Rather than rehashing the usual arguments, when is the last time we had a death attributed to COVID in Australia? If we measure the appropriateness of the State's methods and tactics for handling outbreaks, and contrast that to what happens in the rest of the world, Health authorities and State Governments in Aust are doing Fantastic job. The anti-lockdown ranters need to come up with some argument that lockdowns do not work. I have skin in the game, I don't want to catch it. Businesses that are hurting need to get angry at the virus, not the ways it is being handled.

X2 well said.

Perhaps the anti lockdowners could change places with those o'seas trying to get back to our lockdown environment.

edit .. If closing borders don't work then why does the Fed Govt not open our international borders as they recommend for the States. A bit of a double standard all round methinks.

Who's playing politics here?
