Many experts and most people think itâs time for returning travellers to be redirected to unpopulated areas for quarantine (ââCity on high alertââ, December 19-20). Leakage from quarantine in Victoria cost many lives and billions of dollars. And thereâs little doubt that the current outbreak in Sydney will ruin Christmas for far more people than those who want to return to Australia for the holidays. Surely the Prime Minister and the premiers should call time on quarantining in major population centres. Any cost benefit analysis will prove that decision as being correct.

Joel Fitzgibbonâs climate change stance looks set to completely derail Laborâs prospects in the next election (ââShrill, elitist, out of touchâ: Fitzgibbon lets fly at criticsâ, December 17). Not since âJoh for Canberraâ in 1987 has there been such a spectacular own-goal in the making. Labor need not endorse Fitzgibbon to run for another term. If they do, it will tell us everything we need to know about their suitability, and also their prospects, of forming a majority government in 2021/22.
