Covid-19 update from 4pm: Jacinda Ardern to speak on Alert Level decision
https://youtu.be/mgyMXknx07E
Live from 4pm: Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is addressing New Zealand on the
decision about whether to extend the current Alert Level 4 lockdown.
Read the latest update on cases from the Ministry of Health.
There are 35 new cases of COVID-19 in the New Zealand community to confirm
today. Of these 33 are in Auckland and 2 are in Wellington.
This brings the total number of cases in the community outbreak to 107.
All cases have or are being transferred safely to a managed isolation
facility, under strict infection prevention and control procedures, including
the use of full PPE.
As previously indicated, it’s not unexpected to see a rise in daily case
numbers at this stage. At its peak last year, New Zealand had a daily total
of 89 new cases.
The total number of community cases in Auckland is now 99 and Wellington’s
number of community cases has increased to 8.
Of the 107 cases in the cluster, 72 are already epidemiologically linked to
other community cases identified in the outbreak. Investigations are
continuing to determine whether and how the remaining 35 cases are linked to
the outbreak, however most have a plausible link on initial assessment. For
example, people were at a location of interest. We will continue to release
this information and new locations of interest as it becomes available.
ESR also continues to run whole genome sequencing on cases. Yesterday 29
samples were sequenced and all were confirmed as being linked to the Auckland
outbreak.
There are three new cases in recent returnees in managed isolation facilities.
