New Zealand Reopens Economy as New Coronavirus Cases Fall to Zero
-----------------------------------------------------------------

In New Zealand, authorities have reopened shopping malls, restaurants,
movie theaters, gyms and hair salons, after reporting no new cases of
the coronavirus for the last two days. New Zealand's early and
aggressive action appears to have not just contained the virus, but
eliminated it from the island nation of 5 million people, where just 21
people have died of COVID-19.
