Covid-19: Where to get tested for coronavirus in wake of new cases in Auckland
Coronavirus testing in Auckland is being ramped up following confirmation of three new cases in the community, with people warned to be patient in case of delays.
The cases – a mother, father and daughter – were confirmed on Sunday and, along with another household contact, are being moved to the Jet Park quarantine facility.
The source of the infection is under investigation, but could be linked to the border as the mother works at LSG Sky Chefs laundry and catering company, which provides services for airlines.
Health officials are anticipating “high demand” at Covid-19 testing sites and warned delays were possible: “our request is to please be patient”.
As a result of the latest infections, a testing centre will be set up at Papatoetoe School for students, staff and parents to attend.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
