There are 21 new cases of COVID-19 in the New Zealand community to confirm
today.
This brings the total number of cases in the community outbreak to 72.
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.
Of the 21 new cases, 20 are in Auckland and one is in Wellington – this case
was previously reported publicly yesterday but has officially been added to
the total case numbers today.
Wellington’s number of community cases remains at six.
Of the 72 cases, 61 cases are now confirmed as part of the Auckland cluster,
with the remaining 11 under investigation to confirm linkage to the outbreak.
Initial assessment shows in most cases there is a link.
ESR continues to run whole genome sequencing on samples taken from all new
cases to support ongoing investigations into the outbreak. ESR has completed
sequencing for 17 of these cases, including the three Wellington cases
reported yesterday, and found all have genome links to the Auckland cluster.
There are three new cases in recent returnees in a managed isolation facility.
