Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield says the other two cases include one returnee and one other community case that is linked to the November quarantine cluster.

Yesterday one new case was reported in managed isolation and the West Indies men’s cricket team were to be denied further training privileges after breaking managed isolation rules inside their Christchurch facility.
