Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy officially deemed "essential workers" by New Zealand Prime Minister
From theWashington Post:
During a time of global crisis, climbing death tolls and widespread uncertainty, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has been hailed globally for her compassionate handling of thecoronaviruspandemic.
She continued to win hearts Monday when she clarified who exactly has made a list of essential workers.
Youll be pleased to know that we do consider both the tooth fairy and the Easter Bunny to be essential workers, she said, smiling. But as you can imagine, at this time theyre going to be potentially quite busy at home with their family as well and their own bunnies.
New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern confirms Easter Bunny is classed as an essential worker but it might be difficult for the bunny to get everywhere in current circumstances.

It's not clear if these essential workers are also deserving of a living wage like all other essential workers, or if trickle-down economics will impact the income of Tooth Faeries across the globe. In my humble opinion, even immortal cryptids deserve fair compensation for their labor.
