NZ supermarkets are also open. Just like Oz they can have workers who are asymptomatic carriers. After all, the infection rate is very close to that of Oz.The big difference being with total lockdown they will get a much lower community transmission rate
we on the other hand are still transmitting through community transmission. We have in our favour apocryphal evidence that the virus doesnt like heat - we have that advantage compared to nz - but there would be thousands of people who work at woolies and elsewhere who are asymptomatic carriers spreading this thing unawares. Everything they touch is a potential viral source that social distancing cant avoid.
Rules are virtually the same, the major one being schools are totally shut in NZ while they are at level 4...
