Today there are two new cases of Covid-19 to report in managed isolation facilities in New Zealand.
It has been 70 days since the last case of Covid-19 was acquired locally from an unknown source.
The first case is a man in his 20s who arrived in New Zealand on June 28 from India. He has been at the Sudima Auckland Airport facility since arrival. He tested negative on day 3 of his stay and has subsequently tested positive to an around day 12 test.
The second case is a man in his 20s who arrived in New Zealand on June 27 from England. He has been in managed isolation at the Sudima Lake Rotorua. He tested positive on 9 July on day 12 of his stay.
These cases bring our total number of confirmed cases to 1192, which is the number we report to the World Health Organization.

There is no one in New Zealand receiving hospital-level care for Covid-19.
