My question is for the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Aged Care, Senator Colbeck. Today 344 new cases have been reported in New South Wales, with 62 people currently in ICU and, tragically, 34 total deaths from COVID-19 during the current outbreak. The Prime Minister has said that COVID will be 'like the flu' and that we should 'treat it like the flu'. Does Mr Morrison stand by this statement?
