与此同时，新西兰登记了第三个与边境有关的 Omicron 病例 – 新西兰航空公司机组人员的家庭联系人，上周对该高传染性变种检测呈阳性。
预计卫生部将在今天下午 1 点的更新中提供有关 Omicron 在新西兰的更多信息。
由于 Omicron 变种的全球出现，该疫苗的第二剂和加强剂之间的差距缩短了，该变种比以前的毒株更具传染性。
至少四个月前接受第二剂注射的 18 岁及以上的任何人都可以获得加强剂。
在奥克兰，机场停车换乘免下车疫苗接种中心已经重新开放，这大大增加了疫苗接种工作的应急能力。

昨天，奥克兰卫生官员表达了他们的担忧，即在鹈鹕俱乐部的护送机构和按摩院暴露后，社区中可能会出现更多阳性病例和密切接触者。
发言人说：“因此，公共卫生部门要求在 12 月 22 日至 31 日期间访问过该场地的任何人拨打 0800 358 5453 联系 Healthline，并遵循暴露关注地点网站上提供的建议。”
目前的建议是：
• 在最后一次访问鹈鹕俱乐部后隔离（呆在家里）10 天。
• 无论他们是否有症状，在这些日期最后一次在场地后的第 5 天和第 8 天接受检测。
• 如果在 10 天内的任何时间出现症状，请立即进行额外测试。
• 待在家里直到所有检测结果都呈阴性。
• 访问疫情关注地点网站以在线记录他们的访问或致电健康热线 0800 358 5453。这样联系追踪者就可以提供进一步的建议。
卫生官员说，俱乐部的工作人员正在从他们的经理那里得到具体的建议。
过去两周，奥克兰的另外两个成人娱乐俱乐部 美人鱼俱乐部（The Mermaid Club） 和 Femme Fatale 也与 Covid-19 阳性病例有关。
位于戈尔街 13 号的美人鱼俱乐部在 12 月 22 日星期三晚上 11 点 40 分到 12 月 23 日星期四凌晨 1 点之间出现了一个病例。

The interval between a person’s second vaccine and their booster is officially reduced today to four months from six months.
It comes as New Zealand registers its third border-related Omicron case – a household contact of the Air New Zealand crew member who tested positive last week with the highly transmissible variant.
The Ministry of Health is expected to give further information on Omicron’s presence in New Zealand in its 1pm update today.
The gap between the second and booster doses of the vaccine were shortened due to the global emergence of the Omicron variant, which is more transmissible than previous strains.
Anyone aged 18 and over who had their second dose at least four months ago can get a booster dose.
In Auckland, the Airport Park and Ride drive-through vaccination centre has reopened, which added significant surge capacity for vaccination efforts.
The drive-through is located at 42 Verissimo Drive, Māngere, and operates from 10am-5pm with no appointment needed. It can vaccinate more than 4000 people per day.
On the latest Omicron case, the ministry confirmed the person had been in isolation during their symptomatic period and was fully vaccinated.
There were no locations of interest related to the person at 1pm yesterday but public health officials were continuing to investigate the person’s movements.
The household contact has now been transferred to a MIQ facility. The second household contact, who is also in isolation, continues to test negative.
There were 31 new cases in the community yesterday. There were 29 further cases found at the border.
Some border cases were expected to have the Omicron variant and whole genome sequencing was ongoing.
