Comparing the condition of Aussies in lockdown to being in prison is disingenuous and unhelpful to the debate.

For example, my partner goes for a daily walk along the foreshore of the beach. On the weekend she'll go for a bush hike. This is all within the strict Sydney lockdown laws because she's staying within a 5km radius of her home.

Moreover, their lockdown means that I can go about my life more or less uninterrupted, because their outbreak is limited from reaching me.
