Nearly 100 private security guards at South Australian mid-sized hotels have been fired or resigned for shocking breaches of protocol, according to police records.

A South Australian Police Report recently submitted to the state parliament corona virus The committee, which was announced on Sunday, said dozens of guards had quit because of a shocking mistake.

The report release comes a few weeks after the outbreak in a Adelaide medi-hotel trigger temporarily statewide kuncitara.

A guard was fired after they were suspected of being drunk because of the smell alcohol while on duty.

The second was fired after they disguised themselves as Australian Defense Force officers so they could park at the medio hotel for free.

Others were dismissed after they posted a video on social media filmed at a mid-sized hotel while one was fired for disorder.

The last security guard to be fired was caught sleeping at work guarding the floor where guests are under government-mandated quarantine.

Australians and permanent residents arriving back in the country have been asked to quarantine at hotels since March 20 when international borders were closed to stop transmission of the coronavirus from abroad.

Another 22 guards were fortunate to avoid the same fate and were instead suspended for nodding at work.

About 35 people were removed for not wearing proper personal protective equipment while 30 others were arrested using their cell phones while on duty.

South Australia’s chief public health officer Nicola Spurrier said hotel-medi-hotel protocols had been tightened since the November outbreak.

“When we previously had security guards sitting for long periods of time, up to 12 hours, you can appreciate how someone might fall asleep,” he told reporters on Sunday.

“We’ve improved our security model and we have more mobile security, we also have state-of-the-art CCTV and infrared sensors, to aid monitoring.”

Opposition spokesman Chris Picton has expressed concern about police figures following the November outbreak and the recent emergence of the UK virus from a traveler returning to hotel quarantine.

“This is a shocking breach and highlights the risks when we rely on subcontracted private security guards for our safety,” Picton said.

‘No doubt you are not a’ gold star ‘when private security guards fall asleep at work.’

Recently, travelers returning to Australia tested positive for the mutant strain of coronavirus that has plagued Britain and South Africa, reiterating the importance of quarantine systems to keep outbreaks relatively small in the country.

Acting Health Minister Rob Lucas acknowledged the violation was unacceptable but believed the hotel quarantine system was now “working relatively effectively”.

“I think the fact that we have seen this regular reporting of incidents … is an example of a system that is working and working relatively effectively,” he said. ‘

“We now have a security system that probably avoids all of those instances.”

It came after Victoria’s bungled hotel quarantine program, which was identified as the main source of a deadly outbreak that ran out of control and sparked a second wave.

Private guards were hired as part of a bungled program that sparked an independent investigation, locked Melbourne for three months and led to the disappearance of more than 800 Victorians during the state’s dire second wave.

Investigations undertaken to investigate the error failed to find who in the Victorian government gave the green light to hire private security personnel, as opposed to trained army or police personnel.

Potential quarantine violations have also been linked to the recent outbreak on Sydney’s North Coast, where 270,000 residents were forced into isolation.

Nearly three weeks later, the desperate hunt to track down ‘patient zero’ continues with health authorities admitting they may never find the source.

A new cluster unrelated to the Northern Beaches outbreak has emerged in Berala in southwest Sydney, which grew to 13 cases on Sunday.

The source is a patient transportation officer who delivers families returning from abroad to health facilities.

The worker became infected and passed on the virus to a colleague, who then visited a Berala bottle shop and subsequently spread the virus, it is believed.

South Australia is on high alert after outbreaks in Sydney and Melbourne and restored tough borders with NSW last Thursday.

The border with Victoria remains open but South Australians are advised to reconsider any plans to cross the border.

“I really hope the situation in Victoria will end soon,” said Dr Spurrier
