The vaccine remains New Zealand’s key defence against all variants of COVID-19, including Omicron.

On Monday, the vaccine will be available for 5 to 11 year olds to get protected against COVID-19. We encourage all parents with children in this age group to take them to get vaccinated. A full list of vaccination centres can be found on the Healthpoint website.

The Ministry continues to ask everyone who is eligible to get vaccinated. We are strongly recommending boosters for anyone over the age of 18 who had their second dose of the vaccine at least four months ago.

Today we are reporting 25 people at the border with COVID-19. New Zealand continues to see many border cases arriving from overseas, reflecting the growing number of Omicron cases globally.

The seven-day rolling average of border cases is 30.

As part of our collective preparations for Omicron please check your details are up to date with your regular healthcare provider and in the COVID-19 Tracer app.

Today’s cases
We are reporting new community cases in Northland, Auckland, Bay of Plenty, Lakes and Wellington.

Regional updates
We are continuing to ask anyone in New Zealand with symptoms – no matter how mild – to get tested, even if you’re vaccinated. Please stay at home until you return a negative test result.  We are also asking people to regularly check the locations of interest as these are regularly updated and to follow the advice provided.

Testing and vaccination centre locations nationwide can be found on the Healthpoint website.

Please also continue to check for any updated Locations of Interest and appropriate health advice, updated regularly on the Ministry’s website.

Northland
There are two new cases to report in Kaikohe today. They are from the same household and are in isolation. Investigations are underway to determine how they are linked to the current outbreak.

There are currently four active cases in Northland.

Auckland
There are 11 cases to report in Auckland today.

Health and welfare providers are now supporting 850 people in the region to isolate at home, including 180 cases.

Auckland MIQ worker
An Auckland based MIQ worker returned a positive result for COVID-19 late yesterday afternoon and is currently in isolation.

The test was taken as part of routine border worker surveillance testing.

Whole genome sequencing is being carried out to determine what variant the infection is and the results will be reported in tomorrow’s 1pm COVID-19 update.

Investigations are underway to determine if the infection originated from the community or the facility.

The worker is fully vaccinated and up-to-date with regular testing.

Household contacts of the MIQ worker all returned negative tests last night.

All Managed Isolation and Quarantine facilities follow very strict Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) measures developed by the Ministry of Health to manage the risks of spreading COVID-19, and workers in MIQ facilities undergo regular routine testing.
