So, in the last two days we’ve conducted 40,000 tests , identified 79 locations and have found just 3 new cases.
I don’t wish to downplay the severity of the illness or doubt the awesome abilities of our experts, but “super-spreading” seems at best, an over-reach.

It's interesting how the AEU accepts the science on climate change when it encourages school students to strike but it doesn't on health.
Are they hoping for the education equivalent of the

Prof Nicola Spurrier has helped keep South Australians safe and calm during a global pandemic.
This is a grubby attack on a South Australian champion which the AEU must immediately take down and apologise for.
