Even in your own post you mention 'visiting family' which is fine if they are in need of 'care' but if its just 'socialising' then it comes under non essential travel. People just need to reign it in for a while. Go to work or sit at home and go out only for essential shopping/doc visits etc. Just suck it up. We're all in it together.
I'm not sure people fully understand how lethal the 'potential' is of the virus. Yes, the numbers aren't as bad statistically as other viruses we've had before, but we are only at the beginning. Australia being an island has the potential to handle it better than other larger continents but it relies on everyone doing their bit.

I can honestly say I haven't met anybody yet who doesn't care..Possible exception is little kids ,and only because they just don't comprehend it . My point is ...keep it simple . don't flood us with never ending facts and warnings because IMO that'll cause the sensory overload and the attitude in the finish that it's it all getting a bit much to pay any attention and switch off altogether. Not yet of course but what if this bombardment of stuff goes on for six months or more.? It's got to be handled with a lot of care and attention to prolonged periods of the inability to have something like a bit of normality . Can you see my long term concern in that regard ?
