Today we are reporting 5,745 community cases, 384 hospitalisations and 15 deaths.
The seven-day rolling average of community case numbers is 7,608 – last Sunday it was 7,510.
Today’s figures are an important reminder to remain vigilant. There are three actions everyone can do to help protect themselves and others from COVID-19.
Firstly – be up to date with vaccinations, including a booster if you’ve not yet had one.
Secondly – wear a mask. Masks are still required in many indoor settings. A good rule of thumb is to wear a mask in indoor public settings as we know that mask use halves the risk of spread of COVID-19.
And thirdly – stay home and avoid others if you’re unwell, isolating or waiting for the results of a COVID-19 test.
For guidance if you or someone you know tests positive or becomes a household contact, visit the Ministry of Health website.
COVID-19 deaths
Today we are sadly reporting the deaths of 15 people with COVID-19. The deaths being reported today include 13 people who have died over the past two days and two people who have died since 7 May.
These deaths take the total number of publicly reported deaths with COVID-19 to 973 and the 7-day rolling average of reported deaths is 16.
Of the people whose deaths we are reporting today; three people were from the Auckland region; two were from Waikato, one was from Taranaki, two were from the Wellington region, four were from Canterbury and three from Southern.
Two people were in their 50s, one in their 70s; nine in their 80s and three were aged over 90.
Of these people, seven were women and eight were men.
This is a very sad time for whānau and friends and our thoughts and condolences are with them at this time.
Out of respect, we will be making no further comment.
