$117k raised after Melbourne apartment blocks sent into immediate lockdownNine public housing towers across two Melbourne suburbs have been placed under immediate lockdown, amid fears of a coronavirus outbreak. 9News Whole thing is ridiculous. It is absolutely POINTLESS trying to lock down a rapidly increasing number of individual suburbs, each having large numbers of routes of ingress and egress.
