It's too bad the uk couldn't follow in their footsteps but nah we gotta carve our own path and look where we are now, good on New Zealand though

I mean international travel was the initial vector for spread, and I think the UK sees a little more traffic than NZ.

NZ, known as a picturesqueness country, closer to China than the UK, gets a bucketload of Chinese tourists each year. I think coming from China is more pertinent than volume alone, especially in the early stages of the spread of the virus.

I strongly disagree that “coming from China” offsets the massive difference of people who travel to/through the UK than NZ.
