allowed to drop food on doorsteps of friends and family whilst maintaining social distancing.

Ruh-roh it's the morally superior Melbournites at fault. No doubt thought they have a better reason than the rest of us for being out

Why so many idiots in Australia where are the police and why have not the operators not shut the place down it's a magnet for crowds and magnet for the virus

These people are disgraceful!!

blu_boys here is more bullshit!
