An emergency Cabinet meeting has been held and the government has announced that Wellington will move to Alert Level 2 from 6pm tonight until 11.59pm Sunday.

Here's what Alert Level 2 means for you.
__________________________________________________

UPDATE
June 23 11.52am

Eight more locations of interest have been added on the Ministry of Health website. These include:

- Floridita's Restaurant from 12.45pm to 4pm on June 19
- Highwater Eatery from 5.45pm to 9.30pm on June 19

- One Red Dog 20 June 7.00pm to 9.00pm on June 20
__________________________________________________

It's too early to tell whether an alert level change is needed in Wellington, according to Chris Hipkins. This comes after a positive Covid-19 case flew from Sydney to Wellington on June 19.

Four close contacts have so far been traced and others are being identified.
Timing of symptom onset indicates the traveller was infected in Australia before flying into New Zealand.

The traveller had one dose of the Astrazeneca vaccine, with the situation being described as low risk. The case was using the Covid-19 Tracer app.

Locations of interest are as follows:
- Qantas flight QF163 that arrived at 12.05am on June 19
- Rydges Hotel from 12am June 19 to 9.10am June 21
- Unichem Pharmacy on Lambton Quay from 10.38am to 11.48am June 19
- Te Papa from 3.05pm to 5.45pm on June 19
- Te Papa's Surrealist Art exhibit from 4pm to 5.45pm on June 19
- Jack Hackett's Bar from 8.45pm to 12am on June 19

Wellingtonians are encouraged to check their movements around June 19 to June 21 and to continue to check the Ministry of Health website as more locations of interest may be added.

For more information visit the Ministry of Health website.

Neighbourly will update this message as further information comes to hand.
