Coronavirus spreads in Sydney

There is evidence that the virus spreads from person-to-person.

The coronavirus outbreak has spread to 46 countries other than China — and now seems to be spreading faster outside China than inside.

biosecurity laws

Biosecurity and human health zones

The Biosecurity Act 2015 allows the Director of Biosecurity to establish biosecurity zones within Australia to monitor, control and respond to pests and diseases.

Monitoring zones
When a pest or disease that poses an unacceptable level of biosecurity risk enters, emerges or establishes (or is likely to) in Australia, monitoring zones can be established. Biosecurity officers have the power to monitor, control and respond to biosecurity risks within the boundaries of the zone. They typically conduct activities like setting traps and installing monitoring equipment within the zone.

Coronavirus spreads in Sydney

Supermarkets across Sydney have been stripped bare of some essential items, after the number of coronavirus infections in NSW jumped to nine yesterday.

Toilet paper is sold out at several stores from Hurstville in Sydney's west to Double Bay in the east, and customers are also stockpiling handwash, sanitisers, tissues and painkillers.

NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard has asked Australians to stop shaking hands to reduce the risk of contracting coronavirus.

"I'm not going to say don't kiss, but certainly you could be exercising a degree of care and caution with whom you choose to kiss," he added.

Anne Frank（2）：

The Nazis started persecuting people who they didn't think were worthy members of society, mostly Jewish people like Anne and her family. The Nazis discriminated against Jews and took away their rights. Eventually, they went one step further and planned to wipe out Europe's Jewish population, so they started arresting them and sending them to thousands of specially built prisons called concentration camps. Millions of Jewish people were deliberately killed or died from terrible living conditions and these events are now known as The Holocaust.

Anne Frank（3）：

The Frank family thought they'd be safe in the Netherlands, but in 1940 the country was invaded by the Nazis and in 1942 Anne's older sister Margot was ordered to go to work in a camp. So, the Franks went into hiding in a secret apartment behind her dad, Otto's, business. They were joined by a Jewish man and another Jewish family and they were helped by Otto's loyal friends. Anne continued to write in her diary as she lived a strange new life.

ANNE FRANK DIARY ENTRY JULY 8, 1942: It's as if the whole world has suddenly turned upside down, but as you can see, Kitty, I'm still alive, and that's the main thing.

The place they lived in was small and cramped and they could never go outside. Everyone had to stay completely silent during the day so that people on the other side of the walls wouldn't hear them and report them to the Nazis.
