Restrictions were eased some time ago after the country went longer than three months without a single Covid-19 case, but the brakes were put back on when a fresh outbreak occurred in the main city of Auckland.

Speaking today (21 September) the PM explained that some restrictions would also be eased in Auckland but added that the city needs more time before all are lifted.
Chatting with reporters, Ardern said: “Our actions collectively have manager to get the virus under control. This was the centre of the outbreak and that’s why that caution is needed here.”
