Covid-19: Update: What you need to know
Hi neighbours,
Auckland is back in alert level three after three new cases of Covid-19 were found in the community.
The locations of interest include LSG SkyChefs, Papatoetoe High School and Pak n Save Manukau on Cavendish Drive.
Aucklanders, including students, are asked to stay home.
Supermarkets, petrol stations and pharmacies will stay open.
Those identified as contacts or who were at the locations of interest are being asked to get tested.
The announcement, made by the Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern following a Cabinet meeting on Sunday evening, came after three members of a south Auckland family – a mother, father and daughter - contracted the virus.
The mother and daughter had visited places including Back Beach, Te Rewa Rewa Bridge and Pukekura Park between February 6 and 8.
