From Morning Report, 7:09 am on 13 November 2020

Aucklanders are anxiously waiting to find out today if they'll have to deal with another Covid-19 clampdown as health officials work round the clock to contain a new mystery community case.

They have no idea how the woman in her twenties who lives and works in the CBD caught the virus.

Urgent genome sequencing has been done overnight and testing is underway.

Now 100,000 Aucklanders who work in the CBD are being urged to work from home.
