There is one new case of Covid-19 in managed isolation, a week after the most recent community outbreak was announced in Auckland.

The new case arrived in New Zealand from Singapore on February 16 and tested positive after their routine day 3 test. One previously reported case has been reclassified as under investigation, meaning the number of active cases remains at 51.

The Ministry of Health also confirmed all close contacts associated with the Auckland family of three at the centre of the latest community outbreak had returned negative tests.

These include those linked to the school and travel group to New Plymouth.

The last cases detected in the community were on Friday, taking the total linked to the cluster involving a daughter, mother and father, to seven.

Papatoetoe High School

As at 8am on Sunday, a total of 31 close contacts and 1,413 casual plus contacts had been identified at Papatoetoe High School.

Twenty five health professionals were the first in the country to be vaccinated on Friday, before they administered the vaccines.

The number of casual plus contacts has again decreased due to some people not being at school at the time of exposure, the ministry said.

Of the casual plus contacts, that include the wider student and staff school population, 1,395 have returned negative results, with one positive (Case E, who is a classmate of the original case), and 17 results still to come in.

One negative result, reported on Saturday has been removed from the tally as that person is no longer considered a casual plus contact.

Going for a easier run

Derek from Papatoetoe

Well my trainer told me to go for a time run I was doing a 30 minute run everyday but found it to be to much. So he advised I go for a distance run instead thinking it be easier. So now I go for a 30 meter run each day instead off a 30 minute run. He is right this is way easier. 😂

Teachers and students from that school must return a negative test before returning next week.
