From Checkpoint, 6:07 pm on 14 September 2021

Covid-19 numbers have taken a bit of a slide today with 15 new cases in the community - all in Auckland.

There are now 970 cases linked to the delta outbreak but almost 400 of those people have recovered.

Only 10 cases from the past fortnight are yet to be epidemiologically linked.

The Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield says the drop in the number of cases reported today is "encouraging" and indicates Auckland is on track to eliminate the virus.
