Hundreds of people are being asked to stay home and get a Covid-19 test today after a Northland woman tested positive for the virus.
Businesses visited by Northland’s community Covid-19 case say they are “angry and frustrated” at not being contacted by health officials, with some resorting to Healthline for guidance.
Stuff has spoken to 11 businesses who say they weren’t contacted by the Ministry of Health, leaving some unsure whether to remain open or close for a deep clean. Some said they had been waiting on hold for hours in an attempt to get guidance from Healthline.
