Well. As a nation the discussion seems to have moved to Australia having "defeated" the virus and life potentially returning to normal, minus the open borders of course, until a vaccine is found.

Should be interesting to see how things go.

But our Universal Healthcare System (Which includes advertising and dissemination of information and working with all rescue agencies...) has proven to be extremely effective... Something that New Zealand has mimicked successfully also.

Definitely haven't dropped the ball like the USA has done.

I agree. Australia is a country that definitely early was able to to take a better strategy:

If by "dropped the ball" you mean handled it better than most countries, then yes.

And Denial is just a river in Africa....

Handled it better than most countries? Having the largest number of deaths isn't something to be proud of.
"handle it better" common... I'm not an idiot.

Maybe that special Zinc that Trump was talking about might be enough to protect the American people... Whilst the rest of the world looks to Science and stricter  control measures.

better than most countries huh? I see the US in the bottom 10% for cases per million and deaths per million (obviously ordered by the less the better) over at worldometers

Please do elaborate on how the US has handled it better than most countries?

So far only Greenland has handled it best, 11 out of 11 recoveries, all clear.

Anyway I wouldn't make any plans based on the numbers coming out right now. Most Christan countries are reporting much lower reported cases and/or much lower reported deaths since Friday. So much it has already significantly dropped the 3 day world average down.

yea, weekend reporting already was wonky and Easter certainly means even more reports are delayed - we will see how/if that results in new spikes in the comming days

weekly averages might be a better indicator than daily results
