CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

To be clear, they only way it will be around and for it spread here, we first need to let it into the country correct? That is, returned travelers, sports people, airline staff etc.

At this stage the virus is endemic, that is why they are finding live Sars-CoV-2 virus in sewerage water sampling in every Australian state. It is now in the "pretty much likely to be permanently in the environment we live in" category, it is not extinct and it is not "dead"!

Things could get bad quickly if it again goes zoonotic, assuming it was zoonotic previously.
(I think that debate is well and truly settled, even if we can't call it the China Bat Virus for political reasons.)
