Covid-19: A year since New Zealand's first reported case
Hi neighbours,
It's been one year today since New Zealand's first reported case of Covid-19.
A person in their 60s flew from Iran via Bali and touched down in Aotearoa on February 26, 2020.
Two days later, that person's test came back positive for Covid-19.
Later, a historical case emerged – a visitor to the Waikato who became ill with symptoms consistent with Covid-19 on or about February 21.
The past year has been incredible, turbulent and unprecedented.
How do you think New Zealand has done with its response to the pandemic?
What do you think we have done well as a nation to combat Covid-19?
What could we have done better to ward off the virus?
What have you learned from the pandemic?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
