Message from Premier Stephen Marshall
 

April 2020

The situation with COVID-19 has developed rapidly in South Australia and around the world.
I know that many people are anxious about what lies ahead. I want to reassure each and every one of you that the health and wellbeing of South Australians is the government's number one priority and we have a strong plan to help minimise and slow the spread of coronavirus in our state.
The government is focused on:
1. Protecting South Australians
2. Slowing the spread of the virus
3. Preparing health and other services to deal with the virus
4. Supporting business to keep people in jobs
We've set up dedicated coronavirus clinics, including in regional SA; we've rolled out Australia’s first drive-through testing clinic at the re-activated Repat; we’ve strengthened public health laws; and we’ve committed $350 million for an economic stimulus package to secure local jobs, keep businesses’ doors open and boost South Australia’s economy.
We will continue to roll out more initiatives in the coming weeks. We thank you for your patience as we work with the Federal Government as quickly as we can to implement measures to cushion the impact of this crisis.
I know this is a difficult time, but we are doing everything in our power to protect South Australians and ensure our state emerges stronger and more resilient on the other side.
Together, we can and will get through this.
Steven Marshall
Premier
of South Australia
