Not long ago, New Zealand declared that it had overcome the Covid-19 epidemic. Indeed, there are no active cases left in this country whose population seems very proud of its young Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. In view of the situation, the government has decided to lift all measures except the border closures.
In an article published on June 9, 2020, the New Zealand daily The New Zealand Herald celebrated with great fanfare the country's victory over the Covid-19 epidemic. The day before, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the return to level 1 of the Covid-19 alert , i.e. the weakest.
The fact is that New Zealand has not detected a new case on its soil for almost twenty days. Above all, the country no longer has any active cases today! With a more than respectable record of only 1,504 cases for 22 deaths , New Zealand is logically one of the best students in the world and did not wait for the arrival of a treatment to get out of it.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern also announced the lifting of all measures taken due to the epidemic. However, only the border closure will remain in effect until the situation improves in other countries. Remember, however, that the global toll of the Covid-19 pandemic is more than 7.2 million cases for more than 410,000 deaths and 3.4 million cases of remission.
In any case, the population of the country seems relieved to be able to resume a normal life . Citizens are happy to once again be able to attend sporting events, concerts or go to bars and other nightclubs. But the relief also concerns the return to contact with people over 70 . Finally, this announcement of a virtual return to normal also relieves economic players. Indeed, the epidemic has hit many companies that are now ready for recovery.
So New Zealand is getting back into full swing and everyone is praising Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. Aged only 39, this leader is often cited as an example of success . Indeed, the career of this politician is flawless, as headlined by Le Temps in an article published in March 2019. The management of the Covid-19 health crisis once again shows that New Zealand is led in an exemplary fashion.
