Today there are 14,128 cases to report and 943 people in hospital with COVID-19.
We are continuing to see increases in hospitalisations and demand in primary care and the Ministry of Health would like to acknowledge and sincerely thank health staff throughout the country who have been working tirelessly to care for those with COVID-19, on top of the range of care being provided to people across the health system.
The Ministry continues to work closely with DHBs to ensure there is a good level of capacity across the health system.
The best way to reduce the risk of severe illness from COVID-19 is to be up to date with vaccinations.
So, if you’re due any dose of the vaccine, including a booster, please get vaccinated as quickly as possible to ensure you are well protected against Omicron.
Positive or negative, please report your RAT results
The Ministry would like to thank the many people who are getting tested and reporting results.
Our message today is simple: positive, or negative, please report your RAT result.
It only takes a couple of minutes, and helps health officials assess the outbreak and better understand the spread of Omicron.
In addition to reporting the test results through ‘My Covid Record’, parents and caregivers are now able to report test results of children under 12 and other family members by calling the My Covid Record team on 0800 222 478.
COVID-19 related deaths
Sadly, 5 deaths of people with COVID-19 have been formally reported in the past 24 hours.
This takes the total number of publicly reported COVID related deaths to 156 and the 7-day rolling average of reported deaths to 8.
Delays to reporting can be associated with people dying with, rather than of COVID-19, and COVID being determined after they have died. Due to these fluctuations in the daily reported figures, the Ministry regards the 7 day rolling average as a better indicator of deaths with COVID.
Of the 5 people who have died, two were from Auckland, one from Waikato, one from Canterbury, and one from the Hutt Valley.
Of these people, one was in their 50s, two in their 70s and two in their 80s. Two were women and three were men.
Our thoughts are with their family and friends at this sad time.
Out of respect, we will be making no further comment.

Number of new community cases: 14,128
Number of new community cases (PCR): 382
Number of new community cases (RAT): 13,746

This is because of different reporting cut off times and the assignment of cases between regions, for example when a case is tested outside their usual region of residence. Total numbers will always be the formal daily case tally as reported to the WHO.
