(CNN) New Zealand has reintroduced coronavirus restrictions in parts of the country after new locally transmitted cases broke the 102-day streak the country had gone without recording a local infection.

New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern confirmed four new locally transmitted coronavirus cases on Tuesday night, and announced that New Zealand's most populous city, Auckland, will temporarily see level three restrictions introduced for three days starting from midday on Wednesday.

Oweo, I’d love to see you wheel into this thread

Btw, locking down your nation because one family of four tested positive is to me tyrannical.

If they had shutdown travel, and went without a case for that long, how could a new one have developed?

A family of 4 tested positive in Auckland so they locked down both the north and south islands.

Life, uh, finds a way.

In reality, they still need shipping (a lot of it), both air and sea freight. That would be my primary guess.

And it's probably likely that whatever testing procedures they have in place aren't 100% airtight on normal travel into and out of the country, because that is effectively impossible.

There’s a story out there (sorry no link) of a coronavirus spreading in a remote base in Antarctica after everyone had been there for over a month

Because of these 4 people?

Even if they’re going the route of “complete eradication by completely eliminating any transmission,” why not quarantine those 4 people and do extensive contact tracing?

Maybe, just maybe, the testing picks up all different types of viruses and not just covid-19
