No need for /s, judging by some comments made above Australians are as happy to house-arrest thousands of their fellow citizens with no trial, no anything, just because said citizens happened to live in the same building as some other people who got the virus. And all this is presented as healthy competition with neighboring New Zealand.

If someone would have told me one year ago that this discourse would have been seen as normal in a non-dictatorship country like Australia I would have branded said person as a lunatic.

It's additionally ridiculous that New Zealand is being hailed as a paragon of responsibility when all they have to do (as a comparatively small population island) is the courageous, genius act of stopping the planes /s
