Health officials are scrambling to identify the link in a new Covid-19 community case in Auckland.

So far, authorities haven't traced the infection back to the border or MIQ.

Siouxsie Wiles says that while we don't know what strain of Covid the new case has yet, given that Delta is the dominant strain, we can probably assume it's Delta until we hear otherwise.

She also encourages people not to panic and reminds them not to stockpile and that the supermarkets will remain open.
