I think it would have happened as soon as we had a single case of the virus in Australia @terry123
it’s not much good shutting the gate after the horse has bolted
 

I'd say that I'm surprised that more all countries haven't enacted a similar ban, but having done a fair amount of cruising throughout the Caribbean, those countries' dilemmas are pretty clear. Port fees and tourist dollars provide a large portion of their economic lifeblood.

Globalization is showing its vulnerable sides right now. Many on here are seeing the folly of relying on other countries as the supply chain for medications and other necessities.

Likewise, cities countries whose fragile economies have become dependent on tourist dollars will likely soon have their own regrets.

p.s. Australia is on my bucket list. ♥
