Auckland, New Zealand's biggest city, has emerged from a strict weeklong lockdown imposed after a community cluster of the more contagious UK coronavirus variant.
There were no new local Covid-19 cases, health officials said, allowing for the restrictions to ease. If no community cases are confirmed during the rest of today, it would make a full seven days since the last community case.
There are still limits on public gathering in the city of nearly two million, however, and masks are obligatory on public transport, according to a Reuters report.
