The Government on Sunday extended COVID-19 restrictions in Wellington for a further two days.
Greater Wellington moved to COVID-19 alert level 2 last week when a Sydney tourist tested positive for COVID-19 after returning from a trip to the capital last weekend, with officials believing he caught the virus before arriving in Wellington.
Across the Tasman, Sydney residents are being warned its latest COVID-19 outbreak will get worse before it gets better - with cases forecast to surge in the coming days.
