WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND - APRIL 30: Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern speaks to a journalist as she exits a press conference at Parliament on April 30, 2020 in Wellington, New Zealand. New Zealand's lockdown measures have eased slightly as the country moved to COVID-19 Alert Level 3 from midnight on Tuesday 28 April. New Zealanders must still remain home unless going to work, school, picking up essential supplies or exercising but under Alert Level 3, recreational activities such as swimming, surfing, fishing and hunting are allowed provided social distancing measures are still observed. Restaurants and cafes and other food businesses can now open to offer takeaway or delivery services only. Schools will reopen from Wednesday for children up to Year 10 who can not study from home, or whose parents need to return to work. Mass gatherings remain banned, and only at level two will indoor events of 100 people or outdoor events of 500 people be allowed. However, under Alert Level 3 an exception has been made for funerals and weddings, with no more than 10 attendees now allowed to attend provided there is no reception event, or food served. New Zealanders have been in full lockdown since 26 March 2020. (Photo by Hagen Hopkins/Getty Images)
