Here in Melbourne Australia, our state premier just made face masks compulsory, with a $200 fine for going out in public without one.

I can already hear selfish Karens whining about their "personal freedom", but I support this entirely. If you're irresponsible enough to put people's lives in danger just cos you're to lazy to wear a piece of fabric, a fine is the least you deserve.

Good that Victoria is closed off to the rest of the country to contain the spread... Don't really want to go back into lockdown again if I can help it.

Rest of Australia is watching... Stay safe.

Thanks man. Sucks that of the whole country I ended up in the one city that couldn't contain it, but at least they're going all out now with a strict lockdown and mandatory mask-wearing. Hopefully that brings the numbers back down again.

For my part, I almost never leave the house, and always wear a mask and avoid people when I do.
