Oh please, the fawning over Ardern from some commentators is nauseating, its almost as if she is above being a politician to them. You must have a short memory if you can't recall the comparisons to NZ over our policies towards the beginning of the pandemic. It was all over the news debating the virtues of NZ's elimination policy versus the suppression one here. The fact is you barely hear e a mention of NZ now, despite its woefully slow vaccine roll out, shows the bias. If Aus's roll out is a shambles, what is NZ's? 100% if NZ was above Aus in the vax roll out it would be consistantly mentioned, just like their successful elimination strategy was last year.
