Summary
New Zealand’s royal commission into its Covid-19 response found vaccine mandates were reasonable based on available data but acknowledged they harmed social cohesion.
The report praised the country’s elimination strategy for achieving one of the lowest Covid death rates among developed nations while preventing healthcare system collapse.
However, it criticized prolonged lockdowns, weak health system preparedness, and a lack of planning for future crises.
Commissioners urged broad investment in pandemic readiness and emphasized the importance of both frontline and planning staff.
A second phase of the inquiry will review vaccine harms and conclude in 2026.
“Grandma and Grandpa have to die for the economy.” -Texas
Yeah, probably the same Texans who were shouting about death panels and “don’t pull the plug on Grandma” when Obama tried to fix healthcare.
Wasn’t it New York’s Cuomo who killed all the elderly?
if only. more like we have to milk grandma and grandpa of all their life savings by keeping their miserable asses alive in assisted living for the economy.
[Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick suggests he, other seniors willing to die to get economy going again.
“Those of us who are 70 plus, we’ll take care of ourselves. But don’t sacrifice the country,” Patrick told Tucker Carlson.]

ah, yeah. sorry I kinda skipped your Texas specific part. I was more talking generally and personally.
Nevermind the vaccines were giving 20 year old healthy men heart attacks. And for what? The literature regarding the vaccines stated they didn’t prevent the spread, they just reduced the symptoms. So Grandma and Grandpa got COVID anyway.
