New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Wednesday she could lift all social distancing measures to return the country to normal life, bar the international border closure, as early as next week.
Ardern will decide on Monday whether the country is ready to shift to alert level 1, more than two months after she imposed a strict level 4 lockdown, shutting most businesses and forcing people to stay home, in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
“If it hasn’t, then we will be in a good position to move,” she said during a televised news conference. However, there would be one major change from pre-pandemic normality, with no immediate plans to reopen New Zealand’s border.
