卫生部证实,一名 50 多岁的患者死于 Covid-19。

该患者于 12 月 11 日入住北岸医院,成为新西兰第 49 例死于该病的患者。

随着该国在全球大流行的阴影下进入第二个节日,45 人住院,其中 8 人在重症监护病房。

与此同时,周四报告了 62 例新的社区病例,分别在奥克兰(37 例)、怀卡托(5 例)、丰盛湾(14 例)、湖区(5 例)和坎特伯雷(1 例)。

卫生部今天表示,边境有 10 例新病例,但没有说明这些旅客有什么变异。

卫生部表示,在奥克兰住院的 41 人中,有 24 人未接种疫苗或因年龄原因不符合资格。

5 人部分免疫,10 人双重接种。 另一人的疫苗接种情况未知。

卫生部的声明只提供了奥克兰地区40人的疫苗接种情况,其余人的疫苗接种情况尚不清楚。

新西兰符合条件的人口目前有 91% 的人接种了双重疫苗,而 95% 的人已经接种了第一剂疫苗。

大约 265,497 人打了加强针,现在第二次接种后四个月可以接种。

该部的声明没有说明是否有任何新的 Omicron 病例。

周四在 MIQ 报告了三例新的高传染性变种病例,使具有高传染性变种的国际入境总人数达到 31。

周五的更新将是Boxing Day之前的最后一次更新,因为卫生部的工作人员将在圣诞节休息。

A patient in their 50s has died of Covid-19, the Ministry of Health has confirmed.

The patient, who was admitted to North Shore Hospital on December 11, becomes New Zealand’s 49th death from the disease.

As the country heads into a second festive season in the shadow of the global pandemic, there are 45 people are in hospital including eight in ICU.

Meanwhile, 62 new community cases were reported on Thursday, in Auckland (37), Waikato (5), Bay of Plenty (14), Lakes (five) and Canterbury (one).

The Ministry of Health said today there were 10 new cases at the border – but did not say what variant those travellers have.

Of the 41 people in hospital in Auckland, 24 were unvaccinated or ineligible due to their age, the ministry said.

Five were partially immunised and 10 were double vaccinated. The vaccination status of one other is unknown.

Friday’s update will be the last until Boxing Day, as the ministry’s staff will be having a break on Christmas Day.

在卫生部于下午 1 点发布最新的 Covid-19 病例数后,将知道有多少人的计划被 Covid-19 感染破坏了。

Delta 变体的病例在 8 月份引发了奥克兰长达数月的封锁,但最近几周急剧下降——昨天的新增社区病例为 56 例,大多数在奥克兰,而一个多月前每天有超过 200 例。

但是,如果病毒越过 MIQ 的防御,人们仍然担心最新的 Covid-19 变体——Omicron——会站稳脚跟。



 

昨天,在新西兰发现有 6 例新的 Omicron 病例处于隔离状态——共 28 例全部处于隔离状态。

这种具有高度传染性的变种已在海外迅速传播,自首次发现以来,病例数量激增,包括在南非、美国、英国和澳大利亚。

专家表示,这种变异可能不会导致 Delta 变异那么多的严重疾病,但由于严重疾病和死亡的滞后,现在确定还为时过早。

即使该变种比 Delta 更温和,也有人担心医院可能会因为感染人数过多而不堪重负。

本周,政府将计划在 1 月份与澳大利亚的免检疫边境开放推迟到至少 2 月底,并将加强疫苗接种的资格提前了两个月——被认为比91% 的符合条件的新西兰人两次接种疫苗可提供大大提高的针对 Omicron 的免疫力。

从 1 月 5 日起,任何至少四个月前接受第二剂辉瑞疫苗的 18 岁以上的人都可以接种加强剂。

从 1 月 17 日起,5 至 11 岁的儿童也可以接种疫苗。

虽然南岛和北岛的部分地区都处于橙色交通灯设置中,但奥克兰和北岛中部从旺格努伊到吉斯伯恩地区的大部分地区在 12 月30日晚上 11 点 59 分从最严格的红灯设置切换到橙色.

Northland 的疫苗接种率最低,为 83%,双重疫苗接种率是全国最低的,它将继续处于红灯状态——就像橙色一样,将某些活动仅限于接种疫苗,但也有能力限制以阻止超级传播者事件——至少直到1 月 17 日。




Just how many have had their plans spoiled by a Covid-19 infection will be known after the Ministry of Health releases the latest Covid-19 case numbers at 1pm.

Cases of the Delta variant, which sparked a months-long lockdown in Auckland in August, have fallen sharply in recent weeks – new community cases were at 56 yesterday, most in Auckland, compared to more than 200 a day just over a month ago.

But fears remain of the newest Covid-19 variant – Omicron – taking hold should the virus slip past MIQ defences.

There were six new cases of Omicron in managed isolation and quarantine yesterday, among 28 detected in New Zealand so far – all in isolation.

The highly-infectious variant has been spreading rapidly overseas, with surges in cases numbers since it was first detected, including in South Africa, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.

Experts have said the variant may not cause as much serious illness at the Delta variant, but due to the lag in serious illness and death it was still too soon to be sure.

Even if the variant was milder than Delta there are fears hospitals could be overwhelmed simply because so many more people are being infected.

The Government this week delayed the planned January quarantine-free border opening with Australia till at least the end of February, and brought forward eligibility for booster vaccination shots by two months – thought to offer much-improved immunity against Omicron than the two shots more than 91 per cent of eligible Kiwis have already received.

As of January 5 anyone aged over 18 who received their second dose of the Pfizer vaccine at least four months ago can get their booster.

Vaccinations are also being opened up for children aged between 5 and 11 from January 17.

While all the South Island and parts of the North Island are in the orange traffic light setting, Auckland and a swathe of the central part of the North Island from Whanganui to Gisborne districts switch from the strictest red light setting to orange at 11.59pm on December 30.

Northland, which has the country’s lowest vaccination rates at 83 per cent double-jabbed, will remain in the red light setting – which like orange restricts some activities to the vaccinated only, but also has capacity limits to stop super spreader events – until at least January 17.
