Australia and New Zealand flatten the curve of the virus but keep the closure intact, immediate news

 


Sydney (AFP)

On Tuesday, Australia and New Zealand ruled out calls to ease stringent travel restrictions and public meetings despite their success in curbing the spread of COVID-19.

The number of new cases of HIV in neighboring countries has decreased dramatically in the past two weeks, raising hopes for easing difficult social measures.

But Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the country was still “within weeks” of not lifting any restrictions.

“Patience should be our virtue here,” he said, noting that countries such as Singapore and South Korea had initially achieved success against COVID-19 but saw an increase in new cases after travel and other restrictions reduced.

Australia recorded 63 new infections only on Sunday and Monday, bringing the total number of cases to 6,366 for a population of 25 million.

This is the lowest increase in two days a month.

New Zealand, a country with a population of five million people, saw only eight new cases on Tuesday with a total of 1072 cases, the lowest daily increase in more than three weeks.

“We have been relatively successful – I don’t want to lose this success or the sacrifice that New Zealanders have made,” New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Tuesday when asked about the timing of easing the closure.

“Our goal must be to go early and work hard so that we can reach a position where we can relieve restrictions with confidence,” he said, adding that no action would be taken for at least another week.

The two countries closed their borders with foreigners and imposed a 14-day quarantine on the returning population.

New Zealand implemented strict locking at home while Australia imposed strict restrictions on movements, meetings, and public activities.

Health Minister Greg Hunt said on Tuesday that “Australians are doing extraordinary work, we have seen real progress”, linking the slowdown in new cases to people who respect the rules of closure.

“The rest of the world will, in a moment, change their attitudes with Australia.”

But the campaign caused great economic damage, as Australian officials expected on Tuesday that unemployment would double by 10 percent despite massive government spending to counter the effects of the epidemic.
