Kiwis' hilarious response to overseas critic calling locked-down NZ 'hellhole'

Kiwis have responded to NZ being called a 'hellhole' with wit and sarcasm.

As you can see the countries falling apart.

12 days since the new cases. Peaked at 13
a day, today we had 1.

IDK of that counts as flattening the curve as the cases fluctuate each day.

But yeah mandatory qurantine this time anyway. You get to suffer in a 4 or 5 star hotel with catering. Costs the government around $280 (US approx $ $190-200) a day per person.

They've managed to contain it in Auckland so far.

Oh, if only we could all live in such a Hellhole.

Meanwhile, here in Ohio....

Ohio GOPers Draft Impeachment Articles Against Governor DeWine, Say His COVID Orders Violate 'Civil Liberties'

Yes, THAT's what needed! Impeach the guy who is doing a pretty decent job of trying to keep us alive.

They want to emulate Florida I guess... with its stellar numbers

Opinion: Populism from Brexit and Trump playbooks enters New Zealand election campaign

Opinion - Covid-19 might have been challenging for populist governments, but that hasn't stopped populist strains emerging in the run-up to the general election, Robert Patman writes.

Hasn't worked so far.

7 cases today. Shrugs.

"To date, there are few signs that many New Zealand voters will be tempted by a politics-first, science-second approach during the Covid-19 crisis. Politicians who take this approach run the risk of a backlash."

Wish I was confidently able to say there would be a backlash here.

My county had 175 new cases last week with 3,641 total cases but only 19 deaths for the US we are still doing better than most.

Our two opposition leaders kinda shut up and are singing a different tune this week.

Their internal polling must be terrible they collapsed to 25-32% support, other side was polling 60-65%.

We got told there would be more cases point blank.

Honesty.

Redirect Notice

Point blank "2020 frankly terrible".

We got told it would vanish in a little bit and summer might kill it and that masks made you look weak and all kinds of miracle cures... hell our leadership even said listen to this person (who talks about demon possessions) and we have some of the best science and the most fear of it in the world.

We got told 173k dead was a "success story"

Thought you said you were from a small country.

On another forum I've started a thread about do you trust your government.

I voted yes for NZ, there's one more yes vote for Japan the rest are no.
10 countries never got Covid (legit) but it's like the Survivor TV show locations (Vanuatu, Samoa, Palau, Micronesia, Cook Islands).

Jacinda got informed at 4pm, lockdown announced emergency broadcast 9:15pm.

The car was out if the bag before she announced on Reddit and if you were paying attention the previous week or two it was no surprise. Few near misses, eventually something was gonna hit.

Took care of various things 4-5 days earlier, doctors visit, pharmacy etc. Then you just wait initial madness out and go shopping quiet times.

Surprisingly, I think in Auckland that almost everyone has fallen into the habit of lockdown in that no one is really out panic buying. Queues are short, shelves are well stocked. It's almost like everyone realised that they don't need enough toilet paper to last them until the end of the year.
