Novel coronavirus update – 7th February 2020

The register for people who’ve self-isolated as a result of their travel to China will be operational from later today.

Healthline has been set up to register people and regularly check on their welfare and wellbeing while in self-isolation.

The Ministry’s current advice is that people should self-isolate for a period of 14 days if they’ve arrived in New Zealand, either from or via China since February 2. People who’ve specifically travelled to Wuhan or Hubei province prior to February 2 should also self-isolate.
