from The Sound of Solidarity · host solidarity.net.au

Lockdowns affected millions around the country. Melbourne was locked down for 262 days. Was this a necessary step to save lives or authoritarian over-reach? Why did the Victorian government respond so harshly? Who paid the price? Chip Le Grand, whose book Lockdown has been published by Monash University Publishing, discusses the issues. Chip is chief reporter at The Age in Melbourne and a Walkley Book Award winner.
