The Ministry of Health has this afternoon updated locations of interest, following a confirmed COVID-19 case in Christchurch.

The two locations are at Eastgate mall and the Countdown at the mall.

The COVID-19 positive case comes from a family of six, the Ministry of Health confirmed.

Interviews have determined a clear link to the Auckland cluster.

The person flew back to Christchurch on flight NZ 1295 last Saturday 13 November after travelling to Auckland for an event.

The person became symptomatic on Sunday and went for a test on Monday.

The household is isolating and will be tested.

Passengers on flight NZ1295 are advised to monitor for symptoms for the next 10 days and get a test today.
