There are no new cases of Covid-19 in New Zealand today, the Ministry of Health said in a statement.

That includes both community and MIQ cases.

The Ministry also revealed that the Hamilton Covid-19 case is believed to be historical and not infectious, and the person has been discharged from the quarantine facility.

“Genomic sequencing on this case was inconclusive due to the very small amount of viral material in the sample. The test will be re-run later this week,” the Ministry said.

“Genomic sequencing is one of a range of factors, alongside clinical history, PCR test results and serology in considering whether cases are historical. The local public health unit has considered these factors in making its clinical assessment of the case.

“We will provide any further detail around genomic sequencing later this week.”
