Advice has been to keep in touch with your neighbours, at a distance.
"don't talk to your neighbors" is the exact verbiage

New Zealand is probably the only western country implementing a very strict lockdown protocol.
It is impossible in the US. People simply won't cooperate, among other reasons.

So COVID is basically here to stay until the end of times. How long can New Zeeland keep going like this? I guess I'll call it a good effort, but eventually someone is going to have to come to the realization that they can't keep doing this forever.

Yep, the realisation was reached on day one - if one doesn't understand the strategy, then everything is as clear as mud.

NZ is in the shadow of China so naturally that would be their response. It’s a Damn shame .
