Today we are officially recording two Rotorua cases, which were first announced by the Ministry yesterday.

MidCentral update

There are no new cases in the MidCentral DHB region to report today.

Interviews are continuing, but whole genome sequencing results indicate that the two cases reported yesterday have links back to the Waikato cluster.

The cases remain in isolation in the same household.

MidCentral DHB would like to pass on its gratitude to local communities, particularly in Tararua, who have been tested already.

The Ministry is continuing to encourage testing for anyone with mild symptoms of COVID-19 in Tararua and ask people to check the locations on interest on the Ministry of Health’s webpage.

Testing is available today at a number of locations, please go to https://www.healthpoint.co.nz/covid-19/midcentral/ and check out Midcentral DHB Facebook page for up to date information.

Two of these cases, in Rotorua, were first announced yesterday by the Ministry and have been officially recorded today. In addition, there is a new case in Taupō, to report.

The person, in Taupō, is a household contact of a known case and is isolating at home.

This takes the total number of cases in the Lakes district in this outbreak to six. The additional Taupō case was reported after the 9am cut off time today so will be officially added to the numbers tomorrow.

The two Rotorua COVID-19 cases, first reported yesterday, are now self-isolating in Auckland, with whānau support available to them.

We are encouraging anyone with COVID-19 related symptoms in the region to get tested. Testing is available today in Rotorua and Taupō. Please check the Healthpoint website for details.

Wairarapa update

A positive test result has this morning been received in the Wairarapa town of Masterton. It has come in after the Ministry’s 9am reporting cut off so will be added to official numbers tomorrow.

Local public health officials believe this case was found early in the course of their infection. They are carrying out interviews with the person today to identify any close contacts and exposure events.

People in Wairarapa are advised to check the Ministry’s website for any locations of interest and if they have symptoms, even if they are mild and they are vaccinated, get a free COVID-19 test at your nearest medical practice. Please check the Healthpoint website for details.

Northland update

There are two cases to report in Northland today – both are in Kaitaia and both are linked to known cases.

We continue to urge anyone in Northland with COVID-19 symptoms – no matter how mild – to get tested. Testing locations in Northland can be found on the Northland DHB website.

Northland locations of interest continue to be reported, and we do ask people in Northland to check the Ministry of Health’s webpage.

We’re also encouraging anyone who visited Sacred Heart Dargaville church on November 7 between 9am and 10.30am to get tested today, and isolate at home until you receive a negative test result.

There are no new cases to report in Taranaki today. Testing levels remained high over the weekend and public health staff are continuing to encourage anyone with COVID-19 related symptoms, no matter how mild, to get tested.

All five close contacts of the Stratford cases have so far tested negative, and public health staff will be continuing to monitor close contacts and retest them if necessary.

There are a number of testing sites open today, including in Stratford, New Plymouth, Hāwera, Waitara and Ōpunake. Testing is free. For locations and times, please visit the DHB’s website.

Waikato update

There are seven new cases to report in Waikato today. Three of the cases were from Ōtorohanga, two from Hamilton, one from Kawhia, and one from Huntly. Five of today’s cases are linked. Interviews with the remaining two cases are continuing to determine any links to existing cases.

One of the unlinked cases is in Huntly and undergoes regular surveillance testing so isn’t thought to explain the recent positive COVID-19 detection in wastewater in the area. However, interviews with the case today will also help discover any other potential cases in the area.

Three new locations of interest were added yesterday in Hamilton, Ōtorohanga, and Te Kuiti.

There are four pop-up and dedicated testing sites operating across Waikato today in Hamilton, Te Kuiti, and Ōtorohanga, with GP practices offering testing across the Waikato, including Te Awamutu and Raglan. Please check the DHB’s website for details.
