"New Zealand exemplifies this approach. Kiwis are famously loose, but they
enacted some of the world’s strictest measures
early on – and tamed their rule-breaking spirit,
limiting Covid-19 deaths to just 25." I didn't know that Kiwis are
famously loose. But, now, thinking back on "Flight of the Conchords", I
could definitely see that.
"Finally, we need to recognise that we’re all in
this together." It would help if the surpreme court didn't side-step
health officials and "force" looseness.
