The state of Victoria, Australia has just entered the worlds strictest lock down.
We are at Stage 4 - no leaving your house without a mask, no more than 5km from your house (for the 1 hour of exercise allowed) and 8pm-5am curfew. Most small businesses closed, include barbers. Just supermarkets, liquor stores, drug stores pretty much.
6 weeks (for now...).
On day 1 of Stage 4, our state premier has already mentioned the words 'Stage 5'.
Laws have been re-written to allow verbal warrants over the phone to police to allow them to enter or seize property. That's right, the police can practically enter anyone's property at any time now because 'Covid'.
Military aren't super prevalent but have been seen unarmed patrolling popular walking tracks with police (groups of 4 soldiers + 2 police) issuing $200 mask fines and $1,652 breach fines.
Here are our cases (inflated by bribing people to get tested) vs deaths. Entire Covid nationwide deaths = 247.
FYI - in the month of Aug last year (2019) we had 100+ flu deaths (coldest part of our Winter).
