As concerned Tasmanians we believe that the time has come to fully lock down our population, as urged by Australia's medical experts, to protect against further spread of Covid-19 and to create some real certainty in our fight against the virus.
There is widespread support for a lock down among Tasmanians. We are prepared and committed.

The scale of this response is compelling and I am now initiating contact with key legislative offices to present these findings. This data will serve as the foundation for a formal policy briefing delivered to the Premier later this week.

Two weeks ago I would of dismissed this petition as an over reaction. But we need to learn from our global family Italy and Spain and China are warning us, but we are too complacent to listen. Sadly we have no choice. It’s either act now or let it spread rampant . But if we don’t act now it will be too late to manage.
This is the only way Premier. I, for one, am commited and ready. This will create certainty and do less harm to our society and economy.
We need lock down to stop the spread of this virus nation wide, community spread in Tasmania will happen soon enough and our hospitals won’t be able to handle it, please enforce a full lock down, even though most will self isolate there are a lot that are still so ignorant and reckless and are putting themselves and others at risk. It needs to happen sooner rather than later to save more lives
The delay is deeply concerning and smacks of purely economic concern. This is short sighted as far more will be lost if we don't lock down. Leaders are doing their best - I know -.but look at the evidence. Other countries in lock down have done so much better and are relaxing their restrictions now. Please. Lock.us down now. People, possibly someone you love, are going to die.
What seems like over reaction is the best that can be done!
Yessss lets be proactive rather than reactive

Make it a real lock down not a pretend one where tourists in caravans are still arriving. They still need to go to shops to buy food etc
