The difference here is that the first point of transmission was not in hotel quarantine but someone who was infected and came from South Australia
then travelled into Victoria and infected others who also travelled widely. That creates a nightmare scenario that wont be fixed by just contract tracing. The lockdown is necessary to prevent rampant spread of the virus and then contact tracing can work to identify those at risk and have them confined. With 650 contact locations contact tracing on its own faces an impossible task.

These new virus strains are more infectious and you will find that its likely that other States will be in the same dilemma if someone with the virus escapes the net and travels widely as occurred with the one that came from South Australia. The only way to avoid this is to break the back of the spread with a lockdown allowing contact tracing to do the rest. You mention NSW and I have no doubt if the same degree of potential spread points existed as the Victoria situation NSW would also go into lockdown. The only way States will be safe of this risk is for most of the population to be vaccinated.

But, but, the traveler from SA into Melbourne, didn't infect the 3 people that they live with or anyone on the plane from SA.
How infectious is this strain if his closest contacts didn't catch it. This is a fabricated story imo.
The multiple cases we are seeing are those who already have caught it in the past or are just fake to keep the numbers rolling in.

What's happening with Victoria's State of Emergency Powers extension, due to expire in a couple of days i believe, there's no such thing as coincidences. Perfect timing for the Socialist Marxist Communist Democratic Party of Victoria to extend it in the shadows of a Scamdemic. .
