Border Restrictions
The foot and mouth disease is causing airport chaos. In Indonesian countries, the disease has been spreading rapidly. The disease is most contagious to farm animals such as cows, sheep, pigs etc. It can be spread by shoes from returning travellers. Travellers are being advised to either deep clean or throw out shoes and clothing. If the disease comes into Australia it could stop meat production and the wool industry, which could damage our economy.
Inflation
Households around the world have been hit with inflation. Inflation is when prices go up because of high demand or lack of stock. It is said that inflation in Australia has gone up 6.1% from last year. Inflation was caused because people have more money due to staying home during COVID, meaning when we were out of restrictions people had money to spend on luxury items.

Live Stock Disease
In Indonesia, a foot and mouth disease is spreading through livestock. This disease spreads in soil hence airports make travellers wash or throw out their shoes. If this disease gets into Australia it will devastate the market, no milk, wool or red meat will get sold. Let's all hope Indonesia can fight this disease.
Inflation
Inflation is causing prices to rise making living costs skyrocket. Inflation is the reason why items are more expensive. Inflation is caused by war, pandemics and other things. Due to the pandemic and government handouts, people had more money to spend during lockdowns which have led to manufacturing not being able to keep up with demand pushing prices up in shops. Inflation is an issue around the world and challenging to fix, many families will face challenging times ahead.
