  1.  @davidwilliams3856  Forced in a hotel with guards in Australia, I think only police military etc. doing guarding now, private guards didn't go so well, the UK has now improved it's self isolation on paper at least but until November some time it was a completely voluntary scheme with nobody even getting fines and you could stay in a household doing your self isolation and others already in the country could continue life like normal under the previous rules. Of course spread will never stop with such relaxed rules.

  2.  @importantjohn  the current rules in the UK don't compare to lockdown 1 in Australia, nobody allowed to go into the office. Lockdown 2 in Victoria closed everything but pharmacies, supermarkets, petrol stations and takeaway food. The only factories operating was meat works at the lowest possible capacity to process animals that needed to be processed. Lockdowns need to be proportional, people say no lockdowns in places where it worked perfectly and other measures worked well but not true , even Taiwan had a lockdown but short because under control quickly. Same applies to most Australian states plus New Zealand. If you are locked down partially for 10 months 2 months hard lockdown doesn't get noticed so much because all you see, is for example Queensland my state fully open with limited restrictions for 6 months.

  3.  @bchollis1451  It's not a no brainier actually, doing some half arsed measure will achieve half arsed results or delay spread a tiny bit from imported cases. China only ever exported 5,000 cases to the world if that and the US has managed to grow the virus very successfully. 14 days enforced hotel quarantine is the only proven successful method of dramatically reducing virus coming into countries or jurisdictions like states. Quarantine breaches will still occur occasionally but see case numbers per capita in Australia versus the US which are both federations where the states control the response within their borders. Australians normally travel internationally on a per capita basis a little more than Americans so nothing to do with size.
