Covid-19: Where to get tested for coronavirus in wake of new cases in Auckland
Coronavirus testing in Auckland is being ramped up following confirmation of three new cases in the community, with people warned to be patient in case of delays.
The cases – a mother, father and daughter – were confirmed on Sunday and, along with another household contact, are being moved to the Jet Park quarantine facility.
The source of the infection is under investigation, but could be linked to the border as the mother works at LSG Sky Chefs laundry and catering company, which provides services for airlines.
Health officials are anticipating “high demand” at Covid-19 testing sites and warned delays were possible: “our request is to please be patient”.
As a result of the latest infections, a testing centre will be set up at Papatoetoe School for students, staff and parents to attend.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
