NSR: Coronavirus: A global Pandemic.

“Over the last 14 days I have built another business outside politics and will be focusing my full attention there,” he wrote in the email, which was obtained by POLITICO.

The fundraiser, Mike Gula, didn’t specify his new line of work in the email. But in an interview, he said he’d started a new company selling medical equipment that’s been in short supply during the coronavirus pandemic.

The company, Blue Flame Medical LLC, was formed Monday in Delaware, according to state records. Its website says it sells coronavirus testing kits, N95 respirator masks, “a wide selection” of personal protective equipment and other “hard to find medical supplies to beat the outbreak.”

Asked how he’d managed to procure such equipment when there are shortages in hospitals across the country, Gula said, “I have relationships with a lot of people.”

NZ has now published its guidance to transition from level 4 lockdown to level 3 and then 2

Level 3 is designated as a "waiting room" between level 4 (extreme lockdown) and level 2 (mainly lockdown of high risk / over 70s)

In particular of our 15 new cases today, 11 come from known outbreaks so are contained.

This now opens the possibility for a broad reopening, with situational or regional lockdowns if fresh outbreaks occur

Again the value of go hard / go early is that our total population of infected is geometrically less than Germany for example. Australia has about 4x the cases of NZ, but also in a great position to exit lockdown. Germany on the other hand has 100x cases and well over 100x new cases per day

I think this answers part of the exit strategy. In terms of new outbreaks, best to lock down hard immediately, but perhaps only locally.
