One of the clusters, on the North Shore has 130 infected people with the median ages of 30 to 34, and the other is in Manukau Ward, with 100 cases and the same median age.
The Ministry of Health data released to the Herald shows there are eight active clusters, two contained and two dormant. Of the eight actives, just three are linked to the outbreak.
The other five are likely to have a genomic link, but have not yet been identified.
The clusters are spread across the region with cases in Manukau Ward, Waitakere, Manurewa-Papakura, and the North Shore. The median ages of all clusters – including recovered, contained and dormant only reaches to 34, with the youngest infected person being 15.
