Published: Fri 16 Apr 2021 12:55 PM
There are no new cases in the community to report today.
There is one new positive case of COVID-19 to report in managed isolation since our last media statement yesterday. The new case is a contact of a previously reported case who is in quarantine. The seven-day rolling average of new cases detected at the border is four.
The total number of active cases in New Zealand today is 100.
Our total number of confirmed cases is 2,234. Two previously reported cases have now been reclassified. Both are now deemed historical and were reported in their respective countries of origin, so are not included in New Zealand’s figures. This has created a net change in our total confirmed cases of -1 since our statement yesterday.
Since 1 January 2021, there have been 46 historical cases, out of a total of 418 cases.
