Thanks for asking, I live in South Australia which does not have the population of the eastern states of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. We are in sort of lock down but allowed out to shop etc, all arrivals from overseas had to do a 14 day self isolation which involved the police doing regular check ups but as of last Monday all international visitors are banned and all state borders closed. The government has enacted no more than two people allowed together out in public and all public have the 1.5 metre clearance, much the same else where in the World. All old age homes are in a 24 hour 7 day lock down and some states have closed all the schools. Same as you no restaurants or pubs only take away and the government is splashing around a lot of money for everyone to keep the economy going, so far 470 billion dollars, remember we only have 27 million people in our country. We are also very fortunate to have an excellent universal health care system. Most of the people with the Corona were visitors from overseas, fortunately the numbers of infected people has levelled off and hopefully will start reducing. Almost forgot, our annual Chrysler mega weekend was to be held in Adelaide South Australia in March but was cancelled, that hurt.

Update, New South Wales State government in Australia as of today (end of March) introduced $11,000 fines and or six months jail if you flaunt the isolation or separation rules, wow that is heavy but shows how serious the government is.
