There are ten new cases in Nelson-Tasman today, but one will be officially added to tomorrow’s figures as it came in after the cut off time.

This takes the number of active cases in the region to 14.

These cases are made up of two clusters, with 11 in one and three in the other.

A possible connection between the two clusters is being investigated.

Two schools in Nelson, Enner Glynn School and Broadgreen Intermediate, have had cases. Both schools have temporarily closed while a risk assessment is undertaken and close contacts are identified. Next steps will then be agreed with the Ministry of Education.

Four new locations of interest in Nelson were added to the Ministry’s website yesterday afternoon.

People in the Nelson-Tasman region are asked to check this page as it is updated regularly.
