Last year, Melbourne was plunged into a 14-week hard lockdown after COVID-19 escaped the state’s hotel quarantine system.
It was later revealed that the Victorian Government had awarded a dodgy $30 million contract to Unified Security – a tiny security firm of only 89 permanent employees that wasn’t even on the Victorian Government’s preferred supplier list – who then subcontracted out to unskilled ‘gig economy’ security workers who breached health protocols.
The virus then escaped the Rydges on Swanston, which was linked to at least 90% of cases in Victoria’s second coronavirus wave.
