The Victorian Government has copped flack on Twitter for building a large quarantine facility at the tale end of the pandemic, which will now lay idle after the State Government on Saturday lifted the requirement for unvaccinated travellers to complete seven days of quarantine.
The $580 million 1000-bed quarantine hub in Mickleham Victoria has housed only 200 international travellers out of more 180,000 people that have arrived in Victoria since borders reopened.
The facility is now looking to be repurposed as emergency accommodation for natural disaster victims and refugees.
