A cluster of coronavirus cases is reportedly connected to a dementia unit at a Christchurch aged care facility. Email oliver.lewis@stuff.co.nz123rf.com A cluster of 10 coronavirus cases has been linked to a Christchurch rest home. Barlow said on Monday two carers had also tested positive for Covid-19. The first had been off work since about mid-March with a chest infection, she said, and had tested positive after they had "been through the illness". A previously reported cluster of eight cases connected to Christchurch compost firm Living Earth does not meet the current threshold for a "cluster" of 10 or more cases.
