There are four new cases of coronavirus in New Zealand, with two in the community.
The other two new cases are imported, and were caught in managed isolation.
Both of the community cases are linked to the Auckland August cluster – which now has 161 cases linked to it.
The cluster is the biggest New Zealand has seen since the first outbreak of the virus.
The two imported cases are that of a male child and a woman in her 20s who both arrived from India on August 23.
They are both a close contact of separate previously reported confirmed cases.
The first of the cases linked to the cluster is a close contact of an existing case. The second is a household contact of a case linked to the Mt Roskill Evangelical Fellowship sub-cluster.
Both cases were already in isolation.
The Ministry of Health said 70 people linked to the cluster are in the Auckland quarantine facility – including 52 people with the virus and their household contacts.
Four people are in hospital with Covid-19 – three are stable and one is in ICU at Waikato Hospital.
Two people – Americold worker Alan Te Hiko and former Cook Island prime minister Joe Williams, died after contracting the virus late last week.
The number of active cases in New Zealand is now 118. Two community cases are considered recovered as of Monday.
The total number of people who have contracted the virus in New Zealand now stands at 1425.

Tongan tenor Manase Latu and Samoan bass-baritone Samson Setu were offered their places ahead of thousands of applications, and are the first New Zealand and the first Pasifika singers to participate in the world-renowned programme.
While they were due to be in New York in August, pandemic travel restrictions have meant they started their classes in early September, by Zoom.
Both grew up in South Auckland, and in an environment where music was a big part of their lives, at church, at Sunday school, at community gatherings.
“We were very shocked and didn't know what to say,” Manase said.
“But we thought, you know what, let’s go to New York and sing for them and we did and one thing led to another and well, we’re both heading off the Met!”
While Manase learned he been accepted onto the programme earlier this year, Samson only learned of his success in July, just as he had concluded that he hadn’t been accepted and had decided to become a plumber.
“The pandemic had made me reflect on my future, and was just about to enrol in plumber’s apprenticeship when they [the Met] emailed me to ask me if was still interested,” Samson said.
They are excited to be going together as “brothers”.

The live action remake of the children’s classic Mulan will premier at 7.30pm on Friday on the streaming service Disney+.
The film was pulled from Disney’s cinema release schedule due to the ongoing impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
Fans will have to pay $39.99 to gain “premium access” to view it, on top of the regular Disney+ subscription of $9.99/month. After several months the film will be available for free for all Disney+ subscribers.
The $440 million blockbuster was mostly filmed in New Zealand, and critics have praised the scenery.
Will you be watching the premier of Disney’s Mulan tonight from home?
