Our analysis suggests that Australia’s combined strategy of early, targeted management of the risk of importation, case targeted interventions, and broad-scale social distancing measures applied prior to the onset of (detected) widespread community transmission has substantially mitigated the first wave of COVID-19. |
T155 |
330-504 |
Sentence |
denotes |
More detailed analyses are required to assess the relative impact of specific response measures, and this information will be crucial for the next phase of response planning. |
T156 |
505-637 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Other factors, such as temperature, humidity and population density may influence transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (Kissler et al., 2020). |
T157 |
638-761 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Whether these factors have played a role in the relative control of SARS-CoV-2 in some countries, remains an open question. |
T158 |
762-1005 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Noting that epidemics are established in both the northern and southern hemispheres, it may be possible to gain insight into such factors over the next six months, via for example a comparative analysis of transmission in Australia and Europe. |
T159 |
1006-1174 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We further anticipated that the Australian health care system was well positioned to manage the projected COVID-19 case loads over the forecast period (up to 28 April). |

T161 |
1355-1587 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Vigilance for localised increases in epidemic activity and in particular for outbreaks in vulnerable populations such as residential aged care facilities, where a high proportion of cases are likely to be severe, must be maintained. |
T162 |
1588-1712 |
Sentence |
denotes |
One largely unknown factor at present is the proportion of SARS-CoV-2 infections that are asymptomatic, mild or undiagnosed. |
T163 |
1713-1816 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Even if this number is high, the Australian population would still be largely susceptible to infection. |
T164 |
1817-1935 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Accordingly, complete relaxation of the measures currently in place would see a rapid resurgence in epidemic activity. |
T165 |
1936-1976 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This problem is not unique to Australia. |
T166 |
1977-2168 |
Sentence |

Many countries with intensive social distancing measures in place are starting to grapple with their options and time frames for a gradual return to relative normalcy (Gottlieb et al., 2020). |
T167 |
2169-2377 |
Sentence |
denotes |
There are difficult decisions ahead for governments, and for now Australia is one of the few countries fortunate enough to be able to plan the next steps from a position of relative calm as opposed to crisis. |
