Why lockdown a place with no Coronavirus community spread confirmed?

Marcos Louzada made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

Ministry of Health did not have the information requested.

From: Marcos Louzada

Dear Ministry of Health,

I live in Christchurch where we don't have any community spread of Coronavirus confirmed. What is the reason to close business and schools if your information is that there is no community spread? We know that virus will get here sooner or later, if you lockdown now we will need a second one sooner. So what is the point?

Yours faithfully,

Marcos Louzada

Dear Ministry of Health,

it is sad to see that you do not have an answer and we are all going to suffer with several lockdowns. I pray that God have mercy for your acts.
