Wastewater

There was an unexpected detection of the virus in a wastewater sample collected from Gisborne on 1 December. A further sample was collected yesterday with results expected over the weekend. Anyone living in the region with symptoms – no matter how mild – is encouraged to get a test.

Testing is available today and over the weekend at the following location:

  • Drive-through at 110 Peel Street
    • 1pm – 5pm (today)
    • Saturday and Sunday: 9am – 4pm

Vaccination centres operating today and over the weekend.

Today’s cases

Today, we are reporting new community cases in Northland, Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Lakes, and Taranaki.

There are no additional cases to report today in Hawke’s Bay, MidCentral, Wairarapa, Wellington, Nelson Marlborough or Canterbury.

Regional updates

We’re asking anyone in New Zealand with symptoms – no matter how mild – to please get tested, even if you’re vaccinated. Please remain isolated until you return a negative test result.

If you are not vaccinated, now is the time, as vaccination is number one defence against COVID-19. Your DHB or local health provider will have plenty of opportunities to make this happen.

Testing and vaccination centre locations nationwide can be found on Healthpoint

Northland

There is one new case to report in Kaitaia today. The case is a household close contact of a previously reported case.

Following investigation, a previously reported Kaitaia case has been reclassified as not a case.

Testing and vaccination sites open in Northland can be found at Northland DHB

Auckland

Today, there are 80 new cases being reported in Auckland.  

There continues to be a daily review of testing numbers and testing locations to ensure good coverage of risk areas.  

Health staff are now supporting 3,582 people to isolate at home, including 1,202 cases. 

Waikato

There are two cases in the Waikato. The location for one of these cases is currently under investigation. The other case lives in Rotorua but is isolating in the Waikato region and is being transferred to Waikato.

There is also a case isolating in Whitianga who had recently relocated from Auckland in compliance with the border and travel requirements.  The case is currently included in Auckland’s reporting but may be transferred to Waikato.

Two new locations of interest were confirmed yesterday in Ōtorohanga.

Nine pop-up and dedicated testing sites are operating across the Waikato today in Hamilton, Huntly, Ngāruawāhia, Te Kūiti, Waharoa, Thames, Taumarunui, and Ōtorohanga.

There are two COVID-19 positive patients in Waikato Hospital ICU. 

In the Waikato, public health staff are now supporting 90 cases to isolate at home.

Bay of Plenty

Today there are five new cases to report in the Bay of Plenty. Three of these cases are contacts of known cases and were already isolating. Investigations into how the other two cases are linked to the outbreak are continuing.

One previously reported case is receiving care in Tauranga Hospital.

Lakes

There is one new case to report in the Lakes district today with investigations continuing to determine how they are linked to the current outbreak.

A person previously receiving hospital care has now been discharged.

Taranaki

Today we are reporting two COVID-19 cases in Taranaki and announcing a further two cases, which will be officially included in tomorrow’s tally. This includes the three cases announced by the Ministry of Health yesterday, taking the total number of active cases in the region to four. A further case, which tested positive in Taranaki, is today included in the Waikato case numbers as they reside in the region.

 


The four cases are across linked households and have a known link to a previously reported case in Rotorua. They are all self-isolating.

On the advice of the local health unit, Devon Intermediate School in New Plymouth has closed today after it was linked to one of these cases.

Close contacts associated with the school have been identified and testing is underway today. Case interviews are ongoing, and any further locations of interest will be published at locations of interest.
