The country has moved to phase two of its omicron response meaning shorter isolation times and more relaxed rules around contact tracing.
There are an estimated 2658 people self iolating around the country at the moment, with 6305 active cases and 763 reported yesterday.
Yesterday, there were 40 people in hospital with the virus but none were in intensive care or high dependency units. So is the country ready for phase two of omicron?
