You literally supported lockdown measure with this comment. I'm not sure why you're backtracking now.
You might wanna backtrack on the whole AUS NZ thing since they've essentially become authoritarian police states over the COVID cases everyone told them they would get hit with. Turns out it had nothing to do with their measures and everything to do with the fact they're giant islands that can stop anyone coming into their country.
- celticninja 5y agoOh I supported lockdown measures when they were first introduced. Because I am not an idiot. But now that we have vaccinations available they are a better option when the virus is so widespread. The UK is also an island and we could have cut ourselves off from travel and kept the virus out bit an incompetent government meant that never happened. So the best solution now is vaccination for as much of the population as possible. Australia has gone a bit nuts but it's hardly a police state and NZ has fared very well and is very definitely not an authoritarian police state. Of everywhere NZ has had the best handling of the situation. Of course it had everything to do with their measures, stopping international travel was one of those measures, lockdowns were another.
