I know personally that's not true about NZ. My ex is immune compromised and they have "Levels" there (L0, L1, etc.) and she most likely won't be able to leave her place for another two months.

Another kiwi I worked with sent me a video of walking through an empty Wellington. It's a small nation, 4 million people, plus ACC (health care) and solid unemployment for all, so it's much easier for them to cope. It's also easier for them to close the country, as it is a set of islands. The friend who did that walk said it was still Orwellian though.



They are about to have complete elimination of the virus.
