There are 68 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
277. One case reported yesterday has been reclassified as not a case after
being confirmed as a false positive.
The total number of community cases in Auckland is now 263 and in Wellington
it is 14. The two new Wellington cases are household contacts of a current
case and were in isolation during their infectious period.
All of the cases have or are being transferred safely to a quarantine
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.
There are 154 cases to date which are epi-linked, and a further 123 for which
links are yet to be established.
There are currently 6 epidemiologically-linked subclusters identified within
this outbreak. The two largest clusters are the Birkdale Social Network
cluster associated with Case A (approximately 41 confirmed cases), and a
cluster associated with the Mangere church (approximately 117 confirmed
cases). The remaining clusters have fewer than 15 people associated with
them.
Of these 68 new cases, 49 of these are Pacific peoples, eight are Asian,
three are European, three are Māori, and as yet, the ethnicity is unknown of
five.
Fifteen of the current community cases are in a stable condition in hospital;
there are no cases in ICU. Of these, three are in North Shore Hospital, seven
are in Middlemore Hospital, and five are in Auckland City Hospital.
There is one new case in a recent returnee in a managed isolation facility.
