Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says it's "not realistic to assume" COVID-19 will never reach New Zealand, and the current travel restrictions can't go on forever.
The virus has so far infected nearly 80,000 people, killing nearly 2500 of them. The vast majority of the deaths - 2346 - have been in China's Hubei province, where the outbreak began. It's now starting to spread in other countries, most notably South Korea, Japan, Italy, Singapore and Iran.
