WALEED ALY: Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Professor Michael Kidd joins us now from Canberra. Michael, do we need a rethink here or are we just seeing a blip we expected?PROFESSOR MICHAEL KIDD: This is exactly what we expected.
We expected to see outbreaks occurring of infections across the country as we continue to live with COVID-19. The national response has been very much targeted around testing, then following up the contacts of people who test positive and moving in very quickly to isolate or quarantine people when this is necessary.
And this is what we're seeing happen in Victoria at present. It's concerning, obviously, every time we get an outbreak occurring in Australia, but it's not unexpected.WALEED ALY: So Victoria has.
