Auckland, welcome to "alert level 2.5".
The rest of New Zealand, you're still in alert level 2 and unlike last time at alert level 2, masks are now mandatory on public transport for all Aucklanders aged 12 and over. This applies to buses, trains and ferries, as well as drivers for taxi companies and rideshare apps.
Although wearing a mask outside of public transport is not compulsory, Aucklanders are strongly encouraged to cover their faces while in public spaces.
This poll is now closed. Final poll results:
Will you wear a mask in public?
Yes - 48%
No - 52%
