Added to above for better balance.

No, lockdown does not indicate management failure per se, it is the only way to stop exponential growth of the number of cases leading to an overwhelmed health system. However, if Australia was properly prepared and had testing kits and the network of testing centres to use them, we would be able to isolate people more selectively and effectively, reducing the hit to the rest of society. Isolation strategies are still a large part of the solution.Currently management doing the only thing they can to prevent a health disaster and creating an economic disaster instead. Truly a case of Cylla and Charybdis (if you know your greek mythology).
