Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has delayed New Zealand's elections by four weeks due to the coronavirus outbreak in Auckland.

뉴질랜드 수도 오클랜드에서 코로나바이러스가 발생함에 따라 저신다 아던 총리는 뉴질랜드 총선을 4주 연기했다.


The election had been scheduled for Sept. 19 but will now be held on Oct. 17.

9월 19일로 예정되어 있던 선거는 10월 17일에 치러진다.


Before the latest outbreak, New Zealand had gone 102 days without any known community transmission of the virus, and life had returned to normal for most people, with restaurants and schools open and sports fans back in stadiums.

가장 최근의 재확산 전까지 뉴질랜드는 코로나바이러스의 지역사회 감염 없이 102일을 보냈고, 식당과 학교가 문을 열고 스포츠 팬들이 경기장에 돌아오면서 사람들 대부분의 삶이 정상으로 돌아왔다.


The only known cases during that time were returning travelers who were quarantined at the border.

해당 기간 알려진 유일한 확진 사례는 공항에서 격리된 여행객들을 돌려보내는 것이었다.


Officials believe the virus was reintroduced to New Zealand from abroad but haven't yet determined how. The outbreak in the nation's largest city has grown to 58 infections, all thought to be connected, giving health officials hope the virus isn't spreading beyond the cluster. (AP)

관계자들은 이 바이러스가 해외에서 뉴질랜드로 다시 유입된 것으로 믿고 있지만, 아직 확실한 경로를 밝히지는 못했다. 뉴질랜드 최대 도시에서 발생한 감염자 수는 58명으로 늘었고, 이들 모두가 연관성이 있는 것으로 여겨지는 만큼 보건당국은 바이러스가 집단을 넘어 확산하지 않기를 바라고 있다.
