Covid-19: Two south Auckland takeaway shops visited by community case
Two new locations of interest, visited by a community case of Covid-19, have been released by the Ministry of Health.
The two new locations are Choice Food Bar and Li’l Abners Takeway.
Both are on Great South Rd in Papatoetoe.
Those who have visited these locations on February 19 between 1am to 1:20am are considered ‘casual plus contacts’ of the community cases.
They are advised to remain at home until they receive a negative test result and to monitor for any symptoms for 14 days.
It comes after three community cases were announced on Tuesday, connected to a south Auckland family who had previously tested positive for the virus.
Kmart Botany and Dark Vapes in East Tāmaki have previously been announced as locations of interest, with one of the cases working at Kmart.
The three community cases are linked to Papatoetoe High School, with two being siblings and students at Papatoetoe High school and the other an infant sibling.
The school reopened on Monday but was later closed again following the news of the new cases linked to the high school.
One case is a classmate of the daughter from the original case that was announced on Valentine's Day.
Following the news, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced an alert level change, with Auckland moving to level 3 and the rest of New Zealand to level 2.
