We've stopped social distancing and it's causing problems
A month or so ago, we had social distancing sorted. We weren't hugging or shaking hands and we were keeping our distance. But as the threat of coronavirus reduced, it seems we've slipped back into old habits. And according to experts, the complacency could cost us dearly. On today's show: * What is the "R value" for coronavirus nationally? What about Victoria? * What is happening to social distancing? Are we getting worse at it? * Could the spike in Victoria be due to the colder weather? * How does genomic testing of the virus work and is this how Victorian authorities know that the latest outbreaks are from family transmission? * When going to family gatherings, it's not pleasant when relatives are offended by maintaining physical distance from them. How do we do this better?
