Wellington's Te Papa museum will re-open to the public tomorrow.

It was closed last week after becoming a location of interest in the most recent Covid-19 scare.

The virus-positive Australian traveller visited the museum's new Surrealist Art exhibition.

More than 90 staff are now self-isolating.
