Covid-19 - A health worker gives out Rapid Covid-19 Antigen Self-Test 'RAT.'

Covid-19 - A health worker gives out Rapid Covid-19 Antigen Self-Test 'RAT.'

"There are 655 new cases of Covid-19 to report today in the MidCentral rohe (region), with 18 cases in Palmerston North Hospital.

These cases have been identified through a combination of PCR and rapid antigen tests (RATs).

In order to give the community an update on the distribution of cases across the rohe, we have provided a breakdown of where cases are being cared for by each of our care in the community hubs.

We have one hub in each district and when a case is confirmed via PCR or RATs test, they are notified if the person's residential address is within that district.

Owing to reporting cut-offs, the active case number may not always match the reporting from the Ministry of Health and can change significantly day-to-day.

The number of cases also does not reflect any undetected cases in the community or those who are being cared for by a different DHB but are isolating in our rohe.

Given the number of Covid-19 cases around the country, you should assume you may have been exposed to Covid. Isolate and get tested if you experience any symptoms.
