- The lockdown in Melbourne was not dissimilar to China’s Wuhan lockdown.
- Police and Medical Authorities did go through facebook (publicly, not any kind of hacking) for contact tracing and policing of people breaking health orders.
- It was not anti-constitutional (because Australia has a different constitution) and Australia has specific laws that allow (in emergencies like pandemics) the Chief Health Officers to override existing laws.
- There were no revolts, in fact there is continued wide spread support for the state government in Victoria, and the federal government in Australia for their response.
