Regarding the change in approach to reporting locations of interest in Auckland, McElnay said they’ve looked at the risk of people being infected in places like supermarkets and found it to be low. She said it made sense to make this change in Auckland due to the volume of cases and locations, and there’s a danger that the people who need to be targeted get lost in the detail.
Back to MIQ and self-isolation, Robertson said people are coming from all over the world and they don’t know where they want to end up in the country.

They could build a system to manage this, but they don’t have one at the moment.

Each DHB has plans to ensure they have rooms available, should they need them. This is a manageable situation at the moment, Roberston said, regarding the levels of hospitalisations.
The more testing in Northland the better. An assessment of the situation will take place on Sunday morning, McElnay said.
在北地进行的测试越多越好。 McElnay 说,对情况的评估将在周日早上进行。
Yesterday, over 1000 tests were performed, she said that’s a good number that she wants to see sustained. But it’s also about testing in the right places.
