Poll: Self-isolation after returning from overseas, will they do it?

Reporter Manawatū Standard

Atamārie kiritata,

Palmerston North City Councillor Billy Meehan is practicing self-isolation after returning from a trip to Jordan and Italy over the weekend.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has encouraged a stay of 14-days in self-isolation to ensure people who may have contracted COVID-19 don't pass the virus on to anyone else.

Do you think people will follow Meehan's lead and self-isolate?
