This sort of thing has been brought up for more than a year. The federal government has shirked all responsibility from the start of this whole affair. States have requested federal support for establishing these sorts of quarantine facilities, and been rejected on multiple occasions. The federal government claims it is a state responsibility, as health is generally a state responsibility. However, constitutionally quarantine is a Commonwealth responsibility and therefore the federal government should be handling it. As a citizen overseas, states do not harbor much responsibility for my situation as I'm not a resident of said state, which is fair enough in my mind. But that means the federal government's dereliction of responsibility leaves me and many others out to dry. I'm just glad the country that invited me in hasn't been so incompetent and cruel. |
