Since Auckland moved to alert level 3 the list of locations has rapidly spread across a wide geographical area.
It is expected some of the locations could also be outside Auckland after an outbreak was discovered in the Waikato over the weekend. Cases have been found in Hamilton and Raglan.
However, not every incident of possible exposure will be published. Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson told TVNZ this morning that some of the locations of interest around Hamilton had instead been named as "exposure events".
That was because everyone connected to that place of interest - for example, a workplace - could be identified.
Locations added yesterday include Zest apartments in central Auckland, Farro in Mt Eden, Pak'n'Save in Henderson, a dairy and a McDonald's in Wairau Valley, a petrol station in Albany and a supermarket in Ōtāhuhu.
