Simple 3-point plan:
Let Russia lay down its weapons and go home;
Let Russia release all Ukrainians it's holding;
Let Russia pay enough cash money to Ukraine for its rebuilding, plus a penalty for attacking.

The number of British programs where they mention they lost someone due to Covid. I think New Zealanders totally underestimate how lucky (and well managed) we were. The still loud antivax voice/Covid deniers doesn't help. Much harder to deny Covid exists when everyone knows someone who lost someone.

Worldwide mortality experience since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2024) shows excess deaths over that period in almost every country measured. Australia (+6%) was below average, and New Zealand (+0.1%) the lowest we measured.

I don’t know enough about what other countries did but we went hard and early (well just in time as it turned out). Being an island nation maybe helped a little but New Zealanders are huge international travellers. Our government took advice from public health experts.
Why didn’t it work elsewhere? Why were many countries unaffected by special disease load without lockdowns? As a scientist, I keep wondering about these questions.
