New Zealand: people who reported drinking less in and after lockdowns

A New Zealand survey conducted in April 2020 showed that 38 percent of the people drank less during the level 4 lockdown because they weren't able to, or haven't wanted to socialize as much. In the post lockdown period in June 2020, 33 percent of people drank less because of cost reasons post lockdown.
