Coronavirus new zealand pm says all arrivals must self isolate

That's correct. On March 14, 2020, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced that all arrivals to the country, including New Zealand citizens, would be required to self-isolate for 14 days to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

The new measure was introduced as part of the country's efforts to contain the virus, which had already spread to several countries around the world. At the time, there were only a few confirmed cases of COVID-19 in New Zealand, but the government was taking proactive steps to prevent the virus from spreading further.

Under the new rules, all arrivals to New Zealand, including travelers from countries with confirmed cases of COVID-19, would be required to self-isolate for 14 days upon arrival. This meant that they would need to stay at home or in a designated quarantine facility, and avoid contact with others, including family and friends.

The self-isolation period would begin from the moment the person arrived in New Zealand, and would continue for 14 days, or until they were cleared by health authorities. During this time, they would be required to monitor their health and report any symptoms to health authorities.

The government also introduced other measures to help slow the spread of COVID-19, including:

• Closing schools and universities
• Canceling large gatherings and events
• Restricting travel to and from the country
• Implementing social distancing measures, such as limiting the number of people in public places and encouraging people to work from home

These measures were designed to help slow the spread of COVID-19 and protect the health and well-being of New Zealanders.
