Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. How does a city go from being the worlds most liveable to its most locked down? For 262 days, Melbourne was cocooned by stay-at-home orders. Businesses were forcibly closed, classrooms shuttered, and community and social life relegated to an impersonal online world. To stop the spread of a virus, people were prevented from saying goodbye to dying loved ones, children were separated from their parents, and playground equipment was taped off like a crime scene. Through successive COVID winters, the state of Victoria was isolated from the rest of the federation and Melbourne from the rest of the state.Our remarkable success was to eliminate the virusat least for a timeachieving something no other city had. We kept alive people who otherwise would have died and prevented serious illness in others. As Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews declared when Melbourne emerged from its final, protracted quarantine: We have saved lives, we have kept people safe. But this came at a severe cost, one unlikely to be fully understood for years to come.From 25 January 2020, the day a man recently arrived from Wuhan walked into the emergency department of a Melbourne suburban hospital and Australia recorded its first case of COVID-19, journalist Chip Le Grand has reported on the pandemic from his home city, detailing the Victorian Governments machinations in response to an unprecedented public health crisis. Lockdown is the story of Melbournes singular pandemic experience, an examination of the decisions taken in pursuit of COVID-zero, and the consequences of those decisions. How does a city go from being the world's most liveable to its most locked down? For 262 days, Melbourne was cocooned by stay-at-home orders. Through successive COVID winters, the state of Victoria was isolated from the rest of the federation and Melbourne from the rest of the state.
