What do you think of Australians coming home and the way they are treated?
Returning overseas travellers are ushered into the InterContinental Hotel for the beginning of their 14-day imposed quarantine in Sydney on Sunday
Apparently a lot are complaining about they are being treated now.

What is the alternative to compulsoy quarantine, let them wander around and risk infecting eveyone else. It would make the contoversey surrounding the Ruby Princess pale into insignificace. It has aleady been shown that a significant number of persons ordered to 'self isolate' chose to defy that order and went out into the community putting others at risk. They do not like the food, well hard luck for them, be thankful they have food available. I presume if Uber Eats delivered something to their liking the hotel would ensure it was sent up to their rooms. As for food sensitivities, I have neve been to a restaurant, hotel, airline, cruise ship etc where my food sensitivities have not been catered for. As for being locked in, I doubt it. No hotel would have doors that cannot be opened fom the inside. People can be locked out but cannot be locked in. Sorry to all those in 14 day quarantine in a hotel but this is the price you have to pay to keep our community as safe as possible. My wife and I have, at the insistance of our children, been in self isolation since 16 March and it looks like it will be a while yet before we are 'released'. Thank goodness we have Foxtel and Woollies have home delivery.
