There is one new case of Covid-19 in managed isolation, a week after the most recent community outbreak was announced in Auckland.

The new case arrived in New Zealand from Singapore on February 16 and tested positive after their routine day 3 test. One previously reported case has been reclassified as under investigation, meaning the number of active cases remains at 51.

The Ministry of Health also confirmed all close contacts associated with the Auckland family of three at the centre of the latest community outbreak had returned negative tests.

These include those linked to the school and travel group to New Plymouth.

The last cases detected in the community were on Friday, taking the total linked to the cluster involving a daughter, mother and father, to seven.

Papatoetoe High School

As at 8am on Sunday, a total of 31 close contacts and 1,413 casual plus contacts had been identified at Papatoetoe High School.

Twenty five health professionals were the first in the country to be vaccinated on Friday, before they administered the vaccines.

The number of casual plus contacts has again decreased due to some people not being at school at the time of exposure, the ministry said.

Of the casual plus contacts, that include the wider student and staff school population, 1,395 have returned negative results, with one positive (Case E, who is a classmate of the original case), and 17 results still to come in.

One negative result, reported on Saturday has been removed from the tally as that person is no longer considered a casual plus contact.

This year is the year of recovery from COVID-19, the economic impact and hit on Council revenue was real. Auckland Council is forecast to take a 1 billion dollar revenue hit because of COVID-19.

This 10-year budget aims to find a balance between investing in our city and not overburdening our residents.

It will provide for our city’s future while keeping our rates increases low compared to other growth cities in New Zealand, will help Auckland’s economy recover, support our communities, build water and housing infrastructure and improve our transport network.

We need your feedback on these issues and how we pay for them.

This year's event runs from March 20 - 30th with the theme being 'The Great Plant Swap' as an easy way for neighbourhoods to grow stronger together.

Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.
