I pulled open my first Christmas cracker of the season last week. With another person. At a real-life Christmas party! Slipping on the paper crown and reading out the cheesy joke (What athlete is warmest in winter? A long jumper!) as my mates boogied to the original Mariah Carey Christmas album and decorated gingerbread Christmas trees with icing guns on a sultry, frangipani-scented summer evening, it felt like a real turning point. 
When Australia went into lockdown in March, I was hopeful it wouldn’t last for long. It has been nearly a year now since Australia closed its borders to the world, and we’re still not virus-free yet. But while plenty of mistakes were made in the process of containing the coronavirus in Australia, we’re one of the world’s success stories, with less than 60 active cases across the country at the time of writing. Not bad for a nation of 25 million.
