New Zealand lifted all social and economic restrictions except border controls after declaring on Monday it was free of the coronavirus, one of the first countries in the world to return to pre-pandemic normality. “Today, 75 days later, we are ready,” Ardern said, announcing that social distancing restrictions would end at midnight. Ardern said she had done a “little dance” when she was told there were no more active COVID-19 cases in New Zealand, surprising her two-year-old daughter, Neve. Ardern was quickly trending on Twitter, and many said they wanted to move to New Zealand. No one wants to jeopardize the gains New Zealand has made,” she said.
