A new coronavirus outbreak has grown to 30 cases, and Ardern predicts of the cluster,"It will grow before it slows."New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern arrives for a press conference Friday in Wellington. A new coronavirus outbreak has grown to 30 cases, and Ardern predicts of the cluster,"It will grow before it slows.
New Zealand's food safety authority released a statement on Thursday reminding that the general scientific consensus is that the risk of COVID-19 transmission by food or food packaging is"negligible." Surfaces in the Americold facility have been swabbed for the virus, but Dr. Ashley Bloomfield, New Zealand's director-general of health, said it's more likely that the virus spread via humans. Respiratory transmission is understood to be the primary way that the virus is spread.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said that possibility has become less likely, with new genomic data that found the strain of the virus in the new cluster is different from strains that had circulated in the country earlier this year. Yet another theory: Could the virus have been spread from an incoming traveler to someone who works at an airport or managed quarantine facility?
Herd vulnerability
The Media: 30 5,000,000 lets focus on that!!!
Not one ov you wearing a mask.
If you invetigaters wear a mask,that will help
Welcome to the party New Zealand... 🍺🍺
Then tell them all, to wear a mask. You got it right the first time, why ignore it now.
Birds.
This is the guy they should be looking for. Up to no good.
Brownian motion of particles in the air is literally the closest science comes to an act of god. Where these cases came from is a stupid question. It’s irrelevant. A relevant question is why does man think he can control something that is essentially an act of god.
My guess is testing. Right? SMH.
😂 oh wait, looks like they can't play God after all.
Just guessing, but how does China sound?
Probably American tourist.
Probably gonna be a visiting American.
That's ok; you only have 30 cases. We have plenty of it. Let us know if you want some...
I guess empathy and hugs doesn't an effective strategy make...
Probably came from Florida
Somebody is pooping in their pants right now about that trip they took to Australia
Look at imported food.
Probably got from an Amazon package..
Is this really headline worthy? I don’t get why you keep reporting on this. It’s not like we here in the US can even compare our situation with that of an island nation. I bet their politicians didn’t go on vacation while things are raging out of control though! ShameOnCogress
😐
Flu gonna flu.
Ehhhhhh. This creeps me out. What if it reactivates? We know that 3 months is the length of average antibody presence. What if it laid dormant in someone or on something?
The trump admin planted the virus truth
Diferently from US, they will take care of it, seriously.
It's a virus , it's in the air government can't stop it . Humans have been living with viruses forever. Time to get out of your basement and start living your life . FYI cloth masks don't stop virus .
FaRah07595123 But see the difference between A COMPETENT LEADER and whatever the Hell we have over here guys? We can have nice things too if y'all voted on policy not prejudices.🤷🏾♀️
This was always going to be totally stupid. Why? People move around. All the dopes / news organizations praising her... The only realistic way to end this is to totally shut down for several weeks SIMULTANEOUSLY ALL AROUND THE WORLD. Good luck with that. SimplyTooManyHoomans
Junior & Eric frolicking with the sheep ?
hmm, almost like it was a completely useless idea to bankrupt the entire country for all the stardom fame.
Let me guess, an American with a red hat snuck in?
Why? The virus is just that. It's a virus. It can't be eradicated when lockdown ends; it will continue to spread. New Zealand is acting in a totally irrational and cruel way. Where is the compassion? One sign of truth in the room is the presence of compassion.
jacindaardern looks pissed and I’m loving it
Ardern is coming for you corona.
Fascinating
All that bragging they were doing maybe to soon huh.
Oh shit, 30?
So, it is a virus. Viruses have been here much longer than us. Maybe we should stop pretending that we are in control.
Contaminated test swabs
case study on why and how the global health establishment is a complete fraud
sgbt1 It’s easy. Someone is lying
China
Ardern said genomic testing has shown the latest outbreak is a different strain to the original outbreak in New Zealand earlier in the year, suggesting it was new to the country.
God I hope it wasn't one of us (🇺🇲)...😳 and I pray they figure it out quickly with NO lives lost!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

SAYHISNAMECANNONHINNANT
Look for the American.
motherfucker, it is spreading through the food, isn't it?
They do love to sail. Best sailors in the southern hemisphere.😉
Maybe you should ask CHINA that MAGAMoron
An Amazon order from China.
Did they let any Americans in? Trump voter.
Sorry for that person
Did an American get in?
New Zealand: back to the trenches!
Wait until guns start mysteriously appearing.. then she’s really gonna be confused
Think Europeans bringing small pox to the new world
Did they have a Trump rally? That’s our main source here...
Let’s go after them we have 1500 dead a day on the regular
I’d ask the smirky fella behind her
