Economically or in terms of mortality/morbidity, it’s not obvious that there was a better strategy for New Zealand.

The article claims that covid is in all Antarctic bases, but I wasn’t aware that Scott base had any. I can’t find any reports of it either.

Edit: Their report from August had it covid free. https://www.antarcticanz.govt.nz/media/news/antarctica-new-z...

That’s beside the point. It is possible to keep covid out. There are costs and benefits to that.

The ISS has remained covid free. Kiribati has too. Tonga had one person arrive with covid but it didn’t progress.
