A west Auckland medical centre and pharmacy has closed for 48 hours after one of the country's four new Covid-cases visited the clinic.
An email from Glen Eden's Westview Medical Centre to a patient, seen by the Herald, says the patient was seen in the infection control area at the medical clinic and was wearing a mask.
"One of the four new Covid cases with no links to overseas travel had a test at a west Auckland clinic.
The patient was assessed and swabbed by one of our Dr's wearing full protective equipment," the email said.
"All surfaces were subsequently cleaned as per guidelines. On the advice of the Ministry of Health, Westview will close down for 48hrs from 11am today 12/08/2020.
