There's been no slowdown in the rate of new community cases of Covid-19, with 62 new positive cases yesterday, bringing the total to 210.
There are 12 people in hospital with the virus - 11 linked to the outbreak.
And last night South Auckland's Ōtāhuhu College became the 10th school to be linked to the Delta outbreak.
A person was infectious while at the school last Monday and Tuesday, just before the country went in to lockdown.
All 1000 students, 120 staff and those they live with are now being asked to get a test and isolate at home.
On alert levels, Auckland stays in lockdown to at least midnight on Tuesday, and Cabinet will decide tomorrow decides whether level 4 will stay in place after midnight that day.

... for a while yet. It looks like there has been MUCH more spread than was anticipated (or modelled), so it could be some time before we can relax.
