Description
This fact sheet shows that the bulk of Federal, State and Territory policy responses to COVID-19 have focused on economic protection - specifically on protecting or supporting businesses.
Understandably, there has also been a large investment in basic healthcare that has been able to support rapid COVID-19 testing, as well as necessary hospitalisations. However, there were also policies introduced that may ultimately end up harming Australia’s social progress.
