When it first happened I'd have shut the boarders to international arrivals, locked everyone down for 6 weeks, any returning citizens would get a gaol like 2+ week isolation, properly enforced.
That should have hit it on the head.
Then reopen everything with ALL international arrivals getting a mandatory quarantine at THEIR expense, including citizens after a certain date.
In hindsight that may have been overkill but with the information at the time that is what I would have done. 6 week hardcore shutdown then hard boarder policing. No self isolation. No exceptions.
