. The cases have been serologically linked to a case in quarantine, but how they were infected remains unknown.He acknowledged the flight pause would cause disruptions for travellers, but the possibility of turning the tap off and on was worked into the trans-Tasman bubble arrangement from the start.
Australian officials confirmed the wife of the man who tested positive for the virus on Wednesday had also returned a positive test result. NSW Health said the man’s case had been linked to an overseas traveller who brought the virus into the country, but officials still don’t know how it spread between the two people.Restrictions have been announced for the greater Sydney area following the emergence of the virus in the community. From 5pm no more than 20 visitors are allowed people’s homes, including for weddings.
Hipkins said if a decision was made to pause any flights, then they could do that reasonably quickly. “If were to pause, it would take effect probably tomorrow [Friday],” taking into account flight schedules and logistics, he said.The Sydney outbreak is made up of an Indian variant of COVID-19, but not a “variant of concern”, NSW Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant told Australian media on Thursday.
Duck off 😂😂 everything scared
Medical Nazism zerocovid
‘2 perfectly healthy people test ‘positive’ causes mass shutdown and pointless fuckwittery’. When will any of you bell ends wake up ffs!!
Two cases ? Wow!!! Lockdown right away ! put your whole country on its ass again !! 😎
Zero covid is impossible, Australia and New Zealand will never return to normal if they don't except that.
This policy would be so easy to enact in the UK. God knows why we dont do it? Duh.
Zero covid is unsustainable
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That PM looks pure evil.
Two....crazy Zero Covid never real
We have finally defeated Covid. Oh, no we have 2 cases 😂😂😂.
dgurdasani1 BUT BUT BUT
Those 2 countries are fucked
Complete madness
I find this racist, and discriminating, and lack of human right /s Funny how no one is. Saying a thing about race etc etc 🤔
Wait till they go into winter.

Well they are Communist sympathisers, what else would you expect from Totalitarian regimes? 🤷♂️ NewZealand
It’s not Ebola! Get a grip
Prison islands
Ardern is a tyrant
Great news coming out of the Covidian seat of power. The beautiful island of perpetual lockdown staying true to its quest to attain the elusive ZERO. We salute their devout adherence to the glorious NPIs. May their PPE always protect. Well done Kiwi Covidians! 👏
So there no point of the vax then is there?
Hey it's tough, but that's why both nations have faired so well through all this. As a Sydneysider desperate for overseas travel, I support NZ's decision.
Are they gonna shut all the roads every time someone gets run over as well
Geez now Gladys is going to start having a crack at NZ as well as the other states in all her press conferences
Australia and New Zealand are prisons!! Awful over -reaction!
Farewell New Zealand, cut off from the world for eternity
When are New Zealand going to realise that Zero Covid is a stupid strategy?
Imagine living in a world where people are that fearful they lock down when someone coughs. You're living in it.
cucks. State of them
gianlucac1 il bello dello zero COVID..........🤡
Zero covid is a totally crazy strategy.
The zero 'sometimes' covid
dgurdasani1 is this what you seek? If so, why?
Racist buggers
😂 But aye people tell me they are going to have an easy time coming out of this.
There must be some way out of here said the joker to the thief
😂😂😂 The glories of Zero Covid
ZeRoCovId...
FraserNelson These people are insane
FraserNelson I do hope they have started a robust vaccination programme as lock-downs and social distancing only get you so far.
No surprise here.
2 lol
The article title may be inaccurate. As far as I can tell it is only flights TO New Zealand that are paused. Can someone from SMH please update the article?
😂 nutters.
FraserNelson 2?
Infection immunity is no doubt tiny and under 16's make up around 20% of the population. They need to vaccinate 100% of adults to get to what is considered herd immunity, it's not possible and they have to start living with cases and maybe even a few deaths.
FraserNelson “Just read the lines, Chris, and nobody gets hurt…”
trapped on COVID island - the never ending lockdown of New Zealand - shame
Is that racist, too? Like Australia’s travel ban?
FraserNelson Didn't last long that bubble, did it? Zero-covid policy, you know 🤷 we all knew that would be the outcome.
FraserNelson It’s never left the NZ community. Our friends there say folk keep quiet about it for fear of drastic action being taken.
Prison islands
FraserNelson Poor people trapped forever freedoms taken by this covid obsessed woman
That’s why you don’t book a holiday because of this ridiculous “travel bubble”. It’s not a bubble because both countries can still import covid, and then we get this crap.
Meanwhile the same clowns are critical of ScoMo for a temporary ban from a country with over 300,000 (under reported) deaths per day.... is Ardern going to be branded racist & incompetent? The hypocrisy and bias is jaw dropping!!!!!
Bet wetters! Pretty sure NZ has more Covid outbreaks and cases that Sydney. She really is a first class fool like McClown and Palachook…
ThatRyanChap it never ends
This will go on for years, how to keep closing and opening.
Lolx
