The Australian army transfers residents from Covid-19 areas to quarantine camps

The Australian military has begun forcibly removing residents of certain areas of the Norther Territories Howard Springs Quarantine Camp in the Darwin area after nine new cases of Covid-19 have been identified in the Binjari community. The measure concerns Binjari and the nearby Rockhole

The Howard Springs Quarantine Facility has a capacity to quarantine 2,000 international and 1,000 internal travelers, but would now be used for Australian citizens residing in the Northern Territories.
"The residents of Binjari and Rockhole no longer have the five legitimate reasons to leave their homes with a lockdown," said Northern Territory Prime Minister Michael Gunner, referring to the country's five permitted reasons for avoiding the lockdown. food and supplies, exercise for up to two hours, care or assistance, work or education if it cannot be done from home, and get vaccinated in the closest place possible). So, having removed these basic reasons, all that remains is deportation.

"They can only leave for medical treatment, in an emergency or as required by law."

“It is very likely that more residents will be relocated to Howard Springs today, and that affects both the positives and their close contacts,” he continued, adding “We have already identified 38 close contacts from Binjari but that number will increase. Those 38 are transferred Now. "

“I contacted the Prime Minister last night. We are grateful for the support of around 20 ADF staff, as well as army trucks to assist with the transfer of positive cases and close contacts – and to support communities. Today we are doing an assessment of what extra resources we might need from the Fed and the Prime Minister is ready to help further – thank him for that. "

We are perhaps the first case in the world of potential deportation of the entire population of a small town. Australians never thought they'd get to this point, but this happens when minority rights are not sufficiently protected.
