Text Type: News ReportText Creator: Newshub
Text Purpose: To inform the rest of New Zealand about the border removal
Critical Question: What is the text about? How do we know?

What would have been more than 100 days in Covid-19 lockdown, Auckland could see its “freedom day” announced within the month, but the key question remains about how life will look like at that stage. On Monday, Prime Minister Jacinda said the “strong expectation” is that Tāmaki Makaurau will hit 90 per cent double-vaccinated this month and will move into the traffic light framework following a check-up on November 29th. The traffic light system allows more freedoms than the phased stepping-down through alert level 3, resembling life at alert level 2 but with the added protection of high vaccination coverages and restrictions for unvaccinated people. There has been riots and protestors of people asking for freedom instead of being locked down in one part of the country personally I think that this is a bad idea for Auckland to be released to other areas of New Zealand because Covid-19 could reach areas like the South island.
