Should New Zealand open the borders?
Sadly there was an announcement made saying that the borders will be closed and as for me I was just two days away from flying to Napier , it really made me sad and upset but I had to remember it was for our own good and we have to accept that! So today's question is “Should New Zealand open the borders?”
Having the borders open can be fun because we could go on vacation to other countries or visit family and could catch up and stay with them! But that only one side of the story…
If New Zealand opens the borders and people had the opportunity to travel to New Zealand there might be a high chance that more and more people with have to get vaccinated just to keep safe from covid 19 , and as for workers like border workers such as air hostess,staff from the airport, or piolets there could be a possibility of where infected people come into the country which will bring anxiety and stress to border workers because those who might be travelling could be infected and they could also infect the border workers , so the strategy that might help border workers are to maybe minimise the staff. Border closure has also been frustrating and challenging for our athletes , because of lock down and covid 19 as well as the delta variant our , athletes can’t play their games and hopefully after this lock down our athletes can go back and continue playing their sports again with crowds and crowds of people .
As for the rest of New Zealand it could bring fear and anxiety to them too , not knowing that maybe the closes people to them could have been infected , and with more and more people coming from different countries it could make it a bit more difficult for the medical community to continue the race to vaccinate the entire nation/country to protect them from the virus and it is a big task a big job , but it is a big effort for New Zealanders. But also considering that it hasn't been announced that people 16 or under the age can’t get vaccinated yet , which leaves a million children and young people not vaccinated yet so then 20% of New Zealand haven’t been vaccinated but the rest of the 80% have been vaccinated and adding more people from different countries to the percentages leaves it unknown because , the medical community might not know if they have they are infected. So I personally agree with the restrictions of the borders we have now which means that I think we should leave the borders closed.
So that was my opinion but I really wanna know , what is yours? A little recap on what today question is , it is…

Kia orana Maraea, what a week of learning you have had! Your love of writing shines through every week, at school or at home. Excellent work adding in some facts e.g. percentages, to support your ideas. Keep practising this within your writing, even narratives. One thing to practise going forward, you think fast and read fast, make sure you reread each paragraph and listen for where a full stop would be more effective in place of a comma. Your interview was awesome, a real and honest account of someone's feelings about the whole situation. You are doing a great job, keep it up!
