Another shutdown not sustainable: PM

Canberra: Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said “the cure would be worse” than the impact of the virus, if he were to shut down Australia again. He said locking down Australian with stringent measures was “not sustainable”.

“I’ve heard that argument,” he said. “There’ll be doubling unemployment potentially.”
