Nobody is locked out of New Zealand... but you [i]will[/i] be required to spend at least 14 days in a quarantine facility before being released into the wild... and you鈥檒l be required to pay for that.

We have no covid in our country, and we鈥檙e definitely not going to import it from Covid Central

@newjaninev2 Sigh, New Zealand clearly sucks at this. Haven't you learned annything on how to deal with this crisis. All you have to do is block people from China and later on Europe. No one dares to block people from Europe, they will say you go insane... but if you do it, you'll contain the COVID.

@Kwek00 Oh yes, earlier in the pandemic Jacinda (our Prime Minister) should have declared that the virus would never even enter the country鈥檚 and then she should have downplayed its effect and virulence, and when Kiwi started dying she should have said she did that so as to keep everyone calm, and she should never have locked us down early and hard, and she definitely should have stopped the testing, and she should have issued syringes of bleach to everyone, and in general she should have sought advice from the Great American Leader.

All joking aside, I wonder if Americans even begin to realise how right royally screwed they are.

@newjaninev2 Well, in that way, you at least create an atmosphere that allows for a warp-speed development of a vacin. And you can tell your voters how great you are. 馃悾

@Kwek00 How鈥檚 it looking over in Europe?

@Kwek00 Was it JFK who said that victory has a thousand fathers and defeat is an orphan?

With Trump, victory has just one father, and defeat has a thousand others who are to blame.

@newjaninev2 I can't really talk for Europe. But Belgium has been doing pretty bad from the beginning. Now, our governement did decide to go into lockdown fairly quickly in comparisson to our neighbours, but it was already to late. And when the outbreak started a lot of people were skeeing and brought the virus home.

Our issue is that we have a pretty old poppulation (I don't know how this compares to our surroundings) but the virus has done serious damadge under the elderly. Mix that up with a high poppulation density... and we ended up with a seriously high deatthole. I'm not sure how we are doing in comparisson, but the last time I looked in deaths/capita we were in the top 3.

The EU is impotent, but they did manage to reach a consensus that at least vaccines are more equally distributed and that smaller countries don't get pushed back by more powerfull entities.

@Kwek00 The guys in the room with me right now say that so long as the Belgians keep the beer coming, things won鈥檛 be too bad.

I鈥檓 more concerned about the chocolates...

@newjaninev2 Nah, I don't think there are issues there at the moment. I did hear "Nutella" has been having issues, but that's not Belgian 馃槄
