It s been almost a year since New Zealand s first community outbreak of COVID-19. Since then there have been six others - including the latest, which has plunged Auckland into its third lockdown.
The first outbreak of COVID-19 led to the March-April alert level 4 lockdown last year. When level 4 restrictions were implemented on March 25, the entire nation went into self-isolation, and a national state of emergency was declared.
The first coronavirus-related death in New Zealand came days later on March 29. As the country grappled with as many as 89 new cases on some days, the state of emergency was extended five times, and the shift to level 3 didn t come until the end of April.
