Auckland has now joined the rest of New Zealand at Alert Level 1. This means there are no longer restrictions on the number of people at social gatherings or extra protocols for businesses. However, businesses and public transport must continue to display QR codes.
Key messages for Aucklanders:
- All businesses can operate if they can do so safely. Alternative ways of working are encouraged where possible.
- Stay home if you’re sick, wash your hands, cough or sneeze into your elbow, clean surfaces
- Keep a record of where you have been, use the NZ COVID app
- If you have cold or flu like symptoms call your GP or Healthline to book a free COVID-19 test, and get tested if asked
- The latest information can be found on covid19.govt.nz or the Unite Against COVID social media channels
