My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. South-East Asian nations like Taiwan quickly learned with regard to COVID that they just had to isolate the sick and the vulnerable and that allowed healthy and productive people in businesses to keep working and earning money. The result is that the economy in Taiwan and other South-East Asian nations remained healthy and they had far fewer deaths than Australia. Minister, was there any consideration given in April to changing Australia's COVID strategy when Taiwan and other South-East Asian nations had already proved that their strategy worked and was far superior to your government's strategy?
