An Air New Zealand flight between Christchurch and Auckland is the latest high-risk location of interest to be added to the growing list.

Passengers seated in rows from 22 to 26 on flight NZ0566 from Christchurch to Auckland on Sunday between 6pm and 7.25pm are considered close contacts of a positive case and need to self-isolate immediately.

They also need to get a test immediately and then again on day five after potential exposure.

At midday today Secret Spot Hot Tubs in Rotorua and Liquor Barn in Lynmore were added as locations of interest.

The health advice was the same for these two new sites: Self-monitor for symptoms for 10 days after potential exposure. If symptoms develop, get a test and stay home until a negative result is received.
