A special Roy Morgan web survey shows that 65% of Australians aged 18+ now say the Australian Government is handling COVID-19 well, up 22% in a week. Just 29% (down 20%) of Australians disagree that the Australian Government is handling the Coronavirus well. While previously only 38% of those in New South Wales agreed that the Australian Government was handling COVID-19 well, this has increased to 59% (up 21% in a week). This is similar to clear majorities in other states: Queensland 70% (up 28%), Victoria 66% (up 21%), Western Australia 75% (up 22%) and South Australia 58% (up 11%). Meanwhile, 59% of Australians now say the ‘worst is yet to come’ over the next month in regards to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic – down 26% in a week. The survey of a cross-section of 987 Australians aged 18+ was conducted over the weekend of April 4-5.
