Nice summary of mitigation, suppression and elimination strategies for Covid-19. Australia is actually not trying to flatten the curve right now, it's moving to suppression rather than mitigation. It still toys with the idea of elimination but probably left that too late. NZ is trying elimination because it acted early. Countries with big fatalities would love to be able to suppress but are stuck with mitigation for now. https://www.nzma.org.nz/journal-articles/new-zealands-elimination-strategy-for-the-covid-19-pandemic-and-what-is-required-to-make-it-work
