Coronavirus fear looms over NZ again after 102 days

After successfully completing more than 100 days without any community transmission of COVID-19, NewZealand once again fear the spread deadly virus. The Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, has announced that the country has recorded four new cases in Auckland.

Auckland was swiftly put under a three-day lockdown after four cases were confirmed in one family there. The family had not travelled overseas and the source of their infection is unknown.

This is significant because the country had not recorded transmissions of the virus within the community in more than three months and daily life had returned to normal except for strict border control.

The health authorities had repeatedly warned people not to be complacent and a second wave of infections was “inevitable”.

All 22 known cases of the virus reported before were reported among returning travellers quarantine in isolation facilities.

Arden said “many questions” remain about the four new cases of covid-19 diagnosed in the community, after 102 days of no such cases in the country.
