Australia has been given a seat at the table of a select group of countries which responded quickly to the COVID-19 outbreak and are now restoring their economies to normal.


Dubbed the "First Movers COVID Group" by Austria, it also includes Denmark, Norway, Greece, the Czech Republic, Israel and Singapore.

Greece has been one of the great success stories in flattening the curve and was invited to participate in the First Movers COVID Group and share its approach and strategies with the other nations.
