A local cover band who played at the RSL where Sydney s virus cluster started have become the punching bag for furious Aussies as thousands of northern beaches residents face scuppered plans in the lead-up to Christmas. Nothing Too Serious, a group comprising of northern beaches residents, have borne the brunt of frustrated Sydneysiders after they were named by Health Minister Brad Hazzard in a press conference this week and mistakenly labelled superspreaders . One particularly strong comment written in caps lock beneath the Facebook event for the Avalon RSL Club gig last Friday reads:

Unfortunately, the house included at least one person contagious with Covid-19. By yesterday morning, New SW Health had identified 23 people in the northern beaches cluster as attending the Avalon Bowlo that fateful afternoon, while 15 people attended the Avalon RSL two days earlier. Several people attended both venues. But now both venues and the entire beaches region are locked down, with residents facing A$1100 fines for leaving their homes unless for an approved reason, as NSW Health scrambles to avoid a disastrous Covid-19 resurgence that has already spooked Sydney and ruined Christmas for many families either struck by the virus or hit by renewed border closures.
