That can't be right, I've been reliably informed for the last 30 years that only white males are racist.
 
Guys and Girls would not worry if Arden is popular or Not, New Zealand in Strife, not from the disease, but because of it and totally closing there borders, As some have said too early and too complete, They have disrupted there Food Chain, while still struggling with the ramifications of a drought,
They will need to rely on Australia to help them avoid a bigger disaster than Covid 19, along with breaking all there rules re Fishing, which could cause them issues for years to come.

A Few weeks a long time, But you should get you data from the National Covid 19 Site it's more up to date and accurate.
Also, have not seen a graph that singles out the US, all the Graphs I have seen use the term Americas, which include Canada, US, Mexico and South America,

Yes, the latest charts have broken it down into Europe and Americas. I don't dispute this. I also don't dispute that Europe as a whole is responsible for more infections than the Americas as a whole.

However, the last time I saw it broken down to individual countries (as distinct from continents), it was:
1. USA
<daylight>
2. Italy
3. China

Add Italy, France, Spain & the UK together, and the total overtakes the USA quite comfortably (USA being 90+% of the Americas total).

New Zealand a Green Country in the way that it preserves its fishing grounds, Due to the drought Fishing will be one of the main sources of food, So they will raise the quota to feed a country, this, in turn, will lead to overfishing and put a strain of that resource, for years to come,

No Europe and the Cruise Ships were always a bigger source of the Virus into Australia, Think the Only time the US was a big deal was back when we only had about 1000 cases.

Didn’t know that they have been drought affected either.

On another note, I’d be ok with the government here opening up the Murray/Darling to food producers again. The waters is there this year to sow crops if they’re given the go ahead.

The cotton farmers not so much.

It they need to, they will open up the Murray/Darling for Food Production only. Problem is it Winter for us not a great time for crops. And we are coming of a drought as well.

We dont have the water for growing cotton and rice in Australia.
Its ludicrous we do.

Our problem right now is that most of our rice is being imported from Vietnam, who’ve stopped exporting since the pandemic started.

Definitely agree with cotton. And this place is foreign owned and was set-up via some ‘allegedly’ very dodgy deals. 1 of many foreign owned farming ventures in the basin not necessarily raising crops suitable for our climate nor water resources

Jacinda Ardern declares victory over coronavirus, could end lockdown

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has declared her country's lockdown a success after a stunning drop in daily cases to just 29 on Thursday.

We know that nearly all of our cases were returning travelers. It just reflects New Zealand’s smaller population and The relatively small number of flights per day compared to Australia.

I'm inclined to agree with this, but it's difficult to know how much was racism and how much was ignorance.

also, "US were also caught on the hop" is a hot take on what happened there



So, she's done a good job, and you chose to show that in a thread about that very subject by "disliking" something that intimates she's done a good job? Why drag something else into it? Why can't you just say, "I don't like her politics, what with all the niceness and stuff, but she's done a good job"? You're broken inside Mutineer.



We are very lucky these people that got off the ship haven't gotten anyone else killed. At any rate, I suspect there will be some sort of official inquiry into what happened there.



She had a volcano too. There's probably an argument that she may have achieved more if she hadn't had these disasters, but by the same token, every leader has disasters, it's up to them to lead through it. She just happens to have had a few big ones, but she keeps leading.
