Anyway, just came back from dinner with the family. Went to a restaurant, had a bottle of good Barrossa red and all is good.
There’s a possibility you can’t read all of this article but the heading pretty much covers things:

Whole situation was a joke.
The outbreak initially escaped from one of the Medi Hotels ( Peppers Hotel in Adelaide CBD). A security guard and hotel cleaner caught it.
The Security Guard had a second job working in a pizza shop but lied to authorities saying he only picked up a pizza. So they flipped thinking it was community transmission. He was working for cash money and defrauding the Tax Department (both business owner and worker). As if any business hasn't done that before.
The scapegoating of this poor fella though was diabolical. Those responsible are the Government for their lack of leadership and jumping off the deep end and closing an entire state down based on the testimony of one person. Very poor form. Government is responsible.
Friggin Marshmallow and Spewrier are responsible for this.
