So we appreciate that nine to nine percent 31 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: of people are doing the right thing, but even if 32 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 1: one percent of people do the wrong thing, that can 33 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: easily spread the virus. So to be so serious, but 34 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: I have to be. 35 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I get it. 36 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: We get it larger at SAE. 37 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: So gladays, can we just this is great, we're easing 38 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 2: the restrictions. It's two people that you can have over now. 39 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 2: WA have gone to ten. Obviously they're doing a lot 40 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 2: better as well, and Queensland are starting easing their restrictions 41 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: as well. Has there been talk on whether those public 42 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: gatherings can be moved up to five to maybe ten? 43 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 2: Can you give us a bit of a time frame 44 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: of where we're looking with those. 45 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: We're definitely thinking about all that stuff and looking at 46 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: all that stuff, but in May we're making three big 47 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: changes already, So what we're keen to do is to 48 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: see what the to tell this after those three big changes, 49 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: because we know once you let people be a bit 50 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: more active, it does increase the number of cases, of course, 51 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: but what we've done during April is build up the 52 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: health system to make sure if we do get more cases, 53 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: we've got enough machines, enough equipment, enough staff to make 54 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: sure everybody's covered. 55 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 5: So in May were. 56 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: Going back, which is a big girl. In May we 57 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: know that a lot more shops are going to open, 58 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: which is a pretty big deal. And also the two 59 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: person rule. We we're letting people to two adults and 60 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: if they've got kids, where children as will go into 61 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: a household. And that's mainly to reduce social life the 62 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: laser because a lot of people live on their own. 63 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 1: A lot of people have actually stuck to the rules 64 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: and not left times unless it's been those four reasons. 65 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: And for all those people, there's relief around the corner. 66 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 4: So I allow, Yeah, for the pubs and clubs and 67 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 4: we've got your restaurants and the food and bev game, 68 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: can we not just are we at a stage where 69 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 4: we could go all right, you've got a one hundred 70 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 4: set a restaurant, that's your capacity. We're now allowing people 71 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 4: thirty people half of it. You know, when are we 72 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 4: going to see some relief for those guys? 73 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: Well, we're actually looking at all those options. And what 74 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: we do is every month we get all the data 75 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: in about what the number of cases and what level 76 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: of activity there is in the community, and then we're 77 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: making assessment as to what we can ease. So we've 78 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: got a list of all the things you can't do now, 79 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: and then we look at and to be honest, the 80 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: things we look at first, or whatever has the lowest 81 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: health risks, it has high economic activities. So whatever has 82 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: it's not very risky health wise because's going to give 83 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: people back their jobs. And it was actually found that 84 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: schools fit that category because when kids are back at school, 85 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: the parents are more productive and more confident about working, 86 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: so that will make it a big difference for people. 87 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: So obviously the schools, the extra shops opening, and also 88 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: being able to visit other people in our relatives and 89 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: friends homes. We'll see quite an increase in activity in May, 90 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: and we have to see how high that activity is 91 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: in terms amount of cases, and then we can make 92 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: an assessment as to what we can do. In June 93 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: and July and the months after. There is relief around 94 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: the corner because everyone's been walking together and doing such 95 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: a good job. 96 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 3: I'm so great. 97 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: It's good. We're doing great. 98 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: People in our starter actually listening to what they're being 99 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: asked to do, which is a big call. I'm so 100 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: proud of everybody, honestly. 101 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 3: Well, what about. 102 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: Gladys, What about the regional towns and I know that 103 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 2: a lot of them have been decimated by fire and 104 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 2: they're close for business now traveling within the state Gladys 105 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 2: and getting out of the city, is that still a 106 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 2: big burden for you or does that look are we 107 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 2: pushing towards that a bit closer as well? 108 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 3: Well? 109 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: With the two person real visiting a house, we're not 110 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: saying to you if your mum or dad or a 111 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: close relative or close friend lives in a region, we're 112 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: not saying don't go and visit them. But we're saying 113 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: this sensible. You can't have a holiday, but if you're 114 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: going to see a loved one who needs to see you, 115 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: or to reduce social isolation, that's okay. We don't want 116 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: to put those rules in place because these are people 117 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: who live in the bush. They might have a relative 118 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: or a close friend who lives in a different town. 119 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: So Queensland, for example, is putting a kilometer definition on it. 120 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: We don't think that's it's appropriate, because how can you 121 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: say that someone don't go visit your mother or your grandmother. Yeah, 122 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: but I half yeah, but I do want to stress 123 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: if you do. If you are visiting older people or 124 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: people who've got an underlying health issue, you have to 125 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: be so careful. Yes, like me, Like literally, I'll be 126 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: driving to my parents and standing in the driveway and 127 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: talk to them through the kitchen door because I just 128 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: don't want to risk them getting their approach in their eighties. 129 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to list them getting sick. And you 130 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: might be in the same situation. But even that contact 131 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: is better than nothing, right, It's better than FaceTime. And 132 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: some older people might say, darling, I love you if 133 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: it don't come over. So you just have to have 134 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: the conversations with families and think about that the kid's 135 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: going to go up and kiss them and hust them, 136 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: and you have to have those conversations before you do it. 137 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: With friends. It's different. I mean, if you're all adults 138 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: and all healthy, you still have to keep social differencing, 139 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: but obviously you won't be as stressed as when you 140 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of them. 141 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: Will you think you've been self isolating for years, and 142 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 2: we could see from your twenty from your twenty first 143 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: photo there because there was no one else around there, 144 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: no no but what that was? You know why there was? 145 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 3: I love that shot? 146 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: So was it a Hollywood themed party? 147 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: It was? And my skill friend and I did it together, 148 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: so she was Cleopatra and she had a book into 149 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: the dun so her thought and I was, yeah, But 150 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: I think what I wanted to do was I was 151 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: such a goody two shoes and very shy like social enter, 152 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: I think, and I thought I wanted to shock people. 153 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: So when I wore a blonde briefe lip with and like, 154 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: which I'd never do today, I don't know what got 155 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: in me. 156 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 4: But anyway, how many for the party?
