New Zealand Goes Into Lockdown After Detecting One Covid Case

Almost all the countries in the world had a devastating impact with the emergence of the novel Coronavirus. When the situation was the same for all the countries, one country showed the world how to tackle the situation.

Yes we are talking about New Zealand. The country took strict measures and actions to see that the situation comes under control.

As an example to show how New Zealand is capable of doing this, a three-day lockdown was announced in the country after a new infection was detected.

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the decision saying that at this time, they can't take any choice.

The new infection that was detected is the first infection to have been reported in the country in the past six months.

The decision of announcing lockdown was made by the Prime Minister in a televised address.

It has been widely reported that the person who was infected with the virus has caught the Delta variant of Covid, which spreads with higher transmission rate.

The Delta variant is currently ringing the danger bells in many countries including Australia. The situation is said to have turned problematic in Australia.

To see that an Australia-like situation won't repeat there, the New Zealand Prime Minister announced a lock-down.

It is said that a 58-year-old man who belongs to Auckland was the person who caught the virus.

New Zealand has successfully managed to tackle the Coronavirus situation when the other super power nations are unable to do so.

The other countries including India should learn from New Zealand on how to make timely decisions.

Earlier we saw how religious gatherings and political meetings were held in the country when the second wave was ringing the danger bells.

The first wave of Covid was not our mistake, the pandemic hit us when we were not prepared and we didn't even have any idea about the virus's behaviour.

But the second wave in India is our mistake. People started to take the virus lightly. No protocols were followed. The religious gathering and political meetings added fuel to the virus' spread , pushing the country into a great disaster.
