Covid-19 Update : Auckland joins rest of New Zealand at Covid-19 alert level 1

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Hi Neighbours,

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced Auckland will join the rest of New Zealand at Covid-19 alert level 1 from midday Friday.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Update from Auckand Reporters at Stuff:

Auckland is moving to alert level 1 at midday.

* The Blues can host Highlanders with Eden Park crowd, and fans can attend America's Cup.

* Cabinet made the decision on Thursday, but delayed the announcement.

* The delayed decision is a 'logistical nightmare', Auckland restaurant owner says
* There were no new community cases to report yesterday.

* On Wednesday, the Government unveiled a detailed timeline for when people will get the Covid-19 vaccine.

Due to the shift down, Sunday's Super Rugby Aotearoa game between the Blues and Highlanders can go ahead with a crowd.

Crowds can also attend racing at the America’s Cup and Team New Zealand's defence of the cup continues against Luna Rossa from Friday afternoon.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
