Tuesday, 26 October 2021

Auckland will move into the 'red' setting of the Government's new Covid-19 traffic light system when the region hits 90 per cent double vaccine doses, even if the rest of the country hasn't hit the target.

More businesses on the North Shore have been added as locations linked to the Delta outbreak.

In Albany, a Z petrol station, Black Bull Liquor and Green and Grocery supermarket are all now locations of interest.

Rosedale Bakery and Cafe has also been added to the list after being visited by a Covid case on October 19.
