“Concentration camps” is the term being used by US critics of Australia’s Covid policies, and it sounds about right to me. What other term best describes isolated high security facilities, patrolled by police and guards, where people are locked away? “Prison” is one other term, but that is consistent with it being a concentration camp. The Covid camps are probably going to be more … concentrated … in population than prisons, so the name is appropriate. Most facilities will have 1,000 beds, so no one will be sleeping on the floor. Still, it could not be worse than what we have had, where everyone’s home became a prison, as people were kept in home detention. At least in prison, you do not pay to be there and the state supports you.
