Really, I’m not even joking.  Look at this NZ government website:

Do you see the 1st item on the list of “Ways we’re uniting against Covid19”? Yes, take another look. It’s the national government encouraging kindness, and defining it as “helping to support friends, neighbors, and family, especially the elderly and vulnerable.”

That’s not to say the mandate is followed by everyone, of course.  We’ve got toilet paper hoarders amongst us too.

But still, it’s delightful to live in a country where, from the highest offices, kindness is a national mandate.
