Auckland Covid-19 cluster - how it has spread

From Checkpoint, 5:21 pm on 14 August 2020

The cluster of community Covid-19 case has grown to 30, with 12 new confirmed cases and one probable.

And it's now spread outside of Auckland. Health officials are still treating it as a single outbreak all connected to the original infected south Auckland family - what they refer to as the index cases.

But there is one new case - a person with Covid-19 who is in hospital, and that case is still being investigated to confirm a link back to that original family.
