Orange traffic light covid

Chris Hipkins announced on Wednesday all of New Zealand would move to orange at 11.59pm on Wednesday.

Orange light the news some were praying for, but niggles over face masks flare up.

"A mask is not that much different to a uniform. "The traffic light system is redundant," Act leader David Seymour said. Hipkins said positive signs - including a fall in new case numbers - meant it was time to relax restrictions and depart from the red setting.

Companies should establish long-term plans to help employee mental health after the turmoil of lockdowns, Sutherland said. Anywhere up to two million Kiwis may have now had Covid, he said, with many not knowing or reporting it.

In the 1pm updates, the Ministry of Health releases a total number of people who have died “with Covid” in a particular time period. This is because most of the population – about 96 per cent – have received two doses. This can lead to vaccinated people representing the majority of hospitalised cases.

Where you must wear a face mask at the Orange setting: • On domestic flights. • On public transport; includes Cook Strait Ferries but does not include ...

Staff and teachers had to wear medical grade face masks when working with students in Year 4 or above. Performers and speakers are encouraged to wear a mask when they aren't performing or speaking. In the Red setting, students in Year 4 or above were required to wear masks when indoors, on public transport and on school transport. When visiting a cafe, bar or any other hospitality venue, patrons will no longer have to wear a mask when going to and leaving the premises, when using the bathroom or when paying. Guests of both indoor and outdoor gatherings won't be required to wear masks while the mask rules continue to apply for workers and volunteers. At the beginning of April the Government chose to keep the country at the Red setting due to significant pressure on the health system and cases rising in parts of the country other than Auckland.
