The case follows the discovery on Thursday night of six infected people – all linked to each other and to the Auckland outbreak – in Stratford. The Taranaki town, which remains at alert level 2, had 10 days earlier been the location of positive wastewater tests.

There have also been wastewater detection scares in Gisborne and Napier this month, despite there being no MIQ facilities or known cases of Covid-19 self-isolating in either location.

Detections were found between November 1 and November 3, but none since.
检测是在 11 月 1 日至 11 月 3 日之间发现的,但此后没有发现。
The virus hasn’t been detected in other parts of the country in the last week, but warnings have been sounded that it was coming to all of New Zealand – most recently by Taranaki District Health Board medical officer of health Dr Jonathan Jarman, following the Stratford cases.

公共卫生主任卡罗琳·麦克埃尔奈博士说,昨天有 81 人住院,其中 11 人在 ICU,但医院系统正在应对。
重症监护室已满 70%,呼吸机容量为 15%。
“我们可以管理,但重要的是我们要限制医院的负担。”
让尽可能多的符合条件的人接种疫苗的努力仍在继续。
在昨天住院的人中,有 51 人未接种疫苗,20 人接种了一剂,一名接种了第二剂——但在被感染前不到 14 天——还有 5 人完全接种了疫苗。
许多面向人群的职业的疫苗规定已经或即将开始——截至周一,教育、健康和残疾部门的工作人员肯定已经接受了第一次接种。
有报道称,数千人可能会离开他们的工作,而疫苗强制令已成为本周抗议活动的焦点,其中包括在议会外举行的一场有数千人参加的抗议活动。
反政府抗议者今天上午晚些时候在奥克兰和惠灵顿等城市开始低速集会,奥克兰约有 200 辆汽车,惠灵顿有 50 辆。
但在世界范围内使用的疫苗强制令得到了广泛的政治支持。
最新的 Talbot Mills Research 民意调查也显示出公众的强烈支持——78% 的人同意为卫生工作者接种疫苗,76% 的人同意为教师接种疫苗。
新西兰有资格接种疫苗的人中有 90% 至少接种了一剂。 80% 的人已完全接种疫苗。
12 岁以下的孩子还不能接种疫苗,但从周三开始,3 级地区的学校可以再次向 1 至 10 年级的所有孩子敞开大门。高年级的学生已经回到了教室。
学校管理的规则包括将孩子们放在不同的、稳定的群体中,不要混在一起,在可行的情况下使用物理距离,并要求 4 年级及以上的孩子在室内戴口罩。
卫生总干事阿什利·布卢姆菲尔德 (Ashley Bloomfield) 博士上周表示,他们预计辉瑞将“在未来几周内”向 Medsafe 申请儿童疫苗。
如果 Medsafe 暂时批准,内阁将就使用做出最终决定。
“如果它通过这些批准程序——或者如果以及何时——在 2022 年,它将被提供”。
