2.One ventilator, 400 people with respiratory illness. Yarrabah FNQ community is ‘incredibly vulnerable.
More than 200 people have been forced into quarantine in a remote Indigenous community, with vulnerable elders living alongside possible coronavirus cases due to a lack of isolation facilities.
Key points:
- Residents of indigenous communities say overcrowding makes physical distancing and quarantine measures difficult
- The overcrowding means some residents with coronavirus symptoms are fearful they’ll pass the disease on to older residents
- The Federal Government has announced measures to combat the spread, with the Minister for Indigenous Australians saying “we will get through this”
