Intro
Statement
Opinion
Reasons
New Zealand is currently in its 3rd week of a strict lockdown during the Coronavirus Pandemic. A highly debated topic is “Should lockdown last more than 4 weeks?-”. I think it should/should not last longer than 4 weeks.
Pro: People’s money is heavily impacted, they have to stay home in their “bubbles” with their families, but it keeps them safe.
Con: Children can’t go to school, people might run out of food or other resources, and can’t travel.
Here is my writing.

1: money
For the word “Money” I think it's a great idea to last another 4 weeks because by the time another virus comes we won't be able to work for money and so we must save them and spend them wisely.
2: safety
For our safety I think lasting another 4 week is brilliant because we never know if it's alright to go out. And by the time we go out of the house people might be still sick.
3: bubbles
For my opinion i think staying at home is the safest way to stay away from people for 2 meters and to stay away from strangers.
In conclusion, I think it will be best if the lockdown lasts longer than 4 weeks so we can all be protected from Coronavirus.
