WELLINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) - New Zealand is considering making masks compulsory at high alert levels as well as compulsory scanning of QR codes to boost contact tracing in efforts to reduce the risk of coronavirus spreading, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Monday.

They can confiscate assault rifles while they’re at it. Scanning that is. ๐ธ๐ฑ๐๐จ๐ฉ
One thing this Wuhan flu debacle has shown is many people are germophobic to the degree that it overrides rational thought.
The powermad pportunists and zealots are then easily able to exploit these “crises”.
And then the same for the epsilon, zeta, eta, theta....omega variants as well.
They’re not masks, they’re muzzles.
NZ has had a year and a half to build care fa ilities and train caregivers.
If it hasnt then the people there will be justifed in armed revolt over continuing assault on their civil liberties.
Did anybody interview the guy who is sick with the Delta variant?
All these countries “need” to lock down so the idiots in the USA will be propagandized into fear and panic.
Note the most British nations are the harshest lockdowns.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern Was one of the worldโs leading young socialists. She is bringing socialism to New Zealand
New Zealand is becoming a colony of China.
Anybody in the govt read the side of the mask box about not working against viruses?
Yep! My New Zealand friends are horrified
Just wait until the Epsilon variant. It feels like an ordinary headache but requires a 5 trillion dollar spending bill to eliminate it. Wear three masks!
I imagine NZ is a bit embarassed at the moment. The one Delta case, testing positive on arrival in the Cook Islands, came from NZ - a Cook Islander traveling from Egypt to NZ then visiting the CI, with the intent to return to Egypt. Is this man the ‘aussie tourist’ the article mentions? I read the CI had banned NZ’ers from the Wellington region for half a day until they recinded - pulled them off a plane and had to reschedule them.
