Last updated 2pm 1 July 2024.

This data is updated weekly. All data on this page relates to cases recorded prior to 11:59 pm 30 June 2024.

 

An issue with COVID-19 reported cases and hospital admissions 'for' COVID-19 covering the period 27 May to 23 June led to counts published on 24 June to be an undercount. The underlying issue was identifed and resolved. Affected counts have been updated and will appear higher than previously reported.

*The change in total deaths with COVID may not be equal to the number of new deaths reported today. This is because deaths that occurred more than 28 days after a positive test that are subsequently determined to be unrelated to COVID are removed from the total.

 

Of the 47 people whose deaths we are reporting today: three were from Northland, five were from Auckland region, four were from Waikato, two were from Bay of Plenty, one was from Lakes, one was from Hawke's Bay, two were from Taranaki, two were from MidCentral, two were from Wellington region, four were from Nelson Marlborough, 11 were from Canterbury, one was from West Coast, two were from South Canterbury, seven were from Southern.

 

One was in their 40s, five were in their 60s, eight were in their 70s, 25 were in their 80s and eight were aged over 90. Of these people, 29 were women and 18 were men.

Definitions

Active case - confirmed Confirmed cases are people who have received a positive PCR test OR someone who has received a positive result on a Rapid Antigen Test. For more details, see the COVID-19 case definition.
Active case - probable A probable case is when someone is diagnosed based on their exposure to other people with COVID-19 and on their symptoms. 
Reinfections Reinfections are cases in an individual who reported a case 29 or more days previously.  
Recovered Recovered cases are people who had the virus, where at least 7 days have passed since their symptoms started and they have not had symptoms for 72 hours, and they have been cleared by the health professional responsible for their monitoring.

This graph shows the count of all cases of COVID-19 every day (all cases – confirmed and probable) since the first New Zealand case in late February 2020. The graph shows the rapid increase of daily cases from mid-February 2022 to early March 2022, driven by the Omicron variant.


From mid-March to mid-April 2022, cases rapidly declined, followed by a period of slower decline until early July. This was followed by a rapid increase in cases, peaking in August before a steady decline in new daily cases. Reported new daily cases hit their lowest since February 2022 in September 2022.

This bar graph shows the total cases and their status by health district and those with recent travel history.

The ‘At the border’ data group includes cases detected in managed isolation or quarantine facilities from the period when these were operating, as well as cases with recent travel history from after that time. They are not included in the district totals. Before 17 June, people in managed isolation or quarantine facilities were included in the total of the relevant district.

* Due to retiring the COVID-19 Protection Framework on 12 September 2022, the Ministry of Health no longer separately reports COVID-19 cases who have recently travelled overseas. These cases will be included in the weekly reporting on all COVID-19 community cases, but we will no longer distinguish between border and other cases.
