COVID-19 deaths
Today we are sadly reporting the deaths of nine people with COVID-19 who have died in the past two days.

These deaths take the total number of publicly reported deaths with COVID-19 to 1,149 and the seven-day rolling average of reported deaths is 14.

Of the people whose deaths we are reporting today; one was from the Northland region, three were from the Auckland region, one was from Waikato, one was from Wairarapa, two were from Canterbury, and one was from South Canterbury.

Two people were their 60s, four were in their 70s, and three were in their 80s.

Of these people, four were female and five were male.

This is a very sad time for whānau and friends and our thoughts and condolences are with them.

Out of respect, we will be making no further comment on these deaths.
