Default Re: Covid 19 -

It took pretty much the whole nation being on board in NZ, plus a draconian lockdown, basically stay home for a month no mix or mingle at all, if you had to go out for food you kept well away from anyone, even doing that it was dam hard to stamp it out. Your Geni is out the bottle and sprinting down the street you guys will join the world with rising infection. Was our way better who knows, problem we have now is we are stuck on a island, and slowly sinking economically, the Govt hand outs are coming to a end so more and more people are getting laid off (son was laid off last week Covid was used as reason) driving around theres lots of for lease signs in shops. Have not heard one economic plan from Govt to how they are going to drag us out of this, but we (govt) are going to create jobs (planting trees and some road construction). We had industry leaders offering help with advice but fell on deaf ears with aunty Cindy. Good thing is NZ govt is leading by example they said were going to take a 20% pay cut which seems to be a impossible task to implement with a election soon i cant see that back dated. All i can can see is a tough Christmas looming. Sorry for doom and gloom rant but it seems both our Govt's are a bit lost with this.
