Honestly, my choice would be to let the virus run its course, with no lockdowns.
Not sure I agree with that statement.
Having no money is a very hard position to be in in Australia, almost impossible if you are a citizen or a
PR holder.
Not a country on the planet has or are letting this virus run it's course, ALL are doing some preventative form of action - possibly the first time in history.
If this virus just cleared mostly the old (the pensioners collecting government cash and medical services) I doubt the government would be so concerned and splashing all the cash, so it is possible they are greatly concerned about it wiping out too many tax payers & need skilled workers immediately. This would require mass skilled worker migration to fill the immediate gaps for skilled workers.
I hope the government/s take a bit of time and work on when, where and how lock-downs happen if required & if I and my family need to take a bit more pain for that, it is ok with me.
Aviation is an industry that is taking a big hit, but it certainly will return.
