Angry How can they get is sooo wrong??!

I normally don't comment on the news but this has left me stunned. It seems our bureaucracy can't manage to deliver covid messages in foreign languages. They have managed to stuff up translations into Chinese, Arabic and Farsi and made themselves look like fools. I mean, it's not as if there is a shortage of people able to do the job. SBS have a subtitling service that could do the job. I know native speakers of each of these languages who have completed a PhD in English and a few of them wouldn't mind a bit of casual work.
