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.

Auckland Council is forecast to take a 1 billion dollar revenue hit because of COVID-19.
This 10-year budget aims to find a balance between investing in our city and not overburdening our residents.
It will provide for our city’s future while keeping our rates increases low compared to other growth cities in New Zealand, will help Auckland’s economy recover, support our communities, build water and housing infrastructure and improve our transport network.
We need your feedback on these issues and how we pay for them.

Unfortunately, we lost our beloved Rosie. She got really sick and never regained consciousness and past away 28.02.2021 at 4 o'clock in the morning. Our family really really miss her around.
I have asked the owner of the AVS (Auckland Vet Services) that they and all clinics should provide emergency care during the day as well as the night and to not turn pets away, just because they can't give an appointment. At present the only emergency vet available is the night time one, if you live out west,in Rosebank road.
It's really appauling how we had to wait until 2 o'clock in the afternoon that day before they could see her. By then it was too late.
I hope something gets done and soon.
By for now Julia.
