The Senate’s COVID-19 committee released its final report yesterday. Its key recommendations include establishing a royal commission to examine Australia’s response to the pandemic, setting up a Centre for Disease Control and publicly disclosing all reports of the national Covid commission.
The committee found that there were “significant failures” in the federal government’s handling of the pandemic, including failing to establish stand-alone quarantine facilities at the outset and failing to secure sufficient supplies of vaccines when they became available.
