As best as I can determine the Australian plan for a managing the emergence of a novel virus pandemic which was affecting Australia was this:
It is certainly is a very comprehensive plan, but it does see to be essentially more of an outline of many of the things that could considered IF a novel virus emerged. On the ranking that Oz Mark mentioned the USA and UK ranked highly as did Australia.
So being most prepared has also been now been shown as being willing and able to actually act and to do so quickly, decisively and well. The UK and USA both have failed dismally in this. Australia has done very well. Taiwan was a step ahead as for them it was a matter of when it happened rather than if and so were actively waiting for such a virus to emerge.
Recovery measures such as Jobkeeper were not mentioned and I would tend to believe that was very much a measure developed due the rapid and scale of employment shutdown that occurred.
Issues such as PPE were discussed and there is much detail on who is responsible for what. But for example on PPE were were caught should by not enough PPE being in our national stockpile, let alone in our hospitals who in the main were not maintaining stockpile either with the assumption that PPE could be bought as required. Local manufacture of PPE within Australia had almost ceased. So this indicates to me that the granularity was lacking as while the need for PPE was clearly highlighted no steps were taken to ensure adequate supply of PPE in a pandemic. Though some or all of the agencies may have had more detail.
While obviously each new virus will be different it is interesting for example that cruise ships were rated a low risk for infection spread..
To me this is quite different to Taiwan who were more on what they would do WHEN a novel virus emerged, and in particular one from China, and were thus on a more active footing than Australia. They were more active in looking, and had all their steps ready to be rolled out when it happened. Australia was more to flesh out their actions if it happened. Would Taiwan has been as impressive if the virus had emerged in say South America we will never know, but I suspect that they would have.
