Sky News contributor Caleb Bond says a lack of testing resources and bureaucrats with health training “points to a complete failure” by the Andrews government to manage the coronavirus pandemic within the state of Victoria.
The Australian is reporting a “shortage of public health professionals in the Victorian bureaucracy is being blamed for the second wave of COVID-19 cases sweeping Melbourne, with a lack of contact tracers and an inability to train them at scale leaving the state more vulnerable than if the transmissions had occurred in NSW.
The number of active infections in the state from an unknown source reached 456 on Wednesday.
Mr Bond said “the evidence is mounting that the reason that this has happened in Victoria is because Daniel Andrews and his government and his bureaucracy were not on top of cases”.
“Daniel Andrews and his government created a second wave,” he told Sky News host Peter Gleeson.
