Repeat testing is under way to establish whether the Hokitika case is acute or historical, a ministry spokeswoman said.
People who had the virus may continue to shed fragments of it for some weeks after they have recovered, without being infectious to others.
The ministry on Monday evening published a single location of interest, New World Hokitika, “out of an abundance of caution”, she said.
The woman, who is double-vaccinated, is a worker at Besgrow’s Coastpak Sphagnum Moss factory in Hokitika. She tested returned two positive tests after returning from a holiday in the North Island, Besgrow managing director Anthony Washington said.
Besgrow is testing any staff who have recently travelled to the North Island when they return to work, using rapid antigen tests. The woman took the test in her car when she came back to the factory on Monday morning and took a PCR test afterwards, which also came out positive on Monday afternoon, he said.
“We are really happy that everything we have put in place has captured [the case] early and stopped any potential infection in the community,” Washington said.
The person who tested the woman at the factory was in full PPE and is now isolating too, he said.
The company ordered 300 rapid antigen tests before Christmas to cover 25 employees and has just ordered more to continue testing staff returning from locations of interest, Washington said.
It is the first case that has been recorded on the West Coast for 22 months, after a historical case was also confirmed on the coast yesterday. The historical case, who had Covid-19 in the past but had since recovered, was recorded in yesterday’s Ministry of Health official figures. The weak positive case is yet to appear in the official tally.
West Coast District Health Board (DHB) senior responsible officer for Covid-19 Philip Wheble said the DHB had set up additional testing capacity at the Hokitika Health Centre for the next two days.
A pop-up testing clinic is operating at Hokitika Health Centre from 10.30am to 12pm; 1.30pm – 3pm, Tuesday and Wednesday. Testing is free for anyone with symptoms or who has been advised to get tested by public health, but people should phone Healthline to make an appointment, the Ministry of Health said.

is running a large group of pig hunting dogs, who instantly decided to attack my dog.
the owner had no control of them as they had no collars on so it quickly escalated into what I believe was a fight for my dogs life.being so many dogs it was impossible to keep them off my dog. I stood over her to fight the dogs off but she was still getting bitten from every angle,it was a real battle. after a couple of minutes we managed to get my dog into this guys dog box which was a big relief.
we parted ways too quickly though as I was so physically exhausted and fairly shaken up after that ordeal I never got his details or number plate...so really hoping someone has seen or knows this vehicle in the area?
I am not wanting the dogs put down or anything as it's not the dogs fault the owner ran them in a public place. They are trained to kill so why risk it in public areas!? What if it was a small dog or even a child?? Was a scary situation to be in so hopefully this post creates a bit of awareness of that type of situation.
I would really appreciate the owner stepping up to pay the vet bill. My poor dog needed several staples to bigger cuts and had little puncture wounds basically over her entire body.not mention the mental scars.
I see alot of other dog walkers and families down at that exact spot so please keep an eye out and keep your pets an families safe.
To the owner of these dogs you can contact me directly. Cheers
