Well he's back, this time with a message for Kiwis: Stay home and help break the chain of coronavirus.
"This thing (coronavirus) is an invisible dragon. Please, stay home. Let's break the chain and save lives. If we follow the rules, we'll end this lockdown sooner. Let's slay this dragon, and get back to doing the things we love, like eating pies."

The State of Emergency was given for 7 days and could be renewed, if necessary, for a further week after the first week was ending. This has occurred and could be extended, if needed, after this second 7 days comes close to ending.
Lockdown is what we are all doing by staying at home to stop Covid 19 from spreading, and was put in place by the Government for 4 weeks. This may also be extended if the virus is still spreading in communities.

If you or someone you know is struggling with things like online grocery shopping, making video calls (eg Zoom, Skype), connecting to online education platforms, I am happy to offer free support over the telephone during the lockdown.
