Comments by "John Woodrow" (@johnwoodrow8769) on "NSW premier facing criticism after decision to halt press conferences" video.
@shazdave8886 She DOES need to front the citizens every day and be subject to serious scrutiny of her decisions, such is the adverse impact they are having on people. It's the lack of scrutiny by the media that is the problem, not having to turn up each day and explain yourself. FFS, there are whole families locked in a tiny apartment, and she's inconvenienced in turning up to a 45 minute daily meeting.

The reality is these daily press 'lectures' are the only way for people to get some idea of what is occurring. NSW Health's weekly surveillance report is already 2 weeks old when it is released. The media reporting of numbers eg cases/deaths etc. is just about creating the most fear than can. Without the mostly lame questions asked by the press present, how can a person have any idea what is occurring.

100% agree. While the daily press 'lectures' are pretty lame, that's only because of the lame questions being put to her by the media. And them allowing her to get away without answering 99% of the questions put to her. It's hard enough to get some sort of understanding what is really happening without giving people less information. How else would anyone know that from nearly 30,000 'cases' in this current outbreak there seemingly hasn't been a single healthy person die.
