There are no new cases of COVID-19 to report in New Zealand today. An update on the case we reported over the weekend – the man who is a recent returnee from India who completed his stay in managed isolation and has subsequently tested positive for COVID-19.
This case and his family members should be commended for the steps they have taken after the man became unwell following his departure from managed isolation.
After completing the 14 days in managed isolation, and returning two negative tests, this man remained alert to his health. He immediately self-isolated, sought advice and got a test and the whole family self-isolated when he became unwell.
