An Asian supermarket is the latest location of interest added to Auckland's list on Saturday.
Anyone who was at Tai Ping Asian Supermarket in Flatbush on Thursday, September 16 at around 2pm is advised to self-monitor their symptoms for 14 days, and seek a test if any develop.
The new location, added at midday on Saturday, joins other supermarkets, Kainga Ora Apartments Parnell and a BP Connect, which were added as locations of interest late yesterday.
A person infected with Covid-19 was at the Kainga Ora Apartments in Cracroft St last weekend on September 18, from 8am until 8pm on the following Monday.
People who were present at the location are asked to self-monitor for symptoms for 14 days, and if they do develop, to get a test and stay home.
As at noon on Saturday there were 135 locations of interest listed.
Earlier updates include a person with Covid-19 who was out shopping at Countdown Māngere East on Wednesday, the first day of Auckland dropping to alert level 3.
The affected person was at the supermarket for 45 minutes, between 9am and 9.45am on Wednesday.

Anyone who was at the chemist at the same time is told to stay home and get a test straight away.

Members of the public who were at the supermarket during that time are told to monitor their health for 14 days after their visit and to get a test if Covid symptoms start to show.
The day before - on Monday - Fresh Vege Mart was visited by a person with Covid-19 between 9am and noon. People there at the same time are told "stay at home" and get a test immediately.
The Tai Ping Asian Supermarket in Flat Bush has been identified as a location of interest after a visit from a person who tested positive for Covid on Sunday (September 19).
The affected time is between 10.30am and noon and the official advice, if you were there at the time, is to monitor your health for any flu-like symptoms for 14 days after being at the supermarket.
Pak'nSave Māngere - already on the locations list - has a new exposure time after a positive case was there on Monday last week, September 13, between 10am and 11.30am.

Nine exposure events at locations around Auckland were released by the Ministry of Health yesterday. On Wednesday, 13 locations were identified and the day before three locations were announced.
Despite the low number of places, the list continues to show that a number of people with the virus have been out in the community - shopping, doing laundry and visiting various businesses - in the last week.
The Mountfort Park Manurewa Sports Centre has been linked to at least one person with Covid on Monday between 5pm and 8pm.
Health officials have highlighted the steps at the sports centre, indicating someone was likely there exercising.
