A national memorial in New Zealand to commemorate the 51 people who were killed when a gunman attacked two mosques one year ago has been cancelled due to concern over the new coronavirus

The country has had just six confirmed cases of COVID-19. All of those cases have been connected to people returning from abroad and so far there haven't been signs of a local outbreak. The most recent case, involving a man in his 60s who recently returned from the US, was announced by health officials on Saturday.

Some had questioned at the time why the event was proceeding after Ardern and other officials had elected to cancel a festival in Auckland celebrating Pacific culture due to fears over the coronavirus.

Just a few hours after saying no way it was going to be cancelled. She's not leading. She's just doing what she's be told.

She could have worn a burka & a mask would have been fine...

I feel sad for the NZ Citizens too!

Will she apologise for letting them in so they are now dead? She should apologise for opening the borders with her globalist mates, they’d be alive now if she hadn’t.
