오클랜드 코로나 경보 2단계로 하향 조정
Covid-19: Auckland to move to alert level 2 on Sunday, 7-day restriction 'wise approach
이번주 일요일 오전6시부터 오클랜드 지역의 코로나 경보레벨이 기존3에서 2로 하향 조정이 됩니다.
5일연속으로 새로운 코로나 양성사례가 없었기 때문에 가능한 조치이고 오클랜드를 제외한 나머지 지역은 경보레벨1이 적용이 됩니다.
오클랜드의 레벨1 추가하향 조정은 다음주말에 상황을 고려해서 발표를 할 예정입니다.
Auckland will move back down to alert level 2 at 6am on Sunday, after a full seven days under level 3 restrictions.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern made the announcement during the post-Cabinet press conference at 4pm on Friday afternoon, alongside Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield.
The region has been at alert level 3 since 6am on Sunday, after a new case (case M) was announced on Saturday, who had been out in the community while infectious over the course of a week.
The 21-year-old man visited a number of “high-risk”, “well populated” places while infectious, including a supermarket, gym and the Manukau Institute of Technology university campus, sparking fears of potential widespread community transmission.
This will mark roughly 14 days since the infectious period of the last cases in the community.
“We still want some level of restrictions in place” if new cases are found, Ardern said.
“Sticking with the full seven days was the wise approach.”
The rest of the country is at alert level 2, and will move to level 1 at 6am on Sunday.
