New Zealand Has Just One Remaining Case of Coronavirus

New Zealand is down to its last known coronavirus case, approaching a milestone beyond reach in most countries: the elimination of the virus within its borders.

It has been nine days as of Sunday since the last new Covid-19 case was confirmed. The only active case is an Auckland woman in her 50s who was diagnosed May 1. The last recorded death was a week ago and more than 1,100 people have recovered.

Zarkwan What happens when they reopen the borders.

Per capita we are doing better in Australia.

'Country' New Zealand has smaller population then my city 🙂. This is highly irrelevant for most of the countries.

devisridhar But then what - wait for vacation or natural death of virus?

New Zealand loves Floyd’s people too much, take all of them to your place, don’t need to protest. You can have them all.

Have you ever thought of doing a piece on Vietnam’s stats Or is that country not white enough?

They have NOT stamped out the virus. Just wait once they open up their borders. Coronavirus is not going anywhere and being a sparsely populated country helps.

So we decided to celebrate with marches and we little riots in the street.

Well done NZ

Yay, Kiwis!

4 million people on a island nation...yes, it’s a bit easier that way. perspective

Starlink

I envy these guys

Being an island at the end of the world, low population density and below 22nd parallel North are better explanations than management of the crisis.

They need more diversity!!!!!

congrats! how are they planning the opening?

NZ, Iceland… islands have a natural advantage

Good news, but short lived. With no vaccine or cure at sight, this will last as long as they can sustain closed borders.

prchovanec Helps to be so far from the rest of the world. Glad they are safe

crazy..... what following science can do

Wait..I thought Donnie was Making America Great Again

Good on them. Ain't going to happen here.

Covid-19 yesterday’s news, right? minneapolisriots

Australia managed to do it with fewer restrictions.

More power to them.

Great efforts

new Zealand is Australia*s dog America's grandson

Congratulations!

Well, they do like their tide pods, those kiwis

Congradulations. You did the right things.

There is hope. 🙌🙌🙌

Tino pai PureNewZealand!

That's impossible - unless New Zealand is prepared to isolate itself from the whole world.

24 hrs flying time helps....

How lucky for NZ...they are of a perfect size and position to be the lab test of what happens next

The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is now the most reliable place in the world. No case and patient for 33 days

Just wait for foreign travel to resume and boom, the fairy tail will come to an end.

And they did it with the exact steps outlined in the Bush and Obama pandemic response plans. Imagine if the US had a president that listened to experts and a well thought out plan coordinated with all US states and territories.

Wow 😳

it's an island ...duh

LeilaniMunter Only takes one visitor next November when all the crowded spaces are back

Thats not true,the Govt here have proven beyond all doubt that they are the VIRUS,look at the Hitlertarian legislation they rolled out.When theyre thrown out that will be the extinction of the virus.

Please, KEEP IT THAT WAY! 🤗🤗🤗

Probably Sauron held up in Mount Doom or something

The country also depends on tourism which represents 5.8% of the economy. Not very rosy future for that sector.

Not sure why the keeps doing these country by country comparisons. Terrible statistical analysis.

Yeah, by committing economic suicide. As soon as they try to restart their economy they'll have cases.

So heard immunity is out? Vaccines are it?

Başbakan Kadın olursa, yapılan çalışmaların sonucu tabii böyle oluyor. Dünyanın sağlığı için her ülkeye böyle bir Başbakan gerekiyor.

Leadership

And he’s been isolated on a raft

I enjoy New Zealand 🇳🇿 LesMills home workout 🏋️‍♀️. 👍

I call bullshit

Maybe being outdoors and having more sheep than people helps.

They have a great Prime Minister

Here comes Chinaaaaaa

Sounds good

New Zealand near eradication, but virus has grim global holdNew Zealand has all but eradicated the coronavirus from its shores, with just one person in the nation of 5 million known to be still infected. This is a population that acts as one, they respond to sensible orders from their elected officials and health officials; they don’t have knuckleheads like we do here in US who bradish weapons and refuse orders oldmanebro NZ is an island and had the ability to cut off all entry. Their early lock sown was vital.

New Zealand Now Has Just 1 Active COVID-19 CaseNew Zealand is now down to only one active COVID-19 case. The last time a new case was reported in the country was over a week ago. No one is currently hospitalized with the disease. When you have a low population and live on an island, it’s a lot different. Only one way in and out. And the PM shut NZ down to travelers. People were against shutting down travel completely into the US. The travel bans we did employ were already overly criticized and politicized realDonaldTrump The New Zealand Prime Minister JacindaArdern is a real leader! It's not just New Zealand. Other countries have gotten it under control or got rid of it completely. Mandatory quarantine, testing suspected cases, tracing and isolation can defeat a novel disease with no vaccine or known treatment.
