A propos de cet article

Paperback. In many ways, Australia handled the COVID-19 pandemic as well as any country in the world but what did we get wrong?Australias economic policy response to the pandemic was as effective as any other countrys and dramatically better than most. Was this inevitable? Was it luck? Was it the product of great institutions? Or a few talented individuals?Conversely, Australias public health response was far more mixed and disastrous in parts. While we bounded out of the blocks at the start, grave failings on vaccines and testing meant we stumbled, escaping the pandemic many months later than other countries and plunging us into unnecessary lockdowns. Lives were lost and livelihoods were harmed as a result.In Australias Pandemic Exceptionalism, internationally acclaimed economists Steven Hamilton and Richard Holden assess Australias public health and economic responses to the pandemic. By analysing Australias many successes and shocking failures they offer crucial lessons for future crises.This book pulls no punches on the good, the bad and the baffling in Australias response to the pandemic. Hamilton and Holden deliver a vital independent assessment of the hard decisions made and the powerful lessons that should be learnt from this extraordinary period. David SpeersThis is a book for our times, a compelling substantiation of the case for nurturing state capacity, and a powerful exposition of both the benefits and essential elements of timely, high-quality decision-making in periods of heightened uncertainty. Dr Ken HenryHolden and Hamilton deliver a sobering account of the duality in Australias pandemic experience near perfect crisis decision making in the heat of the moment, followed by a notable lack of forethought as the pandemic unfolded. In terms all Australians would understand, we played a blinder in the first half, had an awful third quarter, and limped over the line in front. Dr Nick CoatsworthAn important contribution to the literature of Covid-19 post-mortems. Johanna Leggatt, Australian Book Review In many ways, Australia handled the COVID-19 pandemic as well as any country in the world but what did we get wrong?
