From Midday Report, 12:40 pm on 27 August 2021

Staff and residents at a Warkworth rest home are being tested for Covid-19, after a worker returned a positive result. They had been at the CHT Amberlea facility while potentially infectious, and it's thought they contracted the virus from a household contact. Some other staff members who are close contacts, are now self-isolating. Māni Dunlop speaks to the local MP for Kapara ki Mahurangi National's Chris Penk.
