MELBOURNE - New Zealand Prime Minsiter Jacinda Ardern on Sunday announced a three-day lockdown in the country’s biggest city Auckland, after three new local COVID-19 cases were reported. Ardern said the level 3 restrictions, which require everyone to stay home except for essential shopping and essential work, repeating the super cautious approach the country has taken over the past year in stamping out the pandemic.

New Zealand has not had any local virus cases for months until the recent infections and was ranked the best performing in an index of almost 100 countries based on containment of the coronavirus. By closing its international borders early the island nation virtually eradicated the virus in the early stage of the pandemic.

One of the best world’s leaders there!

That's because the elimination strategy is a fallacy! If a country at a point in time believes it has eliminated covid19 it is simply a best guess: unless it has tested its entire population at that sametime! Furthermore it's only a matter of time before the virus re-emerges!

One day`s lockdown per case so how many would that translate to over here?

In Australia, New Zealand, and Vietnam COVID-19 hasn't been too bad.

Have they got another election coming?

We start vaccine for border workers next Saturday. Thanks!!!!

after 3 cases ? wtf ?`?!?!?!? absurdistan incoming!

Ça c’est courageux

stop it now, aren't you guys sick already of these lockdowns, for how long will they keep it going

That's impossible. People keep telling me New Zealand is immune to covid.

Something crazy about their response to what is basically the flu.

I am glad I don't live there. You can also accept some sort of mortality in life.

Lockdowns never end. The zerocovid fanatics always leave that bit out.

Cat and mouse play by New Zealand and they cannot forever shield the border for long time.

Taking immediate action; this is why NZ has a handle on the pandemic.

Donald trump

how if no one traveling there?

That's how you handle a pandemic.

Meanwhile there are more than 1 million cases in indonesia. And they refuse to do lockdown nor doing anything since february

Smart move. Nip this thing in the bud while it's low. There's no point in waiting 'til there's thousands of cases to start the lockdown.

Well if that is what New Zealand craves. 3 cases! Lockdown!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

So thats how its done.

What an ugly woman...

New Zeland utilise tjrs la PLANdemie afin d'avancer sur leur agenda de The Great Reset ! Elle est d'ailleurs très agressive sur les reformes qui vont mettre la population sur la paille ! FuckingGlobalist

zehdeabreu meanwhile, in Brasil, with more than 1000 deaths per day, president says 'it's useles to saty home crying'

another stupid decision because lockdowns and masks are unnecessary.

clairewad And this is how you do it. Short and sharp

why 3 days?

Feel sorry for New Zealand and Australia. Some serious pain is coming for them. You can't hide from a pandemic, and vaccines won't make it go away whilst the world's poorest nations are denied vaccination. History tells us that it comes to us all eventually.

Lebay betul

New Zealand, var alltså inte fritt från Covid-19. P.s. lockdown fungerar inte.

How this woman won the election is beyond me. 3 cases so she locks down Auckland. Kill the economy a bit more why don't you.

NZ is a population of 4

draiochta14 Damn! Just when you thought some places were safe.

What a leadership! I envy, I praise. Three cases and lockdown. The contrast is embarrassing.

draiochta14 Damn

They should come to Europe to see a real lockdown

this woman should have been in charge of the covid situation worldwide

There’s always pride before the fall. They’ve been beating their chests for a month now. Welcome to the world

If one day lockdown per case is to be done, Maldives will be in lockdown till August 2068. And United States will be in lockdown until 77637 C.E.

🤭

He he he he he he

Gladys Jacinda

3 new covid cases. lol. The US had 85k...yesterday. Thanks Trump.

They don't fuck around New Zealand

3 days? What happened to following the science?

Insanity.

Is it UK strain ?

They were doing so great.
