4 successes and 4 failures of Australia’s coronavirus response
Australia’s response to the coronavirus outbreak so far has been among the most successful in the world.
From a peak of more than 400 cases a day, the rate has fallen to fewer than 20 new cases a day.
Australia has avoided the worst of the pandemic, at least for now.
Comparable (albeit larger and more densely populated) countries, such as the UK and US, are mourning many thousands of lives lost and are still struggling to bring the pandemic under control.
