This muppet knew he was in trouble with the virus and yet still flew. His Australian doctor had to dob him in. What a dickhead!

An Australian man is self-isolating in Wellington after testing positive to coronavirus.

Townsville Dance Teacher Andre Reynaud was tested by Queensland Health after returning from a trip to France, but flew to New Zealand before receiving results of the test.

Reynaud flew from Brisbane to Wellington on Air New Zealand flight 828, landing at 12:05am Saturday morning.

“I’m surprised and disappointed that he took the flight,” Ministry of Health Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield said 

Reynaud was identified quickly after his Australian doctor alerted New Zealand authorities of the test result. 

Typical of a teacher, he thinks he knows best. Fat lot of use self-isolating now, he’s just put several hundred people from his flight at risk through his own self-centred and stupid actions.

Reynaud told The NZ Herald he learned he had tested positive while having breakfast with his son at a Wellington cafe. 

“From there I went straight back to my hotel room and got in contact with health authorities,” he said. 

Bloomfield said he was not aware which cafe Reynaud had been at, but it was unlikely there was a high level of risk to other patrons. 

Reynaud’s workplace, Ann Roberts School of Dance, said he had been in contact with four other staff members on Thursday afternoon, but no students. 

The four staff members were all self-isolating in Townsville. 

Apparently this Aussie dickhead is feeling fine now. Well, that’s OK then too bad about anyone else.

This is precisely why Jacinda Ardern’s restrictions, if you can call them that, are woefully inadequate. It is because of dickheads like him that they will fail.
