Re: How New Zealand Got Rid of Covid-19

And how many travelers does the US have compared to New Zealand?

The primary burden of preventing travelers from entering a country usually falls on the country of departure and the carrier. There's a passport and visa check before boarding a plane or ship. Those without the proper papers are prevented from boarding. The number of agents agents in the destination country required to enforce a travel ban isn't a consideration.

New Zealand immediately banned all foreigners from entering its country. It permitted its citizens to return but placed all of them in a 14 day quarantine upon arrival. New Zealand's immigration and customs personnel assigned to arriving travelers is proportional to the number of arriving travelers. Likewise the number of US personnel immigration and customs personnel is proportional to the number of arriving travelers.
