The number of Covid-19 cases linked to a Matamata St Patrick's Day celebration has risen to 61.
Recent cases of the virus were close contacts of those who attended the Redoubt Bar, a Waikato DHB statement said.
Waikato residents who develop symptoms of coronavirus, such as a dry cough, fever or shortness of breath should visit their local Community Based Assessment Centre.
"The lockdown allows travel to these drive-through facilities," the statement said.
Rosewood Rest Home and Hospitals in Linwood has been named as the centre of the cluster of 16 confirmed and probable cases, up five in the last day.
Twenty of the residents have been moved to be treated at Burwood Hospital to ensure they're appropriately cared for, as the home is extensively cleaned, Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield said.
None of the people who'd been moved to hospital were there because of Covid symptoms, he said.
The privately owned facility has two specialised dementia care units and a total of 64 residents.
Auckland's Marist College remains the largest Covid-19 cluster in New Zealand, with 72 confirmed cases. Six new cases were announced in the last day.
The entire school of 750 students and staff was told to remain in strict self-isolation.
