A daily wrap of all the main developments in the Covid-19 Delta outbreak as New Zealand is plunged into lockdown for the fifth time. I heard them mention Covid and they were like 'we're going back into lockdown at 11.59 tonight' and I was like 'oh, ok . "I only had to wear a mask when I went to the doctors last week because of this virus [RSV] that's going around affecting kids. And now, because I'm not leaving the house and it's Mum that's going to do the groceries, it doesn't feel like we're in a pandemic lockdown. I don't feel too bad and I think that's because we've had so much freedom.
