>but the majority of states are currently not in lockdown
This is needlessly misleading. The majority of the population is in perpetual lockdown, especially Melbourne which has been in lockdown for the longest period of time globally under much stricter rules than Europe and the US.
"The majority of states" are not the majority of people.
Make no mistake, Australia is locked down. With recent changes, foreign citizens are prevented from returning to their home countries without approval. Not only are citizens trapped, but foreigners who had the misfortune of being here are now trapped as well.
You may claim there are exemptions, but I've seen piles of evidence that foreigners are being denied exemptions to leave even in extraordinary circumstances (leaving permanently to see dying family, for example).
