A family in South Auckland has tested positive to Covid-19. It’s important to arm yourself with information to keep you and others in our community safe.

This is the easiest way to keep up-to-date with the Government’s latest advice.

If you are in Auckland

Work from home if you can, unless you are an essential worker. Remain home if possible. Stay in your bubble.

The Pacific Business Trust helpline is here to support Pacific businesses and sole traders, call 0800 287 7526 or email info@pacificbusiness.co.nz. 

If you're unwell

• If you’re sick, stay home.

• If you have symptoms of cold or flu call your doctor or Healthline and get advice about being tested.

• If you have been told to self-isolate you must do so immediately.

Get a free Covid-19 test if you have cold or flu symptoms. Testing locations here.  Schools

Schools in Auckland remain open for the children of essential services workers. Otherwise, students should learn from home.

When you're out and about

Maintain physical distancing of 2 metres outside your home, including on public transport. Wear a mask. Practise good hygiene. Keep your bubble small.

Gatherings

Gatherings of up to 10 people can continue, but only for wedding services, funerals and tangihanga. Physical distancing and public health measures should be maintained.
