Hunches things will get worse with virus

Oz, Taz and Kiwiland need to stay in lockdown as Al Jazeera reporting second outbreak in Beijing and some suggest is a more virulent strain or even a different strain, stay safe antipodeans.

Normally they quarantine for two weeks but they made an exception for compassionate reasons. They've said in the future a negative test result will be needed before a compassionate exemption is given.
Too little too late. Not even a week with zero active cases and they've already slacked off

Have you still got the uber rich dot com billionaires arriving in South Island ??

I am seeing queues of people on the news crowding into newly reopened clothing stores, no social distancing, so I expect there will be a second wave of infection.

Yes, being rich enough gives automatic exemption. Our government thought we wouldn't notice

We as a nation in general have learnt nothing and act like covid-19 never reached our shores. People were justifying their actions by saying "there's no active cases, we're safe".

No, we're not safe, our "she'll be right" attitude will be our undoing. My partner and I are prepping for round two. We currently have enough supplies to not have to leave the house for 3 months. We own our own company so can work from home but a second lockdown will probably be the end of our company. We'll be able to start again and rebuild so we're not too worried.

they were pushing and shoving into Primart, Sports Direct stores, stuff they'll wear once then throw away, how desperate is that?
apart from food I buy everything online.

Already started here. Actually we mostly dodged the first wave so this is really the first wave for us - finally hitting due to people not distancing anymore.
