About this Event
In many ways, Australia handled the COVID-19 pandemic as well as any country in the world but what did we get wrong?
In Australia's Pandemic Exceptionalism, internationally acclaimed economists Steven Hamilton and Richard Holden assess Australia's public health and economic responses to the pandemic. By analysing Australia's many successes and shocking failures they offer crucial lessons for future crises.
