Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins said on Q&A this morning the genomic sequencing suggests a link with the second family in the South Auckland cluster. But he said officials have not yet confirmed how the new community case got the virus. The new case - "Case M" - is a 21-year-old student who attends the Manukau Institute of Technology (MIT) and is the older brother of a Papatoetoe High School student. The new community case should have been in isolation, she said. And she was leaving no room for interpretation when it comes to how clear officials made this to the new community case.
