whaaaat how come? Y'all are super insulated from the world? Or people got vaccinated already?

Live in New Zealand. Locked down hard and early, followed by a new lockdown in our biggest city every few months when a case sneaks through the quarantine at border, but largely things have been normal here the last 9 months.

Our vaccination programme has only really just started as we had no reason to rush approval of the vaccine. Currently doing high risk, the general population vaccination doesn't start for another couple of months.

Some places, such as New Zealand, handled the outbreak far better than most.
