My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. On 12 April Minister Colbeck declared that he had planned for 'worst-case scenarios'. Given that 335 older Australians in aged care have now tragically died from COVID-19, does the minister believe that Australia is now beyond the worst-case scenario?
