Yep, in this case the modelling assumes no attempts at suppressing spread. That means it's a worst-case scenario. Ordinarily you'd think that means it's ridiculous as governments will be forced to act. But who knows what will happen in NSW? Perrotet seems committed to ditching any restrictions. And such predictions are a useful counter to those who say we should just let it rip and learn to live with the virus. They're in a bizarre situation of saying "Don't worry about those dire predictions as the Govt won't let it rip" and then later saying that the interventions were unnecessary and useless and we should have just let it rip.
