Interesting to compare across these countries.

In terms of the number of cases per capita Australia is lowest and Ireland is highest.

In terms of deaths per capita NZ is lowest and the UK is by far the highest. Of course deaths are a lagging indicator as it takes four weeks on average to die from Covid-19, if you do die from it.

And in terms of test done, Australia has done the most tests per capita and the UK the least.

Broadly speaking both Australia and New Zealand are doing relatively well. I think being remote islands helps!
