New Zealand will mostly lift its COVID-19 lockdown this week, with only the country’s infection epicentre Auckland to remain under strict stay-at-home orders, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said Monday.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand —

But she added that Auckland, where the country’s Delta-variant outbreak emerged late last month, will remain in hard lockdown for at least another week as the virus was not yet contained in the city of two million. “We’ve done so well to bringing this outbreak under control, level four restrictions are working but the job is not done,” she said.

It means stay-at-home orders are lifted, but the freedoms enjoyed before the Auckland cluster emerged — when domestic life in New Zealand was near-normal — will not be fully restored.
