People in Taranaki urged to get tested
Anyone with cold or flu symptoms in Taranaki, or anyone who has visited Taranaki after arriving from Australia has been called on to get tested for Covid-19, but few are lining up.
Authorities earlier detailed two positive results for the virus that showed up in wastewater testing for the area, and extended testing to try to catch the source.
However, the Taranaki DHB said number of people who lined up at testing sites yesterday was abysmal, with only 80 people from Hawera to New Plymouth getting tested.
The Health Ministry said more results from wastewater testing in the region will be released tomorrow.
Protests in New South Wales, Paris, Greece and Brazil
A special police taskforce in New South Wales is examining security camera and smartphone footage, trying to identify about 3500 people who joined a march yesterday against the Covid-19 lockdown.
Three and a half thousand people turned out in central Sydney.
The state's police minister said he had no doubt at least one of those people was carrying the virus, and has urged attendees to get tested.
Greater Sydney has been in lockdown for four weeks, but New South Wales reported a record 163 new infections yesterday.
Thousands also joined anti-restriction protests in Melbourne, protesters decrying the restrictions and vaccination regulations clashed with police in Paris, and in Greece police used teargas to break up crowds of protesters.
While in Brazil protesters rallied for the impeachment of their president Jair Bolsonaro, amid corruptions scandals and widespread criticism that he dismissed the severity of the disease and opposed masks and social distancing measures.
