This time last year we were stuck in lockdown, worried whether we were eating and drinking too much. A year on, so much has changed. Now we're in lockdown and couldn't care less how much we're eating and drinking.

It's become quite obvious in Australia that the usual lockdown toolkit no longer works -- Delta is too transmissible and people are tiring of restrictions. One month of lockdown in Sydney has slowed the spread, but not much more than that.
