Hundreds are queueing for Covid-19 tests in Christchurch, while grocery shoppers are heeding pleas to not panic buy as the country enters the first day of a nationwide lockdown.
On Tuesday, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the shift to alert level 4 for at least three days for the entire country after a 58-year-old Auckland man contracted Covid-19 from an unknown source.
On Wednesday, a long line of cars ran down the length of Orchard Rd near Christchurch Airport as people waited to access a Covid-19 testing centre – some as long as three hours. There were similar scenes at a centre on Pages Rd.
As panic buying set in after the 6pm announcement, some supermarkets were running out of toilet paper and flour. A number of photos had been shared on social media showing empty shelves and long queues.

All of New Zealand will move to alert level 4 at 11.59pm after a new community Covid-19 case emerged in Auckland.
New Zealand will initially spend three days at alert level 4, except for Auckland and the Coromandel, which will remain at level 4 for seven days at this stage.

New Zealand will initially spend three days at alert level 4, except for Auckland and the Coromandel, which will remain at level 4 for seven days at this stage.
What are the rules at alert level 4?
Staying at home
People are asked to stay at home, unless they are undertaking essential travel to the supermarket or dairy, seeking necessary medical care or being tested for Covid-19, or to get physical exercise in their neighbourhood.
Unnecessary trips outdoors have spread the variant overseas, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said.
She advised people to wear a mask when leaving the house, and stay 2 metres away from others. “Stay local, do not congregate. Don't talk to your neighbours.”
Schools, workplaces and business
Businesses will be closed, except for essential services such as supermarkets, pharmacies, health clinics, petrol stations and lifeline utilities.
Only essential workers are permitted to go to work, others must work from home.
Schools and universities will shut down, and travel is severely limited.
Events and recreation
All gatherings are cancelled at alert level 4.
All public venues, including libraries, pools, leisure centres, gyms, early childcare centres, community venues and playgrounds are closed. Some public toilets will remain open.
Many large events have been canned.
Staying in your bubble
Once you go into a bubble you must stay in it, Ardern said.
If you are completely isolated, or you live alone, you can join a bubble with one other person.
Households are advised to nominate just one person to go shopping, and “always act like you have Covid-19”.
Travelling home
There is a grace period of 48 hours for people who are away from home to return home, if they cannot shelter safely in place. After this time, movement between regions will be restricted.
Covid-19 jabs
Covid-19 vaccinations will be suspended for 48 hours to ensure they can be carried out safely.

There are 11 new cases of Covid-19 on Friday, bringing the cluster to 31.
Eight of the cases are in Auckland and three are in Wellington.
Meanwhile in Christchurch, hundreds have queued for Covid-19 vaccines and tests, while the city centre remains eerily quiet (as it should during lockdown).
Visual journalist Stacy Squires took some photos of the city in a way it's not normally seen.
