Today’s cases
*One case is an MIQ worker and is being investigated to determine whether it is a community or a border-related case.

**One case identified at the border has been reclassified as under investigation, resulting in a net increase of 96 cases
Christchurch cases
There are two community cases in Christchurch, both from the same household. One of the cases recently travelled to Auckland to provide childcare. Travel to provide childcare is permitted under Alert Level 3 if no other appropriate person is available locally.  

The person who travelled to Auckland had a negative test before travelling north and a second negative test before returning to Christchurch on Friday 15 October. The case was not considered infectious when they travelled back to Christchurch.
 
The other case works as a truck driver and the company the person works for is assisting with tracking their whereabouts during the four days the person was working during their infectious period. Initial information indicates the person was completing deliveries around the Christchurch area, with some trips to north Canterbury.  
 
Both people became unwell last week, were tested on 26 October and both returned positive test results last night. Currently there are three households where nine close contacts have been identified.

Both cases are currently isolating safety at home, with public health oversight, and with plans underway to transfer them to a local quarantine facility.  
 
The local public health unit is gathering further information from the cases to identify close contacts and exposure events, including any locations of interest.  
 
People across Canterbury are urged to closely monitor the Ministry’s locations of interest webpage, which is updated regularly.
 
In addition, people in Canterbury – especially those who live in Christchurch – with any symptoms, no matter how mild, are asked to please get tested, even if they are vaccinated. Unvaccinated people are urged to get vaccinated.
 
Testing and vaccination sites are available throughout Christchurch. Please see the Healthpoint website for locations.
 
Wastewater samples taken in Christchurch on Tuesday and COVID-19 was not detected.  ESR is collecting further samples from Waimakariri, covering Rangiora, Kiapoi and Woodend, and Ashburton, in addition to further testing in Christchurch.
 
So far, vaccination rates in Canterbury have remained steady with 89 percent of residents having received their first dose, and 68 percent fully vaccinated.
 
Auckland update
Auckland public health officials continue to urge residents in Redvale, Rosedale, New Lynn, Wiri, Drury, Manurewa and Henderson to get tested as soon as possible if they have even very mild symptoms that might be COVID-19, even if they are fully vaccinated.

This testing will help to provide assurance that any undetected spread of COVID-19 in these communities is identified as quickly as possible.

Testing is available at GP and Urgent Care clinics, with the locations of these can be listed on the Healthpoint website.
  
In Auckland, public health officials are now supporting 288 COVID-19 cases in the community to safely isolate at home.   

Waikato update
There are four new community cases in Waikato today - three in Hamilton and one in Ôtorohanga – and all are contacts of existing cases.
 
There are now just three cases in Waikato that remain unlinked epidemiologically but they are linked genomically.  
Initial test results of two further Tokoroa-based contacts of the Blenheim case are negative. This follows negative initial results from two contacts in the house where the case stayed before travelling to Blenheim.
 
These four close contacts are isolating and will undergo further testing.

Yesterday in Waikato there were 2,550 tests processed and 3,402 vaccinations given.




Blenheim update
No further locations of interest or contacts have been identified in the Nelson and Marlborough regions.

Northland update
There are no new confirmed cases of COVID-19 to report in Northland, with cases associated with this cluster remaining at seven.

Northlanders are urged to remain vigilant and get tested if they have any symptoms that could be COVID-19.
Testing and vaccination clinic locations across the region are listed on the Northland DHB website
Yesterday there were 792 COVID-19 tests completed in Northland and 1,442 vaccinations – 449 first doses and 993 second doses.
