No new Covid-19 cases today, $37m for local vaccine

26 May 12:45 AM

Bloomfield visited Auckland's quarantine and managed isolation facilities on Friday and met with 300 workers.

Anyone arriving in New Zealand must spend at least 14 days in managed isolation or quarantine.

The 10,000th passenger entered the facilities at the weekend on a flight from Melbourne.

At any one time, more than 2000 people are in hotels being used for isolation or quarantine in Auckland.

So far about 8000 people have completed their stay in Auckland or Christchurch and have returned home.

Bloomfield said protecting the border was a "critical" part of the Government's strategy to eliminate Covid-19, especially now that domestic cases are at such low levels.

"We don't want to put the progress we have made in jeopardy and we know international arrivals continue to be a potential source of new cases.

"It was important to me to be satisfied that guests are being appropriately supported and that health requirements are being met."
