New Zealand's largest city Auckland back to lockdown after COVID-19 case

New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Saturday that the country's biggest city, Auckland, will go into a seven-day lockdown from early morning on Sunday after a new local case of the coronavirus of unknown origin emerged.

I love how the article likes to paint it as this draconian punishment. This is how it's done. You get a case or two, you shut that down immediately. In two weeks, everybody goes back to business.

I'd much rather be doing that than be risking my life every single time I go to pick up groceries because half the population are idiots.

In Gwinnett County (where I live) alone, on February 25th, there were 228 new Covid-19 cases and 8 deaths.

There are no restrictions on anything. More than half of people do not wear masks anywhere they go.

Half the people around here are doing the same shit. You just shake your head and keep walking. It's all you can do.
