15 more New Zealanders sickened

New Zealand reported just 15 new cases of coronavirus today as Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern began outlining what restrictions imposed during a strict four-week lockdown might be eased from next Wednesday.
Lawmakers will make a final decision on Monday on whether to proceed with easing the restrictions. Under Ardern's plan, primary schools would reopen but attendance would be voluntary, and some business could reopen, including drive-through and delivery restaurants. Malls and retail stores would remain closed and large gatherings banned.
New Zealand has reported 1401 cases of virus infections and nine deaths. The number of new daily cases has dropped significantly over the past 11 days.-AP
