Health officials failed to tell a disability service it was linked to a cluster of Covid-19 cases before publicly outing it online.
The Ministry of Health yesterday announced 14 significant outbreaks of the infectious disease across the country.
It has since revised that number back down to seven, after it clarified clusters are outbreaks with more than 10 cases.
But this was after it publicly named Spectrum Care, and seven other individuals and companies, on its website.
Meanwhile, cases linked to outbreaks at an Auckland Catholic School, a cattle conference in Queenstown, a wedding in Bluff and a St Patrick's Day party in a small Waikato town, continue to rise.
It has just been announced that 37 more people who have links to the Matamata party have tested positive.
