'Managed' is them choosing where you'll be.
If you're lucky you'll get the SO/ Auckland.
Yep, I was just being fussy over the 'self' element of
samyoull's phrase 'managed
self-isolation' - my point being that that 'self-isolation' was a less strict 'stay at home' control measure used initially.
The current options are both Govt controlled and are:
managed isolation; or
quarantine
With the difference between these two as
nzkarit notes.
