紐西蘭衛生部長David Clark由於執意驅車20公里前往海灘度假,
而在今日遞交辭呈下台以示負責,他的行為已違反紐國政府發布的*四級封禁令(註一),
不過紐國總理Jacinda Ardern表示不會把Clark踢出團隊,頂多給予降職處分,
因為現在是"非常時期",急需要經驗人士來指揮防疫。
至於Clark表示"極度後悔",並且在接受訪問時稱自己是"白癡、傻屌、笨蛋"等詞語,
同時也對全體紐國人表達"最深度歉意"(註二)。

(註二) Clark採訪語錄:
"At a time when we are asking New Zealanders to make historic sacrifices I've
let the team down. I've been an idiot."
"felt like a complete dick to be honest".
"wasn't thinking"
"I make no excuses for it, Mike. I got it wrong,"
"I've made a fool of myself. I need to be really clear on that and apologise
to New Zealanders."
