Today we are reporting 20,907 community cases, 1,016 hospitalisations and 15 deaths.

We have seen an increase today in case numbers across most regions of New Zealand, however it’s not unexpected as we generally see lower testing and reporting over weekends.

Getting boosted continues to be one of the most important ways people can protect themselves from Omicron and severe illness.

There is a much lower risk of being hospitalised if you are up to date with your vaccinations, which, for Omicron, includes a third or booster dose.

COVID-19 related deaths
Sadly, we are today reporting an additional 15 people have died.

These deaths take the total number of publicly reported COVID related deaths to 199 and the 7-day rolling average of reported deaths to 10.

Of these 15 people who have died, nine are from the Auckland region, three from Waikato, and three from the Wellington region

One of these people was in their 50s, three in their 60s, six in their 70s, and five were in their 80s.

Eight were men and seven were women.

Our thoughts and condolences are with their family and friends at this sad time.

Out of respect, we will be making no further comment.

Testing
Testing continues to play an important part in our response to COVID-19.

If you’re symptomatic, please stay at home and get a test.

If you’re unsure whether or not to get a test, please contact your health professional or Health on 0800 358 5453 and follow advice.

If you test positive for COVID-19, you are required to isolate for 7 days. You do not need to be retested after your initial positive result. You can return to work or school after your isolation period ends without another test, unless you work in a high risk workplace like a healthcare setting.

If you still have symptoms after 7 days, stay home until you feel better and then wait another 24 hours.

Your household contacts should also stay at home, have tests at day 3 and 7 or if they develop symptoms.
