Health authorities are scrambling this morning to meet the demands of thousands of Wellingtonians waiting to get a Covid-19 test.
It comes after an Australian man who spent the weekend in the city tested positive following his return to Sydney.
The capital went into Level 2 at 6 o'clock last night, limiting gatherings to fewer than 100 people and social distancing of two metres outside people's homes.
As more information came out, thousands of people went to testing centres, and hit the phones, overwhelming general practices and Healthline.
