Covid 19 -

I'm not convinced that we are even close to ready to start large gatherings anytime soon for things like AFL and NRL. From the clustered outbreaks we've seen at Cedar Meats (91 cases) and Fawkner McDonalds (10 cases), I would consider that putting large numbers of people in close proximity for 2 hours is a recipe for disaster.

At least those two clusters were reasonably easy to trace and contain but the multiplier effect from a single infected person at such an event could be a potential nightmare.

Maybe in another month when AFL is planned to start things will be different but I'll be surprised.
