IMHO there was a chance to contain the virus early on, but even that was made more difficult by the delay in China alerting the rest of the world, in fact spreading FALSE information. The dire predictions at the start made some sort of attempt at a "lock down" a legitimate reaction... worth a try... but once the spread has taken hold it made more sense to "get back to work".
Especially since we now know more about the virus it makes a lot of sense to let most people go back to work, but protect the elderly and others in high risk groups.
NZ was "lucky" to be a small, somewhat isolated country.. with no land borders, and so the early lock down actually worked. We are STILL at risk of the virus being introduced from overseas again, but hopefully the Government will stick to very strict inward travel.
The USA, on the other hand, despite having achieved a "plateau" of new cases, is still seeing 20K new cases per day, and so have NOT stopped the virus spread. Even so, they can NOT legitimately keep the economy shut down any longer

New Zealand moves to "LEVEL 1"

"At this point we are very confident we have eliminated community transmission in New Zealand" - Dr Bloomfield.
But to maintain that we must maintain our border controls and testing.


Starts Midnight Tonight!






Starting this week, everyone arriving in New Zealand will be tested twice during the 14 day isolation period.

2 new cases today. Both travelers from UK
Two women with special exemption to attend a funeral??
I HOPE they were tested and locked up as soon as they arrived, and so did not infect others?
Especially since at level 1 there is no limit to numbers attending a funeral
We'll see

Apparently they were allowed to drive to Wellington, then tested?? Only one family member in Wellington said to be close contact.
