Acting Premier Jacinta Allan was harbouring a secret as she fronted the media on the morning of December 31.
Earlier that day she’d received advice from the state’s public health team that recommended closing the border between Victoria and NSW.
The advice, signed off by acting Chief Health Officer professor Allen Cheng, was going to be unpopular.
