Thus, the people of New 𝔉Zealand will now lead a normal life, which they were accustomed🍸 to, bringing joy to the entire population of 3 million in the country.
Ardern, who announced after the Health Ministry’s official release, admitted that she did a little dance with her daughter in the press conference, highlighting the jubilation it brought to her.
