Auckland lockdown extended for at least two weeks

Wellington | New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern extended a lockdown in Auckland for at least another two weeks, but said a vaccination target would be introduced on Friday to give people an indication of when restrictions could be eased.

Auckland will remain at Alert Level 3, meaning people cannot leave the city and should stay at home where possible, Ms Ardern told a press conference on Monday in Wellington. She said a vaccination target would provide the city, which has already been locked down for two months, a pathway out of restrictions.
