One potential study would be a similar comparative analysis of mortality data from Melbourne Australia.
- Longest and strictest lockdown in G20 countries.
- Quality health records, low COVID deaths (as they were aiming to eradicate COVID risk altogether).
Factors difficult to adjust for would be the relatively high (compared to other countries) levels of economic support provided by Australia to those in lockdown, easing rent and utility bill concerns, etc.

Not all lockdowns are equal, after all.
