I don't want to belittle your friends experiences, but those measures stopped a lot of people from dying. The govt decisions were supported by legit public health officials and backed by proper research.
They provided a lot of money to private businesses to support them, and overall comparatively NZ businesses did much better than most places globally.
Also the whole 'tiny island' thing is kind of grating to me as a new Zealander. It's 10% bigger in land size than the UK.
