There have been hundreds more cases of coronavirus over the weekend in Victoria, with more and more outbreaks popping up. New South Wales is also battling its own outbreak, which has come from a pub in south-west Sydney. With the amount of virus now washing around the community, has Australia missed its chance at eliminating coronavirus even if it wanted to? On today's show: * Has the surge in cases in Victoria peaked yet? * Why are there so many cases per day in Victoria? * How do I prevent spread between household members when there is only one bathroom? And Norman and Tegan discuss a recent study in The Lancet about so-called herd immunity, and how even countries that have suffered terribly are still a long way away from enough of the population being immune.
