Thought the same thing. Premier mentioned that Victoria supplies itself and other parts of Australia, so can't afford to go off line on the abattoirs. Have any of you done contam work of any kind? The only thing I can think is maybe they reduce the people in areas where likely to get infected, and then apply heavy PPE/ protocols of removal and cleaning for those remaining. This kind of work is slow, and you have to be methodical in how you protect yourself and get out of the gear too. Eg Asbestos work, nasties like PCBS, VOCs, radiation... Not impossible to do, but things slow down, comparatively.
